I Feel Sooooo Old!

I have bought a new (ish) car based on:

Practicality Not Looks
Performance Not Performance
Usefulness Not Smile Factor
Insurance Costs Not Insureability

Whats more, I had to buy this car to be better equipped when pulling the Caravan....



Now where did I put my slippers?

Yeah but for the money I could have owned a Y / 51 Plate Disco With 50/60k on the clock.... not a one owner 23k one of these! It'll do about 7k a year and pull 1500kg of caravan a few times, nothing stress full, SWMBO uses the smart daily and her ped! I have the Fourtrak, Zuke and a Company Car too....

To be honest its a waste of money, but I guess that's why we all work....

At work we just fitted a wiper motor to a Hyundai Sonata.... it was expensive, but the owner claimed that appaty from servicing it was all he'd spent in 7 years.... servicing aside!

People on caravan forums rave abour them..... so we'll see....

Chilly out tonight :wink:

I did'nt know that Hyundai made a land cruser looks the same to me apart from the grill.
 I would be quite happy to be pulling a caravan around in it mate
