The corolla hybrid is how I would go as well. My last company car. Although I would go for the estate for the boot space as the batteries make the hatch boot space very small.

When I retired I wanted a RAV 4 AWD as I tow a caravan but they said it was an 18 month lead time!!!!! So I went for a second hand Volvo XC60 (18 plate) just over 3 years ago. Amazing car, but I spoke to someone in service who said that I got the last of the series not made in china and since then the build quality has gone south!

I worked for a co. that make wind turbines and they decided to make them in china. Fast forward 3 years and the bearings are failing!!!!!! Had to get a massive loan from their Government to see them though the cost of replacing them.

When are they going to learn!!!!

You cant go wrong with a Kia, 7 year warranty, 6 on paintwork, big range of small to big cars

yes but can you really class a Dacia as a car?
It's like going back to the days when the Russian company Lada badged a very basic Fiat 124 without any extras except a starting handle!

So what did you buy?????

I ride a GS scooter with my hair cut neat
I wear my war time coat in the wind and sleet.

Totally agree groover. Surely Labour will be backpedaling on this promise before long.

As for a new car, I fancy the new Bentley Continental.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

The trouble is that the manufacturers will have a cut off for building RHD cars. They can't just change it at the last minute when labour change their minds again at the last minute. They are as thick as a post.
