Summary

I haven't a clue what I'm doing behind the wheel of a car and I'm a cheap ass!

Never ever ever ever...buy a proper car not rehashed rubbish, they have no place on the market atall.

Something without a Kia badge or Hyundai badge or Chrysler.

£0

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Everything from snapped cam belts to leaking sumps to snapped cams, and the most common faults gearboxes (auto and manual) going bang for fun. The gear linkage is a joke like waving a stick in the Albert Hall even from new!
What's most practical about your car?
It's certainly not the MPG or the seat arrangement because it is terrible!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
None they should come with a customary brick wall for you to drive them into god why would you buy one ever?
