    not sure many will be with it being Sunday.........depends I guess on the size of the garage ? :confused: Saw a lovely 55 plate Polo today. Had to get some petrol and there is a small garage next to it. 4k _pale_ but really nice - manual though :rolleyes:

    I am going running tomorrow too Sal. A friend wants to meet me for coffee, mid morning rather inconveniently, so am trying to decide whether to get up VERY early, or go after the coffee.

    Cold still making me feel ropey in the mornings, so a later one would be more pleasant, I think.

    That seems like quite a good price BB, Ive been looking at all sorts and I would love a VW but just too expensive. Have seen this though

    Diesel, not bad mileage and good price for an 02 plate

    But will you go if you leave it later :confused: I find if I don't get it out the way and have other arrangements first it often gets put on the backburner.
    Am really really looking forward to getting out and just running, running running for as long as I can

    Not sure - I hope so. it is going to be my excuse for not staying long, so that *should* guilt me into going. :rotfl:

    it's a great price - just a shame it's manual though - and about 2.5k over my budget :rotfl:

    that's a nice looking car - diesel is good also.
