    Morning gang
    was just about to post about the lovely sunshine when Karlie put up that car pic....rang hubby as v interested but can't afford it.....now the sky has gone very black although very humid still.
    I will take this as a sign that I should not be looking at what I can't afford :)

    Nanny, how long did it rain for in your neck of the woods ??

    I have to admit I agree with you...however some of these small cars really do hold the value very well....tentively looked a while back and much of the 6 month old stuff was really not as good as we would have hoped or liked it to be...


    We are kind of looking at something which whilst would be registered to DS1 would be used mainly by me rather than the family car...and then with the added bonus of ds2 being only a couple of years behind ds1 transferring ownership to him when the time comes for him to learn...so its probably going to stay in the family a little longer than learn and sell it on...


    Jury is still out both ways TBH and we have around 6 months to look round...but the small insurance group 1 cars look ideal.
