    Morning mot and i-t, too.
    You've both needed this break and the benefit of it comes through, despite the other biggies you're having to tackle.
    Have you let all and sundry in your widest possible circle know you're needing another cheap runner, cheap tax if poss., vehicle?
    The grapevine's tendrils are the most likely way that one will find its way to you, mot.
    Extend that possibility by mentioning it to EVERYONE with whom you cross paths.
    Good luck with WW tomorrow - yes, mine's tonight after Gym !!!. today.
    pm re:ykw.
    Warm hugs to you both.

    Hi Silvercar,

    I have a Citroen C3 1.4 Desire at the moment - it is an 03 plate and petrol. According to PArkers Guide it is worth about £3500 as it has low mileage too.

    What I would like is a reliable car with an engine size up to 1.4, 5 doors if hatchback, petrol and cost up to £2000.

    Any ideas????
