My 2nd car is a clio dci 80bhp remapped to 110bhp, I've done 60k in it since I bought it and its only needed the usual wear and tear parts
£20 a year tax, cheap ins, I can see almost 80mpg on a run at 70mph and I never see under 60mpg, top speed 125mph and will overtake easily
It's a dynamique which gives you s better interior, auto lights, wipers etc
Low ins, great little car and it's not a chore to drive, everyone is suprised how well it goes
I always say its cheaper than walking ! The fuel figures I quoted are not just off the on board comp but were manually checked ( fuel in, mileage done etc)
I've been to France, Scotland and would travel from n wales to Oxford weekly for work
A full tank will give approx 750 miles for £70-80 fill up
Parts are dirt cheap, I got front discs and pads off ecp with their regular offers they have for £30 !
