marzman Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 If she's doing such low mileage, a petrol would be the better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 If she's doing such low mileage, a petrol would be the better option. +1. Short trips all the time in some diesel cars can lead to problems from what I've read. What about a Honda CRV?

Ekona Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I actually had to google what a CR-V looks like. My god, what a bland, boring, white good of a car that is! Please, get something more interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I actually had to google what a CR-V looks like. My god, what a bland, boring, white good of a car that is! Please, get something more interesting! Nice to drive and good interiors though. We looked at that and the Santa Fe when we found out Helen was pregnant. Then we found it was twins and ended up with a bus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I've no doubt they're great cars in terms of practicality, but if even the silver BMW owner says they're dull...! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowhereboy Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Don't get a juke! There bloody everywhere.... One of the nissan factorys is based in Newcastle and all the little chav scum bags get them cheap due to working for them. I can't go from A to B without seeing some radgie driving one of these and thinking he's in a sports car. To be fair it may be a great car but thats put me right off them.

ioneabee Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I had a courtesy Juke once - interior plastics are awful (the one I had anyway - probably poverty spec), but wasn't impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
