Well I was thinking of selling my classic wagon and getting something more respectable like a BMW 320d or something.

But I'm not sure the sums add up.

I guess my classic does 20 mpg or so?

What's a diesel gonna be? 40 mpg min?

Say I do 5000 miles a year (I do less).

About £1750 fuel on the classic and half that for the diesel saving ~£850 quid (just roughly - I know diesel costs a tad more).

Yeah insurance would be a lot better though. Maybe save at least £500.

Thing is my classic is worth bugger all, maybe I just just run and abuse it for 2-3 years until it is knackered?

How much would a £15k diesel depreciate in 2-3 years? Might brake down and cost a packet to fix? I could just put the Classic in the bin if something bad went wrong.

Where's pslewis?

 

just make ps lewis;s day and buy a honda diesel.

dont you know there rapid and pull like a train, and return great mpg, great residuals ect lol

plus the girls will love you haha

 

Ha ha but seriously a Civic is not on my radar, never will be. I will never buy a wrong wheel drive car or one with triangular exhaust tips.

Anyway he bought one vs a new Impreza (or something), to save about £150 a year running costs.

 

Suggest you PM PS Lewis and ask him!
