• £3K to £4K to spend 25 Mar 2007 (Forum)
  the upcoming MOT without too many problems. I have been considering a 1.8/2.0 P11-144 Primera or Honda Accord.

  Renault and wait for it ....BMW. Toyotas not what they were and Nissans no better. Honda still pretty good and Mazda consistent. Merecedes he tells me isn't bad at all but A class is not up to scratch. I asked what he was now driving - an Audi S3 that has been excellent. Interesting chat though.
