looking at picking up a new car, possibly, and spied a refined piece of german lovelyness

problem is its one of 200 made (limited edition) and as i do 50 miles a day the potential to destroy it is quite high

currently i have a van which is very clean, when its not coverd in crap, but i have a dont care attitude with it, and would actully have to look after a daily driver again

anyone had similar issues or done something similar

you do 50 miles a day, i do 15. makes sense to have a eco derv doing 60mpg

but it is a van, and you realy dont need a van!

Reason i wouldn't have a decent car for the daily commute

I do 90 miles a day in all weather conditions.. Car is never looked after as i don't get the time and generally have a heavy foot.

My views are buy something decent that will get you to and from work without breaking down and costing a fortune to run. I seen a pre registered Fiesta TCI for 6.8k with 40 miles on the clock earlier - that's the kind of car i would have.

However, i'd love something i could keep nice. Just no time at the moment

Get it bought!

Is it on a 98 S or 99 T?

If its what I'm thinking of my Dad bought one when they came out on a 98 S plate, just as the E46 was launched.

cars are built to be driven, with very few exceptions in my opinion.
