Anyway forgot to mention about the car, couldnt get the bonnet open on it as the cable must have been broken. Is there a way of getting them open? Tried pushing on the bonnet while the handle was pulled, and pulling at the same time.

I'm loving the Astra SRI at the minute. Refuse to buy one even though i have enough in the bank. I'd rather have 5k in the bank than a car a few months younger than my pug. Come 6 months, it will have scractches all over it along with a few stone chips.
Personally think you're downgrading too. Loved my Corsa, but can't see myself in another one

I'm not changing my car for some time. Bought it new so know it's history. Mechanically its been looked after and has 45k warenty left.
As soon as it starts troubling me, is the day i start looking for a new car.
I quite like having money in the bank at the moment.
