Right, I have found myself at a crossroads on what to do with my car.
I currently have a 1996 Corsa Sport 1.4 16V. I do 250 miles a week just for commuting to work and back. I have clocked up like 35K in the last year and a half.
So I have decided on two options.
Do I sell up and buy a Renault Clio 1.5 Dci 65 for about £4200. Will be a nice 51 reg and chaep on fuel.
Or sell up and buy a cheap diesel for like £300, and buy a quick car. Then insure them both separately? Will be more running costs.

Depends on where your park it etc. If the car is say in the Tesco car park then go for a shitter and a fast car but if it looked after, say a private car park where people are nice then i'd go for the Clio. The cost of running 2 cars is shit

It's a new rule they have at Tesco; in order to make your groceries cheaper, you're not allowed to park nice cars in the car park.
