Shortest I've had a car was a Renault 21 quadra turbo, I drove it home, got out and after looking at it on my path took it straight back and got all my cash back - it was  :sick:

Gimme your polo, go on, then you can buy that 90  :grin:

no, 2 people have expressed interest already as they expect me to sell within 6 months

 :laugh:

You can't blame them now can you?  :grin:

most of my cars last 6 months at least, only 3 cars lasted under 6 months, and one was only 4 days, to that records beaten  :grin:

What was that!?

well I have just been and filled the old girl up

385 miles on 30 litre ,

so by my maths thats 57mpg ish

Which will do for me knowing its been hauling 2 sets of wheels to london

one set back from brum

and had me using and abusing it

so a good mix of driving returning a good mpg  :cool:
