Title: Lifestyle change = Car Change?
Post by: AJPB_GTD on 25 March 2016, 08:26
My Car GTD (mk6)
Mrs Car Seat Ibiza Toca (1.4)

My old job = 9-5, 100 miles a day (hence the diesel)
My new job = shift work 4 days on 4 days off, commute = 250 meters!

Mrs works a 9-5 and commutes 20 miles each way.

I would b grateful if you guys and girls could advise as to whether we now need 2 cars? if we do what cars? I like drving and we have no kids, we could do a straight swap but im not a huge fan of the seat, so I was thinking give the mrs the GTD and swap the seat in for Fiesta St? let me know what you think  :smiley:

If you like driving, and the Mrs uses the car a lot, you need (need is strong, but let's be honest, you want two) cars.

Havnt driven the ST but it's hard to ignore all the people who rave about them. Personally, I would go old school and get a classic "drivers" car for you to enjoy in your time off.

Sell the Ibiza, see if you can cope with 1 car, if not, buy something interesting for yourself :)
