GF wants a new car
« on: 26 May 2011, 18:34 »
Hey all at the moment my gf has a ford ka 1.3 but she wants to get something a bit better which wont be hard  :wink:

Budget of under £5k something with low mileage and roughly the same size as the ka. So far she has seen a 206? But im not too keen on pugs  :smiley: 

I recommended a polo but she doesnt like the look of them.

Maximum size engine she would go to is a 1.6 which is why i also recommended a mini which i know she likes but how good are they?

What would people recommend?

Cheers  :smiley:

ye i know seems alot doubt if it came to parting with that much money she would  be ok with it lol. Im thinking more realisticly between 2k and just under 4k. She wants to move out and get her own flat so i know she wants to spend as little as possible but at the same time get a car that will last for an age  :smiley:

Im hoping she gets a mini then atleast i will be able to drive it without being  :embarassed: like i was with the green ka lol and the same with the pug 206  :grin:
