Right, after having a sit down after receiving the repair quote for

So I'm looking for a motor to smoke about in, it's going to do big miles so ideally a diesel an cruise
Control  :evil:

I'm sure Chuff will back this view up entirely.

Bora/Seat Leon TDI and talk to someone like Rhys about getting cruise nailed into it if it doesn't have it.

Or halve the budget and buy a house brick: Golf3 TDI with cruise control.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
