Also chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them.

Loved the 80's!
I'm struggling as to what to get. I look at the most reliable brands, Lexus, Toyota etc, then I look at the fuel consumption, then I look at the models that fit both of those and go "Ugh - what the hell were they thinking !". On the rare occasion I find one that meets the first two criteria, I look on Youtube for reviews and find a bunch of proper reviews calling it a bag of shit. Either that or I can't find any at all in my budget (which I keep increasing in the hope of finding something).
I can't get a car that does less than 47mpg (real mpg, not the Narnia-esque bollocks the manufacturers quote).
I know everyone has said Honda Civic - but..... I'm really struggling to like the look of them. The new shape is better, but it still reminds me of a slice of cake on its side.
I keep coming back to this Lexus LS220D in Cardiff.... but it's too thirsty...

The IS250 auto (petrol) is virtually bullet proof (I've had two). Not too good on mpg though, 28 to 38 mpg depending on your journeys.
I'd definitely stay Korean or Japanese.
I've got my eye on this one right now...

BUT..... I've now done some digging online and all references to the seller come up with 404 errors (looks like they've pulled all advertising) and looking at the place on Street View, I wouldn't fancy walking down there at night.... They look like a right grubby setup - so I might keep searching !

Headlight bulbs are a PITA to change though as you need to remove the headlight unit from the car to do it.
My wife had a Mk5 1.9 tdi which she bought at 3 years old, and it was cheap to service (good independent), economical (about 52mpg) and very good to drive too. We gave it to a friend when it was 10 years old and it would still have sold for about £3700 at the time. It's still running well. Proper good reliable car.
We both currently drive Golf GTDs although I'll be changing to a petrol when my commute gets shorter (I really fancy a used RS4)

An estate would have been better but this is local....

a) being violently t-boned by some cunt cutting across 5 lanes of dual carriageway without looking
b) hitting a deer at about 50mph when it runs out in front of you at night
Don't ask how I know
Doesn't matter whether the car is local or not, you must be prepared to travel for the RIGHT car. Travel for an estate as that's what you really want. Guitars can be flipped every two weeks or so, cars tend to loiter for a little longer....get one you'll be happy with for a while.
