Right I'm bloody sick of the 6 so it's got to go!
Nah only joking! Had a meeting at work today and we have now been given a choice of two vehicles. At the moment I've got a skoda Octavia 1.9tdi but it goes back in November and unfortunately these are no longer an option. I'm having a bit of trouble deciding what to get though. Haven't got to give my option for about another 2 months but want to decide soon as I will be stuck with the thing for 3 years!
So the choices are
New shape Kia Ceed (not out yet)
Pros:
Cruise control, climate control, trip computer, decent stereo
Cons:
Car tax is the same as the skoda. About £2900 a year. It's a Kia, boot isn't overly huge
Citroen Berlingo van
Pros:
3000L of space for my tools and stock, don't have to keep it as tidy, tax is dirt cheap until April 2013 when it will be the same as the Kia
Cons:
It's a van, only has 3 seats, not very well spec'd
It has to be comfortable! I do about 3000-4000 miles a month so need to be comfortable so what I'm asking really is if anyone has driven the Berlingo and how comfortable they are on long runs and town driving.
