Newer Cars!?

[Strikeforce]

My auntie has a 59 plate focus and that shat its power steering pump at around 20k miles
My recent 06 astra that i bought (now sold) was full of problems so dont think spending x amount of money will result in 100% reliablility

Also as said before live within you're means!
Forgive me if im wrong here but you come accross as a bit spoilt i.e no job but still want to be driving nice cars with high spec, you are going to get a massive shock when you join the real world like the rest of us, if you didn't live with you're parents right now with no job you wouldn't be worrying about if a car has cruise/leather you would be worrying about you're next meal.

I do understand about having a nice reliable car with nice toys but dont we all? The fact is most of us can't afford hence why we have 306's which with good servicing and general maintenance provide just that with the added benefit of looking far superior to other cars in their class

Imo don't borrow a large amount of money to buy a new car, borrow a little to get the golf fixed or just go out and buy a new car with the money you can actually afford to spend.

Just my 2ps worth
