Hey up...

I'm looking to buy a new car... Well, Nearly New, for about £10 to £12k...
Been thinking about a Nissan Primera or maybe a Mondeo... Not typical cars for a Porn Peddler, but just need a nice, comfortable family car.

Need something to get the kids and all the associated guff in... Pushchair, toys... more toys... shopping... etc.

Any ideas on other cars I should consider? Ideally something on a 54 plate.

I've got a very sensible Renault Megane and it's a nice car. Dead reliable, comfortable and roomy and apparently they're one of the safest cars on the road.

Next time I'll have a Ferrari. Silly car which costs a bomb to run ;)

Hi Rosie,

Had a look at the Megane's at the weekend... Not bad at all... but the shape of the new one doesn't really do much for me :(

We're hiring one on holiday in a couple of weeks though so I'll probably change my mind by the end of the week :) haha

btw... are you likely to have the webmaster program back up and running for UK Flashers? I'm looking for more sites to add to my British Link List & reviews site.

I'm a merc man....... a slightly older merc diesel would fit your requirement...... You'd be suprised at how cheap they are 2 run... and a good independant merc specialist would make servicing costs on a par with a mondeo.... plus u get a lower depreciation... make sure it has a full service history thought...

you sound like a mini van customer there. pushchairs, toys, family. just stay away from Chrysler Voyagers, especially with an automatic box.

No immediate plans, and if we do it'll be strictly invite only this time as all we got last time were dodgy sign ups and charge backs. I'll mail you privately if we do decide to run one again :)

Cheers for all food for thought. The sports unfortunately isn't an option though as you can't get me, the missus and a couple of kids in the back of a Lotus Elise :-/

Going to go and check out the Renault's today I think... See if they'll fit the bill...

Right, best get on with some work I suppose!

You can get them all into a Porsche so long as if you need a child seat you don't mind it being in the front. :)

scenics are good family cars, you'd get a good low milage one for 10 to 12k
