    I am in the same predicament..I need something for motorway use. Think I will pick up a Clio 172 later in the year and keep my 5 as a weekend car.

    Great looking car by the way!

    Re: bumbble bee £2600 leicester

    Forgive me for spamming your thread.............but i reakon you'll regret selling this?

    By the looks of the pictures it is a lovely example and one worth holding onto - it is also (in my opinion) quite unique in that colour

    If its just motorway miles and reliability then get a cheap run around?

    I'll go away now
