Ok so this has been my 64000 dollar question for a while.
Have loved the car during the last 2 years and still do. Had niggles with it like SRS in the past even today for 30mins...just one of those things with this car.
Then the 4 wheel aligment which is a bit better now...ie its goes straight to some extent. The worst part was the alloys at the dealership but I've learned not to trust some dealerships...however Harrogate are excellent in every way.
So warranty time is here so me thinks i need something a little smaller now that the 4.85m car is little tight in the integral garage...wife still thinks the utilities have to share the space with my CAR....huh.
So rather than renew warranty...I;ve been looking around. The choice is between..waitfor it...........................................................................

The new BMW 320d/325i.....the DARK SIDE....or the boring Audi A4..with the long brace Jaw....or the new Lexus IS 250/ 220d avail Nov 05.
Seen the beemer in the flesh and several have driven past can't see it makes you glance twice.....the BMW 530d sport(e60) is a diff story.
The Lexus IS250 is an attractive car. Pics at

The precrash is like the Mbz S class presafe which is a freebie on a car in this class. It use radar to monitor obstacles ahead and primes the brake assist if you need to stop quicker.....
It has keyless go as std and button start ignition.
I haven't decided yet but the dealer has offered me book value for my car and has asked me to leave a non=returnable deposit of £1000.
Not sure what to do..but he will give me about 20K in cash..which i will bank and then come November 05 or Feb(for diesel) i will put that towards the new car....which makes sense since i have a 2nd car anyway.
Bye the way my wife likes the Civic..and can't wait i get rid of the mbz ....She even has suggested i go for the new Civic in jan06......what do ladies know about cars.....well mine anyway......
What do u think of the new lexus, 3 series, new Civic?
