So I'm expecting lots of sucking up from the missus for a while (well, for at least a week I hope. )
Its been a hell of a search to be honest. I started with the idea of getting a W202 and then figured that I could get a W203 for £1500 more.
Then I found that very few W203's have leather unless I was prepared to throw a couple more at it but I didn't really want to throw more money at a car that I know will rust (we tend to keep our cars for a while). Buying a 2004 or later model wasn't on the cards as I didn't want to commit to any finance.
So the search began for the best value car with as many toys and luxuries one can get for under £6k and after much head scratching and both soul searching and car searching I *think* have got pretty close.
So what did I buy?
Anyone hazard a guess on what I ended up buying? Come on, think £6k, toys, a bit of luxury and value. What would you choose?
