    New Car

    I'm planning on buying a new car to replace the Ford Taurus.
    It should be under $20,000 about $10,000 maybe more. It should be fuel effiecient, reliable nad cheap to repair. I would probably perfer an used car as they're cheaper. The car should be able to seat at least four and be rust proof.

    one model that I'm intrested in is the City Golf, it's the last gen Golf that's been renamed.

    Do you have the Suzuki Swift here? It could be a good option.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    What about a honda accord, well built, reliable, and economic. Boring though.


    Also, whats the point of a diesel in a country where petrol is practically free?

    Anticipation that someday petrol will no longer be practically free?

    Honda Acty van from Japan.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Accords are boring? I have a much more spirited driving, much sharper handling and better fuel economy, nice VTEC roar in an Accord compared to my 1.8T A4. Not to mention the lower maintenance, lesser hassle and better interior space of the car.

    ok.... slipping on a slight gradient sucks ..... and it's not as refine as my A4, the steering sucks to grip on and so on..... but it's just far far far more sensible than many german sedans.

    USED CIVIC. much better.

    You CAN find a Volkswagen Jetta TDi, if you look hard enough.

    Can't go wrong with a Volkswagen Golf though
