Rachel has had a fantastic job opportunity come up with ridiculous wages but its a little way out of Reading, not too far but a distance where using the Clio it would soon disintergrate and using the Astra would mean it would be worth 50p in a year.

So IF she gets the job we have far too much money tied up in the Astra and will need something decent and econmical to get her too and from work.

We've got the Clio now, I reckon I could go just as quick around a track in that as the Astra, and that was part of the reason it was bought with this in mind.

I'm not happy about Rachels potential income being vastly better than mine but if our plans come together I'll be working with my dad soon and that will equal things out

Life story over.


sounds like it's worth losing the astra. in the long run you'll be better off no doubt.
