Thinking of selling up, getting rid of the Astra H 1.8 SRI again
Would be nice to save a little bit of cash on tax and fuel tbh, however the car has been reliable so changing to something else could end ucosting the same on maintenance.
The possible options would be going back to a corsa, but a D this time, the 1.4 SRI or
fiesta MK7 zetec s 1.6
Mini Cooper 1.4 or 1.6
A low powered diesel may be a option though i dont put in the miles tbh

5 Miles a day and you want to save on fuel? How many miles you doing on the weekend? Ive gone from a 1.8 Mondeo to a 3.0 Lexus and the mileage I do (about 20 a week if that) I barely notice the difference.
