if ventilated then yes that usually means coolng… peugot needless to say were a five minute walk from me but are gone now.  was a peugot/kia dealership but now kia/suzuki i think…

kia seems to be my next logical choice..citreon are only a 5 min drive.

not sure there is much need for something that size. god knows the weight too. maybe towing but still think deisels are better for that.

yes if its heavyish then could be an issue with fluids leaking somewhere.. water, antifreeze, hydrolic fluid etc. but might just need a run if its just light. check your fluids are not dropping tho

so they were trying the ‘your a poor, thick woman crap’. as you say, how you managed for 3 years is anyone’s guess. almost the last bastion of males… bmw near here has woman sales boss..

they say the cost is 60 quid but you get it for about 40 if your motability. motability picking up the 20 quid. i would tell motability to shove it but its needed to take my son and me to hospital etc..

currently im not sure there is anything affordable on scheme that i will fit in bar a kona so may have to think out of box for next year.

might depend on when your 3 years for current car ends. btw you can keep current car until new one is ready to pick up. the new dealer can take it back for you to save going to 2 dealers

i agree. ive an ev and in general like it a lot. i dont do much mileage and deisels are thus out. so its either ev or petrol for next one, if there is one.

i certainly wouldnt hesitate for it to be petrol.  as its possibly my last i’d like it to be a nice one but who knows. certainly dont think ev’s currently have abilities to be numero uno… better batteries will be needed

my hyundai works like that. parking brake goes on after ignition is switched off, and yes auto hold needs selecting on switch on. parking brake stays on until you touch accelerator too.

i nearly bought a forrester about 9 years ago. was a nice motor but expensive to run. ended up with a top of range biggish skoda estate[forgot name]. that was a lovely car too. trouble is subaru are not close, nor are skoda or most dealers now. kia is very close so may consider them.
