Decent cars, thought you'd have got a 406 though if you were after something like that. Can't kill mine!

Fair play for saving it, they're all getting scrapped recently, getting rarer and rarer.

As you know, I'm a huge fan of these. If I didn't have the caravan to tow I'd get one but tow bars are near impossible to find!

406. Honestly, they are brilliant. I'm bored of mine but I can't get anything else because nothing else does everything so well for £250!
