Car sales
Went car shopping today...
Had done some reading online, but of course, mostly girly stuff like
..... colour,
..... CD player (mp3 player wanted),
..... space for girly junk...
test drove a few...
... for noise,
... how well it accelerates uphill,
... being able to look over the steering wheel,
... how cold the aircon gets,
... more girly stuff.
Looking for something around $20K and small and prefer hatchbacks.

Thought I had it all worked out... the Honda Jazz
- loved most bits
- but no mp3 player
- and apparently easiest car to break into
The Mitsubishi Colt came in burgundy (the colour I'd like),
- but a bit loud and funny gear stick thing
but someone said consider the
Suzuki Swift...
- safe and reliable and
- cheap
And apparently RAC said its Yaris is good
VW Polo rate high, but expensive and no auto in the new range

Choices, choices......

The Suzuki and the Yaris has my vote girl. =) I think the Swift is fantastic. A friend of mine owns one and she's lovin' it! =) hehehehe.
Parents never really like Mitsubishi for some reason, and for the same "whatever" reason, I don't like it either.. Hehe. =)
But yeap, those are my 2 cents worth.
missin' ya!

Have you looked at a renault clio? Not sure if you even have them in oz, but they're very cute and even the standard non-sporty ones are fun to drive. (irish stu)
Irish stu - THANKS for reading and commenting on my blog!
Unfortunately, like all other European cars, the Renault is way out of my budget thanks to our tax system. Japanese and Aussie cars are cheaper.
The Suzuki sounds good, its the second recommendation I've gotten. Want to try the Yaris this weekend...
