Tell me about: VW Golf 90 TDi, Mk4

[I get around]

Shows how different we all are For example I value having a nice "daily" very highly, as afterall it is where you sit for 99% of your mileage. I'd go as far as to say that i'd rather not have a weekend car at all rather than have a substandard daily.

Each to their own I guess.

Like I say, a daily is just there to do the job, get from A - B and thats it for me. At the weekend the car is for caning along a nice bit of road pushing your limits a bit and scaring yourself.

How on EARTH is insurance that much? Jeeesus.

 

[Jez]

Quite, but its absolutely not it for me or many many others

The 400 diesel was a good car, but oh so boring, so I thought it was time to get something more interesting, however I obviously didn't think it through properly with regards to my mileage.

Looking at an MG ZS TD tomorrow, maybe the best of both worlds.

The best of both worlds would involve removing your MGR blinkers.

Moar L diesel series fail

 

[mattyprice4004]

It's only a possible, but would do for now and they don't lose value. So a ZS120 would be better? Yeah...

 

[paradigm]

they don't lose value.

Something with no value cannot lose value. Simple mathematics. It doesn't however make it a good car.

A £50 volvo 740GLE wouldn't lose value, I wouldn't buy one however.

If a Rover 400 diesel was sold as it was boring why look at another Rover 400 diesel?

What about, get the golf, sell the 620ti and save money to get something nicer further down the line.

If you could eek 40mpg out of it and insure it for under a grand.

Is it a Maestro diesel? Are you going to deliver curries in order to afford to run your weekend car?
