Tbh I know bugger all about cars, got my last one a couple of years ago and its time to change it as ive had enough of it.
Basically run a 1.4 petrol engine and its lousy uphill with the bikes on the back it just struggles. That big hill climb on the way to CYB and Scotland it doesn’t want to play.
Day to day I don’t use the car at all, its just a 40 mile run to Cannock once a week, then once a month a run to wales and Scotland 3 times a year if im lucky. Before someone says hire a car, I need to have one due to family commitments and you never know when I might need it.
I used to run a little citreon 1.6 petrol which was great, but too small. So I after some advice is a 1.6 diesel the solution? was looking at a DS3 or last gen of Focus? or a bigger petrol engine? due to the amount of time it will just sit on a driveway?
