I need a car as when I'm woring in the office I have a 60 mile round trip, so getting things converted or worked on is going to be an issue. It's already been a royal PITA and I'm on time off just now, going back in the office on Tuesday and I'm looking to collect the car in the next couple of days so I can at least get about.
I know it's not the best thing to do but I just cant see the point on spending more that the car is worth to fix it.


I'm also looking to see if I can get a trade in against another car, just hope they are quite busy the day I go in and dont take it for a drive.
