Practical as man. Loads of room in the back!
You can do a lot worse than a Vectra mate. Dull, but cheap n cheerful and parts are plentiful. Gotta be a winner!
(I personally recommend a 1.5 D 106. Winnnnnnnnnn.

It's no bother unless you want to overtake in a short distance, or are trundling along a nation speed limit single carrigeway road and are then faced with a masssive hill lol.
SVO MPG makes up for all of that though.

Mpg is the new Bhp.
Mad max should have a Bluemotion. Not a blown v8.

I was talking to my mate and he agrees (dunno about Mad Max though lol).
He has an MR2 Turbo and a diesel Civic, and is with me on the fact that squeezing good miles from the tank is as much 'fun' as having your foot down!
His Civic has economy lights too, so get them all on and it's like Connect fucking 4.

A few more, but never as many as the trusty Pug he sold on.

It is as comfortable as a house though.
And has an electric rising television.
