Hi Folks
Yes, I still need to get rid of the Metro but I'm also seeking something to replace it and, if it's cheap enough, I can buy without having to flog the Metty first!
Only "must haves" are the ride must be comfortable and I must be able to stretch my legs when driving. The Metro leaves me too scrunched up!
Something with retro appeal preferred but I'm kind of desperate now so a sheddy later motor would suffice. Gawd, I've even been considering Mondeos! I think I need help...
Reason for this big need is that the Metro is painful and the 2CV out of commission at the moment. The H Van guzzles too much fuel for the commute and, when I've got to get back to Northants, is way too slow!

Well if we are all pimping our wares...
I too have a lovely chevette up for grabs. I wouldn't say they were really great mile munchers though,.
I have a slightly scruffy old Pug 205 dieseasel coming in shortly. Cheap, economical and french - ergo comfy. They must be alright for stretching your legs too - both my dad and my bro has had 205's and both are a good 6ft++ (yeah, I got the dwarf gene.)

Sorry Dime Bar! We haven't done an Acclaim Buyers Guide though so I'll add it to the potential list.
