Anybody got one/had one?
Looking at cars just to be prepared if mine is a write off, and seen a few of these at the right price. 2003/2004 models. Specs look very similar to the corsa's that I have been used to, cheap tax and insurance.
BUT there must be about 5 in a few miles, which makes me think either loads of people bought them and they are good but now trading for a newer one, or that they are rubbish and people are getting rid of them (i overthink a lot ) _________________

Don't know much about citroen but we swear by renault meganes , some people don't like the shape but they are very very cheap to run especially if you get a 1.5 diesel. _________________

I hate my renault! Did love but its a gas guzzler 1.4 petrol and the electrics omg I hate them!!!! All four windows have gone luckily its a know fault so renault paid 75% of the bill but still £400 the keycard has broke and renault want £180 for a new one, the auto electronic fella said all the cars he deals with ie bad electrics are french. I am personally looking at vauxalls and fords at the min xx _________________

I am considering the renault for the cheap tax, but would probably go for the 1.5 clio. Also when I checked auto trader there are no older meganes in my area, and I wont have a high budget.
Plus I will need to get something quick.
I really loved my corsa's, but the latest one I had was horrible to handle in the snow, and someone I work with has the same model and year and said the same, so thats put me off having another one. _________________
