My old DC5 was perfect for a family wagon.

Its a huge PITA dealing with a baby travel system and a 3 door car IMO
My Evo IX cost me over £2000 in repairs in 12 months. Cylinder head rebuild and AYC pump going.
Saying that, the roof on my S2000 has seen better days, and they're not cheap to replace. Plus if my suspension bolts are seized then that will cost. :lol:
I ran an Evo 9 as a daily for around 6 months I think, 400 miles a week. Never again to be honest.
Wasn't just the fuel, it was the servicing and the fact it's not a great commuting car.400 miles a week is a lot.
I do roughly 200 a week and a tank was 220ish. So I was happy with that.
Wasn't just the fuel, it was the servicing and the fact it's not a great commuting car.
It's not the cost, it's the hassle of either having to take a day off work or wasting most of a Saturday to get to a trustworthy garage. And most garages don't have many open slots on Saturdays for servicing.
It's not a bad car, but after using the Focus for a year, the Audi for a bit and now the Accord, I just couldn't commute that distance in one again.
Then there's the fact that I started driving it like a cnut, doing 7+ car overtakes etc. :lol:
