Tbh if something catastrophic happened to the dog kennel i'd probably get a sub £1000 T5 estate, plenty of room for the dog and an engine you can get power from without spending a fortune, plus I could park it anywhere and not give a f*ck if it got keyed or dented.
Be on the look out for a Cmax and an estate in the supermarket carpark and point them out to her, let her figure out she'll essentially be driving a big f*cking minibus.
I'm on my second gearbox after the first one shredded itself at 70mph, I learnt the hard way to check the box oil every now and again, it had all leaked out the selector shaft seal, the replacement leaks too but gets topped up every couple of months, thankfully the engine's as strong as an Ox.
On occasion, owning a Clio means i've had no choice but to learn about cars otherwise i'd be permanently at the garage handing over wads of £20 pound notes every time it needs something.
I have a really big gap in my memory from around 11:30 - 2am, I remember being convinced that the band were going to stop playing after Queens Don't Stop Me Now, (scene missing) next thing I remember was eating Bratwurst and struggling to stay concious.
