you should always buy on the condition of the car . lots of cars especially porches have had a front end refresh, does this make them a cat d as they have had some work done. my cup is a cat d had a light bump at the front, fully repaired by renault to a as new standard. so the car has no...

funny how people who want a new car never have the cash to go buy one outright, but are quite happy to lose £6-8 grand on owning one, it would take the fun out of owning one if i thought it was going to lose all that cash. i would always save half the amount needed then get the best deal for...
