Go like stink, driven a hatch a while ago. Can be megga bucks when go wrong, but hey, we're all Ducati owners, we're used to that already!

Dave W is a bit of a guru with cars, worth a U2U..

get a new one, mega spec, mega deals (push the dealer), dont break down much (not absolutely sure about warranty problems but I think I would see most if an issue)....in summary shed loads of car for little money...bad press, bit old fashion but MG touches arent bad..and its british (JUST!!)

if youre looking new and want something reasonable size, Octavia great car! get past teh badge (if you can) and youre driving cheap VW/Audi technology with higher spec....superb luxury but bit thirsty.....oh and all models fairly reliable.

Mate of mine had the smaller Z MG and had two gearboxes before he handed it back to the lease company (company car for well known software company) after the gearbox locked all the wheels up and spun him around on the M4 on the way to work in the morning!

They argued about it unti lhe told them what went wrong, then they just took the keys back and apologised!

ST220 every time. Not as quick as it could be,but cracking engine, good spec, good handling. Mine's done 60K in 2 yrs and has a 100% reliability record.
Downsides are HUGE depriciation and a little thirsty.

A couple of guys at work have had them as compnay cars...and theyve had there fair share of problems too unfortunatley. Sad really..whats happened to MGR..especially after BMW stitched them up by flogging them and keeping the mini...

On the subject of cars..im opting out of the company car scheme and im looking for a CLK200 or 270 diesel...my company cars meant to be going back on the 23rd and ive done bugger all about finding my own motor yet !!

So..if anyone sees one of the above in there local press..let me know !!

Cheers
Nat
