    New company car.

    well, some of you will remember my company car choice poll before the databased crashed...

    well it was a totally pointless exercise.

    as i said in the previous thread, that was the initial list and would be subject to change. when i said change i thought that might mean the list got bigger. how wrong was i.

    they got all the quotes from the lease company and it turns out only 2 cars were witihn the £300 budget i have. this includes the lease companies maintenance package.

    the end list was a Focus 1.8 TDCi LX Estate (115bhp) or a Peugeot 307 HDi SW (90bhp)

    needless to say i chose the focus eventhough the Peugeot was slightly higher spec.

    they are going to put the wheels in motion next week inregards to ordering it, its then i will get a choice of colours. chances are it will be on the standard colours and not a metalic option, but i'm going to try for Colorado Red. the other options are Diamond White and Deep Navy

    here are a few pics for illustrative purposes only





    my car will be a brand new 06 reg tho.

    best choice i feel.

    Bet you cant wait for the day.

    Not only will you now feel old and look old, but your car will make everyone think you are over 40.

    well at least its yellow.... still can't get the image of a wheelchair in the back out of my head tho.

    i like the focus. so what if its got a big of a "grandad" image.

    its going to cost be £54 a month, its far more fuel efficent than the GT and if it gets broke i don't need to worry about fixing it.
