    Nice one lol
    For 8 miles a week I would recommend you to buy a bicycle and put the rest of your money in the bank, or under your bed ;-)

    Hmmm. Did I just fall into the silly trap?
    I should have guessed by the "I have 75k" + "I need something with cheap tax"

    Doh.

    It must be a big shop if the drive around it! Would you not just get a trolley like most people do when in a shop?

    75k but not a french car...dude for 75k you can buy an entire showroom filled with brand new sparkling french cars.

    75k and you want an economic diesel... Buy that orange Gallardo and have 15+k left for a few years running costs!

    Or just hand in your man card now... :D
