Herself did that to her car. Then she did it again, and again another time.
I fixed it by adopting a philosophical approach, thinking there’s worse things happen, and now I no longer notice and we all just get along.

It’s an ugly looking bus though (the Ford that is).

Beauty is in the eye of those making the repayments

T cut will take a lot out

Looking at buying a crossover or small SUV.

For crossovers im looking at a Kia Stonic or Ford Fiesta Active. If I wanted to spend a little more and go for small SUV, and I have the budget for it, I’m stuck between a VW T-Roc, Audi A2, Volvo XC40 and Honda H-RV.

Any advice / recommendations from TFK-motorheads appreciated.

The Volvo is a solid motor. Ages well too.

On my second T Roc, no complaints easy on juice, comfortable front and back and a good sized boot

Are they a bit pricey to maintain with parts and servicing etc? My old man used to swear by Volvo. Well when I say Volvo, I mean one volvo car. He had it so long it ended up maxing out the milage clock. A dog of a yoke. His cousin took it off him, took out the petrol engine and stuck in a diesel one.

How do you find the plasticky interior? It was something I was surprised at, seeing as a T Roc is a jacked up Golf. Even your entry level Polos have the soft furnishing interior.
Most people might think it’s something small, but the soft more expensive interior is a kind of deal breaker for me. The plastic ones tend to develop scratches and also give off more light when the sun comes out. If I’m resting my arm on the door frame, I want it to be soft too, not cheap and hard.

Is that not possible? His cousin was driving it around for a few years after.

How much would you be talking for a new alternator?

€200 with a bit of margin. Alternators are about €130/150 and a few quid labour.
I’d be terribly surprised of you were stabbed for €300 or more but it’s dependent on the brand/make.

Any handy would recondition your old on for around €50 or so
