The Weekend

Today spent the morning looking at cars with Nicola, eliminating those that did not come up to scratch on the boot space front.

Current favourite make is Mazda with the Premacy and 323 on my list. They're also quite rare difficult to find at the right spec and price compared to Toyotas, Hondas, and Fords. Ford are off the list for being too pricey for what they are, or perhaps it's just Ringway Ford. Toyota Corrola is too small in the boot department, as may be the Honda. The Vauxhall Astra has a decent sized boot, but the seats don't fold down properly

The one small family car that measured up is the Peugeot 307, which has a decent sized boot and properly split rear seats. The Fabia Estate may be there as an alternative, as although it's actually a "supermini" rather than "small family", it has quite a lot of boot space.

Later while Nicola was at work trawling through boxes for SAGGA paperwork and my car's log book. Unfortunately it was not found so I have to pay £19 for a replacement. Which is better than what the garriage tried to convince me, that no replacements were being issued at present in attempt to cut down on thefts.
