The Morris Minor was the best car of the second half of the 20th century. You can get them refurbished and upgraded to modern standards. Don't believe all that rubbish about Beetles, 2CVs etc. They may even be able to get you an automatic.

I can recommend the new astra - used prices have dropped significantly and GM/opel have really upped their game. I'm unsure what the automatic version is like though.


Stay awayt from any small engined diesel if you are a city dweller - The EGR valves can't cope with it.


If warranty is a concern Kia is a good option.


If its access and space maybe a skoda yeti is a good alternative.

I'm not sure that the OP really gives a sh*t on our opinions of cars for him.


In his own words: 'don't-really-care-what-to-get-as-long-as-it-gets-us-around-and-does-not-leave-us-in- the-gutter-too-often'


And then to prove a point he adds: 'We are going to test drive a Kia and see how that goes'



That aside, the thread has nicely evolved into a kind of top-gear-type-cool-wall


So I love Jeremy's choice, is that a Pacer ?


I used to drive one of these, which was obviously inspired by your dream car & boy do I wish I had it now.

    • Another recommendation for Nick. Copying below the review I have just left for him on Google: We don’t usually leave reviews for people online but are making an exception for Nick. He made fitted wardrobes for our loft conversion and did an absolutely fantastic job. The wardrobes are beautiful. Nick is passionate about producing a quality product, and also one that is bespoke to his clients’ needs. He guided us through the design to establish how we would actually use the space and built something that is fantastic. From start to finish the process was quick and each day he and his assistant Sean left the space tidy. I’m not sure we are easy people to please so the fact we are leaving a 5* review (indeed leaving a review at all) speaks volumes about what a great job Nick (and Sean) did. Nick also built a cupboard for our downstairs bathroom as part of the job and again it is brilliant. We would recommend them to anybody. 
    • Just had a flatpack IKEA wardrobe put together by the dynamic Father & Son team (Victor & Carl) and over the years they have come to the rescue with their quality workmanship and all round great people to work with. https://www.handymaneastdulwich.co.uk Thank you once again.
