We've known each other for ages, and I'm generally reasonably tolerated here.....
Don't get angry when I say this next bit.......
I'm still getting a Honda CRZ - almost certainly. Probably even....
....just neither of these two.
Don't shout !! It's only a small change in timing that's all !!
The thing is.... I'm getting really stressed out abou.... yes, yes, of course I know you are too. I'm sorry.
As I was saying, I'm.... we're... getting very stressed about this what with going on holiday on Monday and me starting the new job on the 13th, and trying to sort all that out and get the cases packed and also trying to squeeze in a monster train journey to Timbuctu to buy a particular car. I'm thinki..... What? OK, yes, it's a "mid-life crisis car" if you want to be petty about it.... Let me finish!!! Anyway.... what I was thinking might be a better option given the current circumstances if I just nip up the road to a local place and get a cheap runaround as a stop-gap and..... AAAAAND.... I can then keep an eye out for a more suitable CRZ that doesn't have bits I don't want and does have the bits I do and isn't in Azerbaijan. Yes..... of course... Yes... I know that's what you said in the begin... YES. FFS. Don't go on!
I'll get something like a Honda Civ...... YES.... I FUCKING KNOW!!!!! BUT IT'S TEMPORARY !!!!
OK, fuck it... I'm not getting a Civic. I'll get something Japanese with lowish mileage that I won't have trouble selling on when the right CRZ comes along.
...I WILL!!!
Why do you always bring that up ???? It's nothing like the lamina......
Oh fuck off then..... AND DON'T SLAM THE DOOR AGAIN, IT FRIGHTENS THE DOG!

Something like this is right in your budget
Lots more choice, better built, more fun to drive (without being annoyingly noisy) and reasonably cheap to run.
….actually if you are a woman then you would have just bought one from the 1 man band garage nearest to your house…not sure what this is…
It's really simple…find a car, find the money, find the time, go by the car.
Just ring up the insurance company before hand telling them the car you want to buy so all the details are in, get the reference number and soon as you get the keys, ring them up and ask them to start the insurance that minute and then drive home.
You can buy the car tax on the phone that second.
Don't stress about it.
Buy the car when you come back, it will probably still be there. If not, there will be another.
....and I left my bloody phone in it. 100 mile round trip tomorrow to pick the bloody thing up !!

Looks like I'm catching the bus to work tomorrow then....

I do all the work on the RR myself anyhow as I'm planning on keeping it now so won't have the eye watering dealership costs and it's alsready done the lion's share of it's depreciating.

I have a 16 plate Mazda 3 2.2D SE-L Nav which I've had three years, done 30k miles in it and it hasn't missed a beat. By far the best car I've ever had. Lots of toys, beautiful clean interior design, goes like stink and only £20 road tax.
My girlfriend has a Hyundai i30, it's a diesel too but smaller engine than mine so not as quick but still lovely to drive. Slightly more kit than my Mazda as it has leather seats and a reversing camera.
I prefer my car but the i30 has a slightly higher driving position if that is a consideration. I'll certainly look at Hyundai when I come to replace mine in a few years.
