eclectic should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hi, Learner,

I gave up on the Mini, nice though it is, the heavy clutch is a real turn off, not only unpleasant to drive, but possibly a warning that huge bills were on the horizon.

I ended up buying a 2001 Golf V5, heated leather seats, working aircon, in near perfect cosmetic order. With only 32,500 miles, (half the mileage of the Mini) and two owners.

It was found on Gumtree, at £1,750 so I will tolerate the fact that it is an automatic.........
