The mini i want to get is £3800 and the cheapest RSP i can find for sale is £4.5k....The most expensive being 7.5k Do i be cheeky and push them or shut up and take what i'm given? Thoughts please guys!! ;D |

Not an easy decision to make Keats. I'm sure you'll make the right choice at the end of the day. Good luck. |

That's bad news Keats. Can't you use the money to buy her back and then spend a bit fixing her up?

That's bad news Keats. Can't you use the money to buy her back and then spend a bit fixing her up? I'd love too! But we don't have another car to use, nor the funds to get her done if i buy another car to use. Stuck!! So i don't think i've got a choice really, what with christmas and the crunch lol. Your right Irish they are evil |
