Check out my new wheels

finally bit the bullet, gave in to SWMBO and bought an MPV

Went out last week and looked at 4 Alhambras, 1 Galaxy and an 807 ranging from £1995 to £4500. Most were battered to pieces, the 807 was actually quite good (until I actually drove it).

Finally settled on this 2001 Alhambra SE, Seat demo car + 1 owner, full SH, 105k miles, clean and tidy, drove well and comes serviced with new MoT and 6 months tax for £4000.

I swore I 'd never do it, but now I'm strangely looking forward to seeing just how much crap we can tote around with us Rescued attachment Y818 GKK-4.jpg

It's terrible to see someone give up on life

When are you having a caravan ?

my mate bought one to use as a van.......for £350

mechanicals are great....but the inside looks like there was a paint ball attack with permanent paint.

Cheers chaps - you've made me feel loads better about it

Forgot to mention before, it's also got the "Captain" front seats which swivel 180 degrees so you can play poker with the first row

Best bit mind will be the ability to put each of the 3 kids in seats where they can't reach each other

Our Synergie has the swivelling front seats too.

Very cool for using in four seat mode with the middle row out.
I'm a fan.
Anyone who doesn't get it can pheque off.
