OK, it is going to be another banger, but, some one is coming to look at the Celsior on Sunday morning, so I'll need a replacement.
It has to be better on fuel (better than 19-23 mixed 28 on a run) so just about anything then. Doesn't have to be diesel, but has to be fairly good on fuel for urban driving. Needs to be roomy. I've gotten used to an auto, so I can't be arsed with the pita of going back to a manual. Needs to be roomy for me (no small hatches). Needs 5 full sized seats, occasionally more on the few times the family have a tribal gathering. I like toys to play with, but only in a car with decent reputation for reliability.
Cam chain over cambelt.
And here is the biggy, it needs to have a roomy boot with a flat load door so I don't have to lift things over to fill it.
A big part of my job is shifting servers back and forward to the datacentre now. The 1U ones are easy, but things like the the UPS are 4U and weigh 10stone. Bit of a ball ache to maul out of a saloon car boot.
They aren't particularly large (I can easily fit 8 1Us in the Celsior boot), but they are bulky and can be delicate.
