Best car I ever had was a Ford Explorer, closely followed by a Jeep Grand Cherokee. At the moment I drive a Chrysler Pacifica with 156,000 miles on it and it still drives great. Company keep offering to replace it but I am holding off for the time being.

It's a 3 yo Honda I'm looking at25K brand new
What model? 25K pounds = 51K can $.
That would put you in the luxury car category over here.
I test drove a Honda HRV (a new line, similar to a CRV but without AWD) the other day. Cost ca. $26K Can$ or $13K pounds.
Cars must be very expensive in UK.

Maddix was quoting the brand new price of 25k.

Jesus, that's $42,000, I could get a BMW or Audi for that price!! I forgot how expensive cars were in England.

Got my all singing and dancing, top of the range Honda Civic
It even tells me if I'm going to think about farting in the next 20 minutes or so 
Finally paid 8K for it 
And it's the correct shade of blue (metallic though)
Just need the 0 WLS number plate now Anyone up for a Top Gear style motoring thread
as it seems quite a few of us like our cars And Thurny, a C-Max is ideal for a 21 YO
Think of the room in the back, the lasses will be gagging for a bit of dogging

I had a Megane and the power steering failed. £1500 to fix it!! Think the car was worth about £2500 and I've never trusted French cars since then!
Best car I've ever had was a BMW 325d. Superb car, only sold it because it doesn't fit three kids and all their equipment in comfortably!!!
I get company lease now so get to change if for a new one every two years. Hate having to spend money when cars go wrong so leasing is best option for me!!
Power steering is expensive. Had a problem on a Vauxhall Carlton & it cost £2k to fix.
The best two cars I have had were a Citroen & a Peugeot.
