Even better with the Mondeo Ford brand snobbery means they devalue more than they should. Conversely I get the impression that there is an inverted brand snobbery with Skodas that adds to their resale value.

It drove really well and I think they look great and the styling has continued to improve subsequently. I would be happy to own one again though I am even happier to have the BMW.

you need a Mitsubishi Delicia; fully bullbarred, kitted out and painted up as a pseudo mountain rescue ambulance - then you can park on grass verges and people's front gardens on the school run
Peewee has a Toyota and although it's a bit dull, it's well spec'd and a decent size.
