    Thanks for that info matt, nice one. I don't specifically want an auto and to be honest i was against it initially, im just at that stage where i want a new car, i need to control myself, wait for the right one and not compromise! It seems that everyone including yourself recommends getting one with 60-70k on, also at that milage they will be cheaper, il keep my eyes peeled for one! Thanks again
