The car is currently used for longer journeys and commuting, however, 15mpg ish doesn't bode well for long term commuting plus some of the others using the work car park are a bit slapdash when it comes to parking, dinks, dings and scuffs are commonplace. The other car is a keeper, won't be...

The wisemen family have one small trip left this year, centre parcs again in a few weeks time. Had one trip there already this year at Easter, plus a couple of weeks in Sharm el sheikh for summer which we came back from 2 weeks ago. Also had a weekend in London for our anniversary and a weekends...
