Oh and it’s black, black cars are cool
I have a 14 year old black car and short of having staff to detail it everyday, I would never buy another black car.
They look great for about 30 seconds after a car wash.....

yeah mine is a black car too...

mine is electric blue. the paint flaked and fell of last year, turns out it was a paint issue, and Kia paid to have the thing stripped back to bare metal and re-sprayed.

I actually decided now was a shit time for us to buy a new car (even though my job is quite safe)
my little kia rio is 7 years old, and starting to battle. I am loath to put any money in to it as it's worth absolutely nothing
also i need a camping vehicle
These guys do nice vehicle for that.

@Virgil or have had water restrictions for months. I too have a black car. It is thing of beauty when cleaned but at the moment it looks like shit inside and out.
Don’t talk abut the inside, I’ve given up keeping mine clean. When you have young kids it’s like pigs at a trough. Food, clothes, food, empty packets from food, hair ties and food. I always stare forward when I get into my car, I never look in the back seat.

What are you thinking of getting?

I have a 2013 Subaru Legacy for sale if anyone wants it - fucking mint car, I loved it for the last 4 months, and I'll take it back to Sydney in 6mths if I can't get a decent price. It currently lives in Hamilton
But it's grey (is it cooler to say silver ?) so that rules most of you out

I'm partial to silver. I'll see how much is left in the kitty after I've finished the kitchen renos in my Dunedin rental... (answer: probably bugger all).

My boy puked - everywhere - in ours last week, right as we arrived at the beach.
What. a. fucking. mess.
One week on and I'm happy that there is only a small hint of puke smell when you turn it on.
My friends Vauxhall Nova (No Va meaning no go in Spanish, not sure why it did't sell there) was known as the sick car. She was always a lazy slut and when her kid spilt milk she left it. Rancid milk smells worse than puke and we were able to verify this as the smell (some weeks later) made her other kid puke, which she also left. We caught No1 kid eating the remnants of a pork pie that he'd found on the floor at the back of the car and this finally prompted her to clean the thing out.
You could not sit in the car with the windows shut even then.

The next generation Isuzu D-Max comes out Monday and I am very keen. Sick looking truck, all the bells and whistles, heaps of grunt
