After 6 years and 80 000 miles, we've decided to change Vals Fiat 500L.
We got it at 5 years old and paid about £7k, after her Grande Punto had been in s bump.
It has been a brilliant tool, facing up to everyday usage, for shopping, school run, holidays, camping, removals and going to the tip.
It has had its issues, mainly clutch/gearbox and suspension.
The trade in value is not good, so we have given it to our daughter and her family.
We've chosen a brand new Dacia Sandero Stepway on a PCP. It perfectly fits our lifestyle and being new, we hope that it will bring certainty when planning longer trips.
It's due at Christmas.
The reviews of them are pretty good, so we are hopeful.
It's the first new car that we've had since I retired. That means I have the time to ensure that salt and crud is cleaned off regularly.

We picked up the Stepway yesterday morning and we are really pleased with it. We chose Fridge Door White, to save £650, and it does look great

Fridge door white - more space to stick magnets from Vegas and Torremelinos and your shopping list etc
