Oh hang on I pay £1700 a year in VED already, I might get that over £2000 if I can persuade SWMBO that a ultra low mileage Freelander TD4 automatic should join the stable.

Anyway, I can understand the ZT being expensive to tax, but the TF

Lol, I did think the same thing at first Bri, but you do soon come accustom to its smooth ride. Quite surprisingly the wide stance these mini SUV's have does feel quite nice, the higher than normal ride height and the smoothness is incredibly addictive.

Its what Tracey wanted, and who am I to argue. If I had my way I would have bought a Range Rover, but that may still happen one day, wink wink. What amazes me though, is the 0.9Tce 3 pot engine actually drives like a 2.0ltr once you use the Turbo, if I switch to ECO mode the money saving just keeps adding up.

oh dam, my mistake the 1.8 TF is £300, £315 if paying in instalments, that's still just £26 cheaper than a 190ZT, shocking really.
