Well I got a PT Cruiser with under a quarter tank of petrol in it.

They broke something in the drivers door trying to fix the broken barrells. We've been waiting six weeks for those parts yet he reckons he'll have new parts to fix the mess they made by Saturday, and I'll have the car back then? Strange that.

Tell you what, they better bloody valet it now!

I've also had the PT Cruiser from MMC Glasgow. It was almost empty when they gave me the keys. They told me not to worry about the fuel - I stuck £5 worth in it and 50 miles+ later handed it back with only vapours in the tank. Seriously thought I was going to run out of fuel in Glasgow City centre on the way in. Not the most agile car I've ever driven but I've heard the Neon is worse...

79995 was on the spyder. I was not impressed by the condition, quite afew stonechips and the rear bumper was a different colour to the rest of the car. Plus its in grigio alloy which isnt top of many colour lists.. Def better buys to be had, if youre after one?
