My Car: '02 Renault Laguna 2, 1.8 petrol.
Pros: Comfy, comfy, oh God is it comfortable. Seats may be ten years old but that just means they're properly broken in. Lot's of spec inside. Lots of safety. Looks good (in my opinion). It's one of the first cars to get 5-stars for safety. It handles alright. And did I mention it's comfortable and quiet. Can get a surprising shift on too if you stomp it. 55k miles on it. Got it for the price of a wheel balancing...
Cons: Guzzles fuel. It's an automatic which is a bit weird after doing 6 months in a manual to get my license. It feels like when I push the throttle, the engine's spinning up a big tank of goop, which then in turn spins up the gearbox and drivetrain... you can really tell there's no direct connection. it's pretty distracting. Apparently, the reliability is supposed to be shit too, but aside from the usual niggles with a decade-old car this one's grand.
Replacement:
Maybe a second hand Rx-8. I like quirky things like that.
