1.1 would be just as sufficient I feel. Where did he find it?

I really dont want to be taking the rallye to uni. I need something for a shopping run and getting to and from uni from home, approx 100 miles. Something slightly comfy and to give friends lifts aswell. The rallye can then get the full works.

They'll think you're odd if you've got a 106 graduate

At least the Volvo wouldn't get nicked
