>>7 No ploblemo! I once had these questions too. It totally depends on what you want to drive, but Christ, an 80-mile commute? If it was me I would move house tbh! You can't get back the hours you spent on the motorway! A couple things to take into account would be your insurance, and if the place you commute to has an LEZ. Luckily my car is exempt from LEZ. It might be worth checking if the car is liable for LEZ fines, if that applies to your city. If it's just a runaround for getting from A to B, I think there's plenty of cheap-to-buy, cheap-to-insure options. A Vauxhall Corsa or a Ford Ka or something like that? I used to have a Ford Ka and it was perfectly fine for my life at the time.
