Economy
Value
Appeared to be a good buy second hand but when you want to trade it in, they will make you cry. I was considering buying a second hand Lexus but there was no price in Glass's guide so he offered 6,500 for a 2 year old with low miles. I still have the car.
Costs
Tyres are 200 quid each.
