He sees something practical, diesel, boring. I see something small, funky, cheerful, cool. all for around the 3K mark(!)
any ideas?

who is going to use the car more?
What kind of journeys is it mostly going to be used for (short around-town, long haul motorway etc)?
how many kids and of what ages are you transporting?

It would be me driving car to work and back - 20 miles round trip every day - also to pick up DDs from school some days.
I think if it's going to be for me then i should be able to choose - therefore cool, funky and good colour comes above practicality - dontch think?
