After much deliberation, and many phone calls and hours on the net, I decided that buying a new car was better and cheaper than fixing the Neon. So off we went this morning to look at a Ford Focus Ghia, and I bought it.
Top of the range, new tyres, wheels & exhaust, engine bay is really tidy looked at the spark plug leads looked nice & clean the oil looked ok, no crap in the engine bay at all apart from usual dust.
Took her for a test drive the gears are nice and smooth and the acceleration was great, put a smile on my face, took some getting used to a manual after driving an auto but no probs.
There is slight chip in the windscreen but not awful or in the line of sight, the paint is chipped ever so slightly on the bonnet but nothing a good t cut wouldn't cover. So I'm a happy girl and pleased with my choice. Photo's will follow once the camera has charged.
