Hello all,

Been down to the dealer this morning. Got out in an ed, lovely car, seats much more comfortable than my sport and the engine is noticeably quieter,

We did about 20 miles, i reset the MPGs before we set off, and i got 71 mpg out of it.

Sadly it was all academic, as I was way too upside down on my loan for them to close the gap with a discount.

I have a long relationship with the particular salesman I deal with, his advice was to just go do the extra miles in my current car and not worry about it, then check back in with him in 12 months and see if a deal makes more sense at that point.

It was worth the exercise to make sure I'm doing the right thing financially, but i'm sticking with my current car. Not a disappointment, its a great car!
