Having had 4 previous model Tollys (3 x V5s and 1 x 150hp diesel), I've bitten the bullet and moved on.
I traded in my last V5 to my friendly local dealer who had a boatload of ex-SEAT management cars, so a Tdi Sport in metallic blue with 5000 miles is now mine for an extremely reasonable balance-to-pay.
I have to say that I'm most impressed - great build quality, a well styled inside and outside, as many gizmos as you could reasonably want, a strong engine, excellent seats, and a piece of cake to get in and out of (at 56 I notice these things). It's a big car with a big hatchback, and I'm still not sure where all four corners are. I'm expecting an average 50mpg (mostly A1 and M-ways). I used to average 34 from the V5, so the saving will be appreciated (plus the saving on insurance and car-tax).
If there are still any doubters out there (I was one of them), go take a look.
