    advice needed

    i'm going to scotland next year and I wondering what's the best car to rent.


    and Matra, I got something for you too, what's the gas milage on Matra's and Alpines, cause I woundn't mind renting one, espically, the t180 or whatever you call it cause I like it's sleek profile.

    1) station wagon with lots of space "ford?"
    2) something sporty "BMW?" to get there if in a rush dont go to fast think!
    3) something fun "BMW?" think!
    4) most definatly coumfterble and a cusioney ride "BMW 745i"
    : CUP holder CUP holders!!!!
    : space for luggage

    There is 3 people on a boat with loads of children running around it, the 3 people are: 1. Bob geldof, 2. Ozzy Osbourne, and 3. Micheal jackson, they're sailing out for the G8 live aid, they've hit a rock and they're sinking, bob says: "save the children!" ozzy says: "Fuc the children!"

    Micheal says "have we got time?"

    also, I created a scheme to get me behind the wheel permently of a bimmer, buy it used and trade in the lemon when doing so, but I still have to price.

    If UKCars could answer he would say something like: one that has a baby seat in the back! Just kidding, don't get angry with me!

    Honda CR-V or equivalent. Whenever I can on vacation, I like to get something tall with big windows. Great for touristing.

    erm - nah

    OK, pretty much anything you need/want.
    From Smart to Trucks.
    Depends on what you want to do, where you want to go, who is with you and how much fun you want. Pretty much the same choices aas everywhere else in the world -- and all the same companies too

    The Bagheera gets about 25-30 mpg and the A610 gets anywhere from 20 to 30 mpg dependant on how driven. I've had one on track session get a terrible 15mpg but I spent most of that pushing REAL hard.

    You won't find anyone renting out any Matra or Alpines as they're not 'current'.
