Title: no vacation this summer
Post by: cem_devecioglu on 22 July 2008, 09:25:20

As a consequence of mad fuel prices and high installation costs of LPG kits over here (1700-1800 £-including licensing for 6 pot) wife and I decided to buy a clit which is simpler to use for daily purposes and cheaper to maintain..(which means miggy will rest a bit until I balance my budget :-/)

So we end up with a year 2000 clit sport 1.6 manual..Price 5000 £ (approx)..Meaning a depleted bank account :'(

Hoping 1/3 drop in fuel cost ..Also I plan to install LPG for it when budget is ready..

Now bye bye sea..and summer vacation :'(

You & me too! I like the Chrysler 300C & there doen't seem any point in doing things by halves! Just what does a 6.1 litre car do to the gallon?  ::)  ::)  :y  :y
