Well, actually, you can’t get much further from a new car!!
This has enough space to carry stuff when we move house, and means that we can actually go somewhere with folks when they are over without having to either take the train, or squeeze into the unfeasibly small back seat of the 207cc.
Cars don’t really die in Australia, at least not from old age the way they do in the UK. No salt on the roads, less moisture and no nasty cold starts mean that trucks like this one (1989) just keep running and running.
Ours has done over 290000 km and all still works (even the air con works).
plenty of space in the back too:
Spot the pole for holding up the rear hatch!!
