They will all say the Mondeo of course!

wrong.... the Mondeo will depreciate horrifically! looses like £10k in its first year.

Vipers are properly cheap to look after as they are proper understressed old tractors really and dont break really. Tyres are main cost if you like rolling burnouts

All these idiots running around buying brand new Polo blue motions because they do 60mpg and so they think they are saving money are sooooo thick!

Get a Viper! save money! wont depreciate at all! more fun to pop to Tescos in as well
