Tracy - '00 corsa
any one here from England ?

hi

is there anyone here from England, United Kingdom?

i just got a new job in oxford and i've had to buy a car. my homemade electric (motorbike) bicycle is not reliable enough for the 24 mile round-trip.

i have bought a vauxhall corsa 1.0L petrol which does 50mpg, but i'll be looking to improve on that. maybe i will car-share. i definatly want instrumentation.

so are there any UK people here?

Regards, Matthew

There are, I can assure you. Where they're hiding, however, I know not.
