When it was time to buy a new car in the Fowler household, the Vauxhall Grandland wouldn’t have been at the top of our list. We’d decided to buy an EV, and my wife had her sights set on the new Renault Scenic – although I was trying to persuade her that the Renault 5 would be more up her street.
But as with any big purchase, saving cash is always high on the agenda. And it’s amazing how attractive things can look when they’re cheap – finding a new car for less than the cost of a couple of coffees a day was too good a deal to ignore.
