Thank you for your offer of assistance and when I have the funds to 
proceed I will definatly be asking for help.

I was thinking of buying a new car to replace my Ford Ka, but then 
thought that for the money I would spend on a new car, I could keep 
the Ka and get the D. I would love to have it as a daily driver (I 
would only need to drive it at the weekends as I can walk to my 
workplace) and the wife likes the idea of having one too (though she 
wants a corvette).
