Seems my MG is going to be my daily driver for a while. I got rear ended on the way home from work today. Shoved me into the car in front of me. It's not good. I seem fine. Sore. A Chevy Blazer hit m

Get a Toyota Prius. It provides great gas mileage, lowest emissions and pretty darned good performance. We have an '04. It's our daily driver and our road car. You should take a look at it. Cheers,

Might I suggest perhaps an MG? They do rather well in most conditions, are a rather fun car to drive. You could probably find a car in reasonable condition for less than $10K, which is rather a bit l

I'll second that. Not exactly an exciting car but hard to beat gas mileage and almost no emissions. I'm very happy with my '04 Prius. You might be able to find some used ones now that they have been

Living in Minnesota, and being 40, I'm not going to drive a hobby car in the winter. 2 mornings this past week I got up and didn't feel like taking the MG to work. Something I do about 3 times a week

Paul, if you go to www.cartalk.com, they have an auto advisor in their "Actual Car Information" section that will suggest some possibilities after asking a number of questions about your preferences.

Yeah, I like Mazdas. Had a 626 and a Navajo. And now have a 6 wagon. The 3 looks great. We're not going into the new car market though.

I was actually referring to the Mini. When I've sat in one, the rear of the driver seat MUST touch the rear seat. 42 is really good.

The new small Mazda wagon (Mazda3?) is great looking, supposed to be fun to drive, and my sister takes hers skiiing and backpacking all the time. Oregon isn't Minnesota, but it could be worth a look.
