D5. TBH apart from the ERADs shitting the bed on the T8 (and the £10k uplift in purchase cost, YEY! ECO! TAX!) I'd consider one as our next vehicle in 4 years time / whenever ours hit's 99999 miles.
And yes, I don't have enough time to cycle these days. Let alone spent hours restoring the wagon. I think I'll get it fixed and then look to maintain. He'll be here in 10 mins, wish me luck!
UPDATE: £275; full valet and machine polish. 2 days under current light conditions - moving to 1.5 in a month or 2.
I've got a Cornwall dash in feb so I'll cue it up for after that I think. Just hope it's not sunny between now and then so I can't be judged!

That's not bad at all actually. if you can live with it then absolutely best to leave it for a couple of months, we're in peak shitty weather/grimey roads at the moment so just take it down a muddy lane and get it covered in crap, you'll look adventurous and nobody will be able to tell the state of the paint!

T8? To come back on point, pay someone with a good rep to fix it, even if you think it's a bit steep. Value your time and once it's fixed you know not to make the same mistake again and stay on top of keeping it in good nick.
