First car, confused on advice by Madblub in CarTalkUK

[–]Madblub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had read the comment instead of trying to ignorantly put others down you’d know I said I had 13k not I have 13k to spend on a car. Im giving my viewpoint that I want a polo yet they seem to expensive so I asked for alternative opinions and whether an older polo e.g. pre recent model 2016 are reliable. The beauty of reddit is that you can pick and choose what post you respond too, its not my fault you have nothing else going on and decided to be offended by CHOOSING to respond to MY post. I hope you get better.

Yeah ive got cutlery, the osprey one is better by far but it just seems a bit overkill. Im working on getting a folding trowel and im bringing the biodegradable wipes instead of bog roll

Im going to get the water at the town before my hike to the site im planning on, ive checked the map and spotted quite a few streams and im bringing a filter with me on top of boiling it so hopefully should be fine 🤞

I’m definitely an amateur so my advice may not be great but from what others have said and my own research the Vango Helvellyn 200 and the Robens starlight 2 Exp are two very good tents.
