I'm guessing you don't do that much driving? Thousands, rather than tens of thousands, of miles a year?
I say there are plenty enough good second-hand cars around these days, so you can afford to go with one that "feels right" rather than taking the risk of buying one you think you'll become comfortable with over the course of weeks or days. And, as you note, there's at least a risk that ones you don't like at first you'll continue to dislike.
The way around the problem is to get lots of experience of driving a wide variety of vehicles. Personally, my interest in driving and natural curiosity leads me to investigate any vehicle I drive fairly thoroughly — even to the extent of taking a long wheelbase Citroën van down a twisty-turny road rather than the dual carriageway, just because I wanted to know how it cornered. That sounds like too much hassle for you? |
