When we were looking, there were no xAs that hadn't been ridden hard and put away wet. It seemed like a nice little car but there weren't any specimens available that weren't beat to shit. Not so with the xD - lots of hard plastic in the wrong places. I was physically incapable of getting into the passenger seat without banging my knees on a dashboard that had no excuse to protrude as far as it did.

We were looking for a used Fit but because Honda had brought them to the market so late, and discontinued them 9 months later, the delta between a used 08 and a new 09 was less than a thousand dollars. New it was.

What's your scope? Back up in WA I've got a 10" Coulter f/4.5 Dobsonian and it will fit in a... Fit no problem. Of course, I can easily see the problems an equatorial mount would engender.
