Summary

That I'm sensitive and modest about myself, despite the fact that I don't need to be

Dad loves it! Mum loves it! They won't love it when they get it back though (in my defence, I did not abuse the car in any way. It just got old)

No, far too slow for the motorway and very noisy. Gives you a migraine on longer trips

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Smooth ride, that becomes firm with speed and rough roads. Very easy to weave in and out of traffic. When you first drive the car, its frightening, as its so nippy from a start position. I have to say it certainly doesn't drive like the Austin Metro I used to have(masocists will get enjoyment here).
What's it like to park?
I haven't crashed it into anything yet, so I'd have to say its insanely easy
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing major, until recently, which is why I'm parting company with it. Its just not worth repairing.
What's most practical about your car?
It was so cheap to run
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Electric Windows. You don't have to be an executive to have em!
