Driving it

Well it moves, shifts stuff, stops again. Utterly un-engaging, bland, and a bumpy ride.

If you can't park this you should give up driving.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The MIL comes on if revved over 4,000 rpm, and it doesn't pull well from low revs - probably crankshaft position sensor? But it still does what I need it to, and was always intended to run on a shoestring.
What's most practical about your car?
Folding rear seats gives a reasonable load space. Has the usual power steering, central locking, ABS etc - nothing special.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Nothing really - it's 12 feet of car...
