    i thought 13 years of labour might have had more to with you being able to finally come out of the closet.

    nice seats though!

    isnt the aygo the same as the pug 107 and c1 citroen?

    isnt the fiat 500 basically a panda?

    Yes Sparks, The ayego is a complete disgrace! Never driven anything as turd in all my motoring history!!

    Apparently yes the 500 uses the latest panda chassis.

    Haha.

    I bought a mk1 Renault 5 TL. Its Beige, so I look a bit of a Grandad.
    But it will do 43mpg flat-out everywhere. I reckon 50mpg if I drove it like a Grandad.
