Oddly enough, I was watching the Top Gear episode earlier where they drove from Basel to Blackpool on one tank of petrol to switch on the lights, with hamster driving that car...well...not yours obviously  ;D

From what they showed on the show, its a spiffingly good car. Something like 74mpg...but...the tank is small...only 10 gallons I think.

Just don't drive any further than Switzerland on one tank of petrol  :D

Yeh, don't park it in an area where Clarkson or May might be... It might not be found in one piece when you get back to it  :-[

Looks nice though. Blueish-silvermotion

Great looking motor Mic. Is this your first car, or have you been crashing around in something else since you passed your test?

Great car though, good MPG, reliable, easy to park, nippy enough & it looks good aswell.

Top stuff.

LOL, thanks Charlie, I'll take the award now please - presentable in beer.

Don't even know why I mentioned MPG to be honest, it's something I gave up worrying about ages ago.

It's not strictly speaking mine, but for the family....(getting my own car would be way too expensive and pointless at the moment), but it is the car I'll be learning on and driving once I've passed my test :P

MPG wise it's very good....supposed to get about 80 on the motorway....which also means you don't pay any road tax :D

I was a little disappointed with the lack of colour options....having the choice of Silver, blueish silver, black and white...:P....this is blueish silver :P

.mic

PS...

You're too close!?! I'm only over the bridge!!  :o ;D


I'd rather live in Bristol than in the Dark ages.....:P
