The wife has been running around in a courtesy Vauxhall Meriva for a few weeks. She loves it, its small but has plenty of interior space, electric everything, air con, twin leccy sun roofs, and is resonably economical.

I hate the fucking thing, with its weedy 1.6 litre 4 cylinder engine and nasty cheap feeling knobs and switches. Gutless and devoid of any charm whatsoever. Horrible.

1.6 is big enough. I have a 1.1 and it's fine, and probably a lot cheaper.

It's the driver...not the car.

But at least it'll make the scooby seem like a rocketship at the weekends. :)

Year? Engine spec? Toys? They're going to be more expensive to keep than some if you maintain the servicing, but they look great, even if the indicators are superfluous. :D

It's a lovely little Hyundai Getz. It has no problem with me driving it.

Next I shall probably buy my brothers motorbike off him.

Now there's two words you don't often read in the same sentence.
