    its a kia soul http://www.kia.co.uk/microsites/soul/ its certainly different, which usually means its not normal and boring and therefore cool, but it is also korean

    I am inbetween at the moment, the fact you can get 2 bikes in the back dead easily helps though - you dont hear clarkson asking that

    If it was made by Alfa it'd be cool (and quirky), unfortunately it's a Kia and they will never be cool, no matter how hard they try!

    Definitely uncool, and so low on the wall that Hammond would have to stoop to get his hands on it!

    If you have to ask if you're cool...

    Just no man.
    "I hold it true, what'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost;
    Than never to have loved at all."

    surely using the words 'top gear' and 'cool' in the same sentence is an oxymoron?

    Who are clearly more informed than your good self, otherwise you'd be doing their jobs.....
    Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
    Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved

    Stupid cars. I had to deliver one to a customer years ago (before mobiles), got to his house and parked up. Struggled for an age, drove the car all the way back to work. What the feck are you doing here? Its fecked, the keys stuck I cant get it out. Put it in reverse. I said I cant get the key out not I cant drive backwards. You have to put it in reverse to get the key out. Do I look stupid (the Motor Trade is full of wind ups, go to the parts dept and ask for a long weight, which of course turns into a long wait, ha ha ha). Then drove all the way back to his house and put the car in reverse to get the key out.

    Dont have a pic of my Alfa, but she would be in the fridge, one with a glass door so folk can look at her 8)

    Aye, about 15secs after you had put the accelerator pedal on the floor. Just a hint of turbo lag :shock:
