Why didn't the Mrs want an estate? That's as big as an estate I'm length innit. More girth though I reckon.hopkinb said:

I wanted a fast premium hatchback, totally impractical, given 2 large children, camping holidays and a dog. She definitely did not want an estate. This is fast, big, and for most of our day to day driving will be on pure battery power, there's no congestion charge so I can hoon round central London, and my parking permit is peanuts as opposed to £300 for a diesel.
This is so big you don't need to care about lack of space, like Stevo says, you just drive over anything in your way.
We had only one incident with the last car, when Mrs H³ reversed into a tree. Teeny paint scratch.0 -

So long as you can put your bikes inside that's the main thing, innit.

Its a part for the dyson. Although it could be used a love toy if youre up for it. Worse than an old jag...MattFalle said:

Evening folks,
Busy day of wfw, didn't want to wobble in given the amount of ice around so having woken relatively early I decided to walk in. Stupid idea given a it's over 5 miles each way. Very nice in the park this morning at least. My feet hurt now.
Someone in a big nee car should have collected me so I could stay 2 metres away to aid antisocial distancing.
Well done on the bubbly research SG, fine work you're doing there.

Back in the late 80s I had a 4.2 XJ6. Beautiful looking car. We then acquired a twin axle caravan which I attached. I could swear that I could see the fuel gauge moving going down the M5.
It had 2 fuel tanks but could have done with 4.0 -

I feel your pain. Been applying for jobs also. My contract runs out end of June and trying to get other things in-line in case it's not extended or I don't go permanent.MattFalle said:Just spent 2 1/2 hours on online application form for new job.

It's bigger than most estates. That said I don't let Mrs. 666 drive my estate, I'd like to keep it the same length as it is now. She has a 1l Polo, just to be safeelbowloh said:

Physio sorted out my back after work, so I immediately went for a run in the snow/ice to mess it up again.

Its Stropteen's car and the Mrs gets exclusive rights while junior is away at uni. I'd need a mortgage for the insurance on a Passat for Stropteen.ballysmate said:
