    Yeah I dont like the smaller "prestige" (if that's the word) cars either

    If you want a small car buy a mini or a Suzuki swift or whatever not a BMW 1 or Audi a2

    Yeah mate but looks "bigger" if you know what I mean

    Although they gave us a gla when ours was being serviced and it was a nice looking car.

    Think outs is a 1.6 engine and all which is really strong compared to days gone by and economical too

    First 5-door in quite a while as well but with a grandchild on the way gotta start acting my age.

    I test drove a basic package but wasn't that impressed. Problem is you keep comparing it with what you've got and you gotta get past that.

    So got one with the extras. See how we get along with it.

    Tbf before this I had to get some vehicles suitable for my lad and his wheelchair etc so have had the "family" ones. So a zafira (****e), a tour an (decent) a Renault traffic (sports model.so decent)

    Previous to that I was all about 5 series etc but had a VW transporter that I loved once

    This particular merc suits my lad too as he walks a but and can get in and out himself as its sooooo low. Havoc on my knees like

    My old banger sounds perfect for you. (if it was a lot never),. It's a Honda Stream, they never really took of in the UK, but the yanks loved them..

    It's actually got 7 seats although down as 5. But the beauty is the engine. The 2L Honda sports engine..Looks a heap, but possibly one of the best engines ever made,Ilove ****ing about with other cars..It looks a heap, but that engine man..

    Nearly bought one 10/11 years ago. I'm not averse to imports etc. We ended up buying the toyoot estima or previa as its known in UK. The imports have the 2.2 TD engines whereas the UK models only used to come in a 2.4 petrol


    Had one of these too, in this colour but newer, absolute luxury.

    I've had loads of cars, but **** this ugly tank i have now is so different.. It looks a heap, but that Honda sports engine just loves being revved to ****.

    I want a go in a S2000 now. It'sthe same engine, just much higher tuned, and a lot smaller.
