What are you driving?

Since the new shape has been out for a few years now it's safe to assume . Although I've never driven one they look like nice cars, as you say they are basically a Fiat 500 without the attached posers price tag

Have you seen the price of Ka's? They're every bit expensive as the 500

Current daily commuter: 2001 Hyundai Accent (stop laughing!) 89,000kms. Not a bad little POS. Very economical and surprisingly good on winter roads. Burns a bit of oil though.
The missus transports the kids in a new 2011 Toyota Sienna minivan, 500kms .

Best: Well, honestly it has to be the Sienna, but my personal favourite has always been the '94 Integra that I drove pre-kids.

Worst: 1986 (yes, '86) Pontiac 6000 LE

SEAT Leon 1.6 Emocion

Pretty standard, nothing flash (too much on insurance for me!) but really good car to drive and looks great.

[Kneeslider]

Current: Boxster 2.5 for everyday, owned for 6 years, 106k miles up. 1974 TR6 for fine day fun. Ducati 750/900ss, and Laverda RGS1000.

Best: Got to be the Boxster, but a 997 might be in the offing soon.

Worst: Hyundai Getz hire car in Australia last year, spent all the way along the Great Ocean road from Adelaide to Melbourne wishing I was driving something better. Honourable mention goes to a 1.0 Nissan Micra CVT hire car from about 2000.

Kneeslider, my brother in Australia has a Getz, it really is crap! You could lift off and it would keep on revving, absolute rubbish

I agree, I rented it years ago in Greece for the Acropolis Rally and it was rubbish in everything !

Get yourself a panda next time Pino!

Funny thing was that we were only 3 passengers (J4MIE, odykas and myself) and we almost had to get off the car and push it to go uphill

[J4MIE]

Yes Pino I remember that well, even scooters were overtaking us, but it was Greece
And yes it is the new shape Ka, registered in August 2010 and has 570 miles on the clock, just over £7k Hired one in Finland and liked it as long as you switched AC off going uphill : I'm not sure about the colour though as I've still to see it in daylight, a kind of pinky-purpley-ruby colour, it's a £600 option so wouldn't have chosen it!!
