I don't think it looks too bad. At least it's not suv ish.
It'll probably be as reliable as a volkswagen though.

It does amuse me that for years people paid extra for body colour bumpers, mirrors etc. Now they pay extra for the car to look like it's been fixed on the cheap from the local scrapyard.

I saw one yesterday in a bright green and thought it looked good, until I saw it was an Astra obviously . I’m Not a cunt.

Is this the start of LynehamHerc’s mental breakdown? What’s next? Autistic outbursts about wives, rental properties or counting cornflakes?
