Get something small, you're probably a terrible reverse parker ;)

Fiat Punto, teh ultimate shopping bag.

I am a girl and I don't have a clue what a pinto/punto/clio looks like.....unless I see it...and then of course it will depend on the colour....I like blue :)
That reminds me of what my g/f says; 'I'm actually an excellent parker but when you're in the car you put me off'Quote:

Only 200K? That's crap. My car's got over 250K and still going strong. My last one died at 290 (but then Chris was driving it and not doing maintenance on it).Quote:

trouble on engine, atleast.

Drove allsorts when I worked in a car distribution lot.
Picasso's are fantastic to drive.
Quite big and roomy, with trays on the back of the seats.
But the engine was difficult to get to.
No. It's exactly the same :blink:Quote:

Providing you're reading it in this context (before you say that it's still 2000) :rolleyes:
Jonno :cool:
pfft :blushing:
200K would be 200,000 actually
I am reading it in context, and indeed we do.Quote:

pwned.
