Boxes ticked almost  Roof up entry and exit in my garage is indeed easier than my smart Roadster! (its doors are thicker and longer) Just the partially ticked bit of driving it around to complete - I think the Karting boots were a mistake - unless I am just an out of clutch practice auto gearbox wimp!  My foot was aching a fair bit yesterday eve' plush I need to get that slow traffic starting to pull off sorted. So almost ticked - a found the floaty responses amusing out on the open road especially cornering as I actually think the smart Roadster I have is actually quite sharp steering wise and being lighter obviously requires less grunt at the wheel from yours truly, then there are the charming creaks! I would have to have mine apart and take a candle to the mating surfaces as you do with sash windows, all things that can be addressed. Let's see how the left leg holds out ....

Ah well, They don't suit everyone. But as I rarely drive auto boxes my left leg gets a fair work out between the Mog and the 90... Last auto I drove was a pal's XK8 - nice luxo tourer, if you like that sort of thing!

Just did a circuit in my neck of the woods.
Had to put the side windows on during latter part, as at speed on dual carriageway, the good boss lady was being whipped to death by her hair.
My scalp was fine!
Another 100 or so miles racked up.
Pull offs improving - dang I should have hired it for the week!
The boss loves the burbble - How can anyone not!

Just took my son out for about 40 miles Guess what? he said he agrees I have to have one  I guess the next step is inevitable - I think my coming weekends (not next though as off up to Scotland on an SR meet) will be spent scouring dealerships. I do think Dorset, Somerset and Wilts could do with more tunnels bridges and viaducts! in a Moggy you don't even get annoyed by the new slower limits

Great news. You won't regret it.
There is a car out there just waiting for you.
Happy hunting.

I've got a feeling this won't take too long and we could be in the middle of our Summer at the moment  so don't take too long. Enjoy finding your right car.
