Here's three I noticed for myself. Which of these do you exhibit? Any others?
1.) Middle and ring fingers on the dash while the forefinger stands ready on the horn toggle switch while passing cars, and in other precarious spots.
2.) Sitting bolt upright as you crest a hill in order to see over the bonnet.
3.) NOT picking your nose because everybody is always looking at you!

...Which of these do you exhibit? Any others? 4. Shouting "Eh?" when someone tries to talk to you (with your ear protectors in)... 5. Inspecting and planning junctions very carefully to see if the M3W's steering lock will get me round...

Nope. 2012 model. Bump steer required two hands at all times.

Yup
3.) NOT picking your nose because everybody is always looking at you!
George Carlin had a whole routine on this one. You can't hide!
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.
