sasguru if you want my approval for you to trade your 1.0 Aygo,mostly driven by young girls, for a limp convertible that seem to be driven mostly by young girls, go right ahead.

They look lovely in pearlescent cherry.

Well you sound like a repetitive and dull pub bore.

No he doesn't, because he's a fuqtard!

Nothing wrong with the MX5, Jonathon Ross has one in pink, so they must be good.

Don't be ridiculous. Of course men drive these. Tough, manly types abound.

WHS. WIS. What the clever ones say, the ones who actually have some driving skill and are not posers or small-todgered. Capish Dim?

I liked this bit:

My old mate Tiff Needell, from commercial television, is perfectly capable of power-sliding a space shuttle but argues to this day that the most fun he’s ever had is in a Morris Minor, because it can be provoked into some tail-out action at about 2mph. So it goes with the Mazda. In short, you don’t need to be an astronaut with titanium hair follicles to get the best out of it.

Having had a couple of Moggies in my younger days, I understand where Tiff is coming from. Tail-out action came at slightly higher speeds for me
