What small car should I get (Spike, shut your predictable cake hole).

1) 1007?
2) Some sort of Fiat?
3) Maybe a Foxy VW.

Let me know what small cars you have driven and what you thought of them.

We bought a Toyota Aygo, this helped me get the WR1 in the first place, nearly 60 to the gallon, air con, and it corners better the the scoob. Go and try one Bro. :thumb: :thumb:

Thanks mate.

Is that the same as the Peugoet 107?

If so, did you compare and contrast both cars? What made you take the Aygo over the 107?

had a mini s, before getting my 1st subaru, lovely car, could not find a single fault in it, great road holding, good fuel economy, inside was nice and enough room for us two as well :lol:

We looked at the C1 and the 107 but we just liked the look of the Aygo, one of the other two don't have air con [can't remember which one], and Toyota make all three anyway, there are only slight differences with the body work and the 107 has a glove box lid. You are quite welcome to have a ride if you are up our way anytime.

You gotta see the funny side to your post.

One min you are driving around in a EVO FQ400 and the next mo you are selling Clio's.

Thanks for the info Pudsey. It will all go into the cooking pot.

Why would you want a small car ? Little money can buy you a nice second hander.

1007 is very heavy.

Nice one, Bro: "what toys did you get with the Clio ?"

I thought you were after a cheap car ?

Or you just want a small car for parking ?
