Love And Hate!?

Ok, so i was thinking about my motor (as always) and thought i'd post a thread of the thing we most like and the thing we most hate about our car. This is me getting to know you good folk

I'll go first...

Like: The thing i like the most about my car is it's nationality. As a firm patriot i love that it's English made. Hmmm, i might get a decal saying 'made in England'.

Hate: Ok, the thing i hate the most about my baby is that she has no cup holder!! Ok ok easy fix i know, but i'm too lazy to go get one and to forgetful to pick one up when i'm out and about ^.^ but many a time i've bought a coffee whilst in the car and realise i have no where to put it, it usually ends up between my legs lol.




Anyway, that's my love and hate for today, what's yours?

How much money would you spend for a 40 mile trip? saying the petrol price was at 1.15 PL. (an estimation would be good, not to the exact penny)

Love - its a yellow, derv ZS with full kit.

Hate - the mk2 alloys, I cant park it, drive it, without the dreaded scruuunch from one of the rims. No protection from the tyres but I can live with the flattened rim edge. Maybe its just my c*ap driving but even outside the house I can scrape the kerb. Doh!!!!!

40 miles = about ?5.00

Yup that's what i'd guess mine at too. Cheaper fuel is always a plus but i think that's good going considering the prices at the moment.
