Mine's just an std derv, but recently I found out what she meant when I had a ride on a backseat of an Evo X. Felt dizzy, no question about it. But, when behind the wheel physics are completely different and let you enjoy.

My Mrs mostly drives our 2011 2.0 diesel Astra. In comparison she thinks both my MGs are old heaps of sh1t.

She has been moaning at me to get rid of it for years but i refuse, in 7 years ifs only broke down once and it was a coil that went. £25 and it was fixed, and believe it or not it's had 4 Mot's and never had so much as 1 advisors. its been unbelievably reliable, i just love it
Cant understand why she hates it so much, just wondered what all the other wifes/partners thought ?

Never mind trading the zs .trade her in. my wife actively encourages me to spend money on my 180.

Kids love it. Wife will drive it if she has to. She likes the power but not having to avoid speed bumps.

OMG, you guys are soooo unlucky! My wife (Kat2512) absolutely adored our mk2 110 and loves the mk2 180 even more if possible! She loves the handling, the noise (decat and full powerflow) and the power. She also loves the look and wants one that is 'just hers'! Preferably in yellow 
Loves the track car too, shame she only had one run in it this year.
Anyway, my wife is truly awesome!!

my missus hates my zed, "you can feel every bump in the road" and "its tooo loud" are the usual things i get, so i point out she can jump back into her "semi auto" astra that forgets what gear its in and stalls constantly
