Chance of stone chips and cap park dents: nil. Chance of spiders in wing mirrors: high.

with that amount of turf its going to cost the environment more due to the drag I wonder what it says on the v5 under colour? Otherwise i quite like it, you wont need to ever clean it and i guess it wont rust

They sell/hire indoor plants to offices. Car seems reasonable to me, if it was me driving it I'd be spending my whole day trying to clip pedestrians so I could give them carpet burns... I like giving carpet burns

They don't do that anymore as no-one pays the fines.

Nowadays Matt's mate just lets down your tyres while he keeps watch.
