Not one of those modern types that looks like a woodlouse.
Hardly ever seem to drive it though.

Maybe later this weekend, it's filthy right now, and I've just had a set of Eagle F1's fitted, so the wheels have that slimey stuff on them. I'll clean it tomorrow and take some new pics, it's been a while since I have anyway...

its a suzuki alto 1.1 and road tax is only £40 a year. it also has alloy wheels lol. but for £5400 brand new on the road not bad. its 3 now and has done 57000 miles and no problems (touching wood now) (not that sort of wood ) before that I had a mini cooper (hated it) rover 800 (loved driving it but not parking) mazda 121 (loved it) peugeot 106 diesel (absolute tank and I could not go round mini roundabouts as there was no power steering) and now my suzuki (fantastic beast) even been done for speeding (it was down hill with the wind behind me)

Same here - awesome car - sub 6 seconds to 60, max speed around 150mph - only around 23 to the gallon though

Mrs Matt has a convertible for sunny days
