My wife has a clio which I have to drive if she steals the BM in the morning!!!
It sort of reminds me of the old Harry Enfield sketch with the guys talking about what cars they have and there wives always had a micra or something!!! (Reasonable.......wife + good car equals death trap!!!!)

My mrs has a merc which I do drive, although a nice car it has the most amusing gearbox, you plant your foot to the floor and it just seems to rev really high (its a auto box) before doing a lot else!

Other car in family is the wifes Golf TDi, I also own a Nissan Sunny ZX (N13) which has a 1.8 Twin Cam 16V engine, hopefully though will be ripping the engine out, then replacing with a 200sx DET lump that will jump it from 125bhp upto about 200 once installed and setup.
Cheers

IMO still the ultimate Q Car with massive potential for mods.
Embarassed an e46 M3 Vert from the lights a couple of weeks ago, and were talking about a sixteen year old car here. [bang
