08 Hatchback Rules

[zoidberg444]

They are an amazing little car. I couldn't be happier with mine. I'm not sure i want to drive anything else (as a daily driver) really ever.

Year before last I drove mine 7,500 miles to well above the Arctic circle and back through 7 countries in 20 days with a busted up front end and a worn out clutch stuffed with camping gear (for the cold), 3 weeks of clothes and a bit of food as well. I also had it up to 177kph in Germany on the Autobahn. It seems to cruise in excess of 80mph quite happily on the motorway.

Been on trips to Scotland, Cornwall. Put thousands of miles on it. Commuted 20,000+ miles a year.

I've had huge amounts of wood, garden waste and building rubble in mine. I helped moved house in it once. I've had 2 dozen 2x4's in it a few times. I managed to get a very bulky rolling toolbox in mine once. I also moved 2 engines in the back for a friend of mine who flips cars.
