eBay tat volume 3.

I've been missing having a big wafty barge since the Jag went...these have been winking at me in a slightly disturbing manner for a long time and I might have to get one this year.  Ultima spec preferably, estate even better.  Shame some of the parts are pricer and harder to find than some 'premium' rivals.

I'm keeping an eye on these, will buy one when they're comfortably sub 2 grand (don't forget the battery lease though :()

Heard somewhere that Renault are going to wave the leasing costs on the batteries of twizzys over four years. Have a google and see what comes up.

But I would like a go in one of these.

 

Dont fancy doing my commute down the A50 in one though on a foggy icy morning.

I had a go in that actual one on a Renault driving day I managed to blag myself onto when it was new.

I have never driven anything that attracted so much attention (even Police vehicles or when I've driven stood up)  Japanese tourists going into the Albert Dock started taking photographs and laughing more than normal.

 

It was great fun, but it sadly lacked little things like doors, heater, radio or suspension. At 40MPH it felt like the antarctic despite it being late June and having the Renault Guide sat right behind me legs akimbo.

 

I still want one.

 

(The Twizy not an akimbo guide - he was a nice enough bloke tho)

It is the nicest car I have owned (and I once owned an Aston Martin briefly.)

Join the club! Hired one last year and loved it. That said Mrs not quite so keen as the ride is Audi style rock hard.

Will punt on a nice one with doors around the 2.5/3.0 'ish area soon...

To be honest with that megane you'd better spending 2 grand and buying one that lets you turn the headlamps on
