I used to have a heavily tweaked v6 Golf and now drive a 1.0 Kia Picanto. About town the Picanto is the better car to drive, it's small size makes parking so much easier and the softer suspension copes much better with pot holes / speed bumps, plus the economy is amazing, last year I only filled it up 3 times!

I'd guess if you drove it more you'd hate it.

The 1.0 Aygo/C1 engine is a fantastic little 3cylinder beaut. Really loves revving and peppy ๐Ÿ˜€

Cars nowadays are just too heavy. We should have a return to small/stripped out small cc turbo and supercharged cars as a norm ๐Ÿ˜€

And we need a car to carry 4, with weekend luggage, on longer trips, plus bikes on towbar rack occasionally.

The Yaris is great, but weekly it feels 'small'.

A lot of our driving is also not town driving - me heading up A9 or around Highlands for work, for example.

So much for the Asian car.

We bought a Spanish designed and Slovakian built car. ๐Ÿ˜†
