Like emmzzi and wimble, it's time to get a new car.  The Shaguar is like driving a big dumb sofa and just isn't quite me. Not to mention getting laughed at by a security guard for being almost too tiny to see over steering wheel (crap world that only builds executive cars for big six foot guys not weeny little squits like me).  I'll tell him where to stuff his cushion.  Never quite stopped missing the old MX-5 sexy little 2-door (named Buffy) which was totally me but which I selflessly sold when Nugget came along to get more space for child seat.

So need to find a car with a good balance of: sexy and zippy, but practical and with a boot big enough to fit a pushchair, shopping, assorted kid stuff.  If I go for a 2-dr like an Audi TT, it will be fun but require 3-D packing skills.  Think Nugget would like sitting up front on work days.  But would have to keep Precious Husband's ancient machine for family outings (unless baby or husband goes on the roof rack).  If I do sensible thing and get a 4-dr, it needs to be SPECIAL.  Would rather die than live in Ford Mondeo land.  Yes I know it's sad but cars matter (to me). 

Currently mega dangerous on the road because I'm checking out every other car that goes past.  Hard to remember to watch the road when I'm thinking "hmm is that a Volkswagen Ghia 1960" how impractical exactly would a classic car be???
