a mate had an m coupe and backed it over a roundabout at 80+ mph soing all sorts of grief to the suspension, alloys and body panels. damn quick car, looks better then bangles efforts tho'

my current car is very close to my ideal economical, roomy enough for kids / mates / kit / other crap and pretty nippy- if i could get a diesel mpv which did 0-60 in under 7 seconds 50+ mpg and be a convertible then it'd be perfect but somehow convertible / mpv seem to be mutually exclusive .
