Me. Got the work van which can only be used for work, the Peugeot 406 estate that I share with my dad to use for any other jobs I have. Then my missus has got a SportKa that we use to go to places like Merry Hill in instead of mine. If your constantly moving your tools around then I'd reccommend you get a cheap estate. Our Pug was only £670! It goes alright too cause it's a 2.0l petrol! Only 33mpg if we're lucky though which is a down side.
It's a nice little car, does over 40 t'ut gallon, and is our main form of getting around and shopping

Got the CLIO and also have a Citroen C2 LX for mon-fri, only recently stopped using the 197 through the week but it makes me look forward to the weekend even more!
It can get a bit :swear: being overtaken all of the time and I cant help notice that the Clio gets a lot more respect than other cars; I never have to wait to pull out of a junction and never get carved up whereas in the C2 its pretty constant lol!

Yeah as per the other thread a few weeks ago - I would do anything possible not to park mine in a shopping centre car park, the interesting thing is ordinary cars don't get dings... its only the nice ones...
Yeah it really winds me up does that! I must admit I have been guilty of flashing them in the past, thinking that I was in the Clio when I wasn't lol! ;/
I have seen a GW in Birmingham several times with Cliosport forum stickers in it. I would flash my lights or put my hand up, but I'm always in the Transit! Lol! Have been flashing other 197s more recently. Saw a Albi 197 near Cheddar in Somerset last Monday and flashed my lights, but nothing back. Has anyone else noticed a lot of old people driving 197s btw? I think they must go in the dealers and say
'I want a small car that's top of the range. I need something with a decent sized engine for when I go on the motorway!'
I bet the salesman is rubbing his hands together as he sells them a 197 FF with every option, including cup pack and Recaros! Lol!
Then the old dears complain to every man, woman, child and beast that their back problem is getting worse! And they still don't drive any quicker than 15 mph! Lol!
