Use http://photobucket.com/ to upload your pics, then copy the image code and paste it straight into the post..

Regarding side steps the dealer only charge me �400 as part of the deal for the TDV8, plus lots of discount.

I have always wanted a off-roader for its commanding view, and you can't beat a full fat RR for that Thumbs Up

Regarding the Prius...To cut a long story short, I wanted to be sensible and save some money, and I was curious, it was basically a novelty purchase. TBH it was a damn good car, total reliability, good build quality, 45-50mpg, �15 road tax, and ave �100 service, but I had it for over two years, got a bit bored with it, so its time for a change, taking full advantage of credit munch cars Laughing

Obviously, having the Prius as the only car would have bored me to tears, thats why I have another for the weekend, my current toy car is Morgan Aero8 4.4 V8 Bow down

Kin you have totally redeemed yourself with the full story

I have to be honest i had a look at the prius for my wife last year but just couldnt go through with it. Also feared my wife would leave me and the kids would hate me for making them go in it despite all the plus points of mpg etc.. i just thought it was very dull.

In the end i bought the wife the then New Mini Cooper D Auto (First one at the Dealership) which covered alot of the prius plus ponts i.e. great mpg from the diesel auto (Wife will only drive an Auto) & low depreciation yet had plenty of soul & character. I actually love it and regularly use it. Although i must say the purchase price adds up once you spec them up but cost of ownership subsidises the FFRR.

Your Morgan looks the Dogs B's and the Ariel looked great fun.

10/10 for honesty re the prius disclosure on this site.

In Prius defence, if you're using it round town, its hard to beat the Prius, I know there are lots of Prius bashing going on, but most of them don't own one, so they know jacksh*t !!! It has a decent size boot and can carry 5 full size adults in comfort Smile

In fact, whilst I was at the LR dealer yesterday, for a split sec, I wanted to cancel the RR! But it was only for a split second Mr. Green

Yeah i know there good from a head point of view but the heart says there must be alternatives

I was joking with the abuse and although didnt buy one for some people they are a good buy.

My biggest issue is why do Eco cars have to be so bland? Honda also looks weird with the rear arch wheel cover!
If they added a bit of character people would buy them.

The mini has a terrible boot but i use the FFRR when i need room. The benefit of owning more than one car.

If i lived in central london and paid congetion then different story but the mini cooper diesel ticked more of my boxes etc
