Back on topic. Small and "luxury" ish.

Cygnet was based on an iQ, not an Aygo. I also have an iQ and it feels like a full sized car inside, seats are a bit skimpy though. It does share a luxury Lexus GS component as well. The air vent toggle! I swapped my very large and comfy 2009 GS450h for a 2018 Jazz Sport. No leather, not as plush but the seats seem as comfy as the Lexus over a 400 mile drive. MPG pretty much halved.

I love that interior!

Booked a place in south of Spain for a month April/May next year. Driving from Calais, ten nights down, seven nights back. Including four nights in Portugal. Will be driving the Honda unless.... 1. I can persuade the wife that we need an SC430 2. I can find a good SC430

So....it is a bargain?

This reg would make the car appear older than actually is. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202308291322617?sort=relevance&make=Lexus&maximum-mileage=50000&minimum-mileage=40000&page=3&postcode=NG15GA&price-from=25000&price-to=30000&year-from=2016&year-to=2018&advertising-location=at_cars&fromsra Ownership and history Info given by the seller The below information (except History Check) has been provided by the seller.

Covid extension? So vehicle would not need to be actually inspected?

Contact seller and say you will give them 50% of asking price in return for not alerting the police! 😁

I went Jazz. No longer need a bloody roof box just to carry our holiday luggage. Managed to get to Switzerland and up a mountain with mpg to spare.

Not mine!

2012 ???????

In April next year I set off on a roadtrip to southern Spain via France and Portugal. Nine days to reach Andalucia, a month in a rented place, then an eight day return drive. 3300ish miles. Hope the wife likes the private covered heated pool with views over to Gibraltar.

Glad it was only a hire car. Did 2500 miles though and no boom.

Drove a 1.0 ecoboost Puma as a hire car for a month. Averaged about 60mpg. Nice little engine that feels like a 1.5. Also had the ultra mild hybrid battery to boost engine a little when required.

I'll give you wood!

My dad had a brown Rover 3500 with Webasto vinyl sunroof. I had a blue Capri with a black vinyl roof at the same time. Vinyl roofs ran in our family.

BUT....lurked next to a LS600h today in Seaford. To my mind the GS450h is a much better looking car. 600h looks bloaty and barge like and altogether too large. Drug dealer car no longer for sale. Doubt new buyer will show his face here.

Iffy mileage history on MOT. Plus cat c. Shiny though!

I bought a GS450h with huge staggered wheels but quickly bought a standard set. Nasty ride with thin rubber!

£600. Stainless power flow was much cheaper than steel Lexus one. Grove asked me how loud I wanted it. I got as quiet as possible. Presumably there is baffle insert choice. Also a shout out to SRD tuning in Ansty if you want any mechanical work done. Owner there ran a LS600h. They changed my radiator for half the price of main dealer.

Brighton. Grove garage. Exactly the same with mine. They did a good job with a stainless system. Proprietor owned a Gs450h as well! Get them both done or other will fail in same way.

Also saw ABBA on a plate today over here.
