    Hire car on The Faroes.

    I also use them for both car and house insurance. Always a friendly voice.

    Lexus was the only progression from Saab for me. But the bean counters started to have an influence over Saab in the early 2000's. I suspect they reached Lexus 10 years later.

    Not enough Saabs on this forum!

    Oh go on then. One more for you.

    I think if I were to buy one again I would opt for the 1.3 engine. The 1.0 is a little on the weedy side.

    Much nicer car than say an Aygo.

    Had one for a few years now. 1.0 CVT. Has been bullet proof so far. Only niggle is white paint on bonnet is poor and flakes off. Not as good mpg as I would have hoped. Probs 55mpg. My Jazz 1.5 gets 10 more.

    Just peaked at 70mpg on my 30 mile commute today in the Jazz. Best yet. Maybe the hot weather was good for it. Air con switched off. Hypermiling can actually be fun. Build up the speed slowly but then keep the momentum thru the corners. Try not to use the brakes.

    Honda Jazz. I have the "Sport" version. Mostly cosmetic. Huge cargo for a small car. Excellent crashability with lots of safety systems like auto collision detection. Driving experience is mildly amusing if you use flappy paddle mode, but mostly the idea is to extract as many mpg as possible (62mpg on a 30 mile commute). Low insurance as it is an old persons car, lowish road tax £165 (1500cc). You either have a frugal car and drive accordingly or you have a fast car and drive accordingly. I had 340bhp in the Lexus and now I have 130bhp. Double the mpg is the price to pay for loss of horses.

    If you get one with a sunroof you have more headroom, at least in the Mk 3

    Ended up getting a Jazz. 60+ genuine mpg. 1.5litre Sport with a tiny s. Like a small van with the seats down. Flappy paddle gearbox if you like! Lots of tech for a tiny car and actually built in Japan. Main thing is it is not German nor DSG.

    These are the fobs I have
  19. Mossypossy
    I still have two spare fobs for a GS Mark 3 if anyone wants to do the diy route to reprogram them for a spare.

    Having driven a bit this week I can report it does 60mpg on a 30 mile cross country commute. 75 mpg on a slow motorway (130 miles) run with some drafting.🤗 Switching to sport mode only reduces mpg to 54. So it does what the compromise car should.
  21. Mossypossy
    Wanted to avoid DSG at all costs. Compared with a Polo but Jazz seemed much nicer.
  22. Mossypossy
    Old people mobile. It's a Jazz Sport. Tepid Hatch. 1.5 iVTEC. Does the job without any danger of increasing your heart rate.
  23. Mossypossy
    Replaced the big Lexus and tiny Smart with a compromise car. Had to be under 4m long, automatic, space in rear for 6 foot plus adults, 50mpg+, sub 10 seconds 0-60 (I know, scary fast). Ended up with this!
  24. Mossypossy
    You pays your money. You can have my 2009 450h for £6k, or pay MUCH more for a slightly younger model.

    8 grand saving on dealer price for Yaris is just too tempting. Second place was VW Polo Blue GT.
