I'm going to slap you one in a minute! The MiTo is like a little jack russell. It looks sweet but can bite your bollocks off. Its a quick little rat.

Lay off though, it's only my first car!

A red car.  Some sort of Ford.  I think it’s a Fiesta, but can’t be sure unless I look at the badge on the back.

I’m not a car person 😄

You know more about cars than me Lime.

All I can say is I am often a passenger in Skoda Karoq.

I was looking to get something that didn't get attention from the insurance companies. If you think about it, everyone and their nan drives Corsas, Polos, Seats, Minis and the like. Not many MiTos being driven by new blood. This helped with my insurance massively.

Add my girlfriend with 7 years no claims onto it and a dreaded black box (it's coming out in June) and my insurance is just a hair over a grand. Plus, an Alfa as a first car? Proper petrol head. It's gorgeous when it's all clean and neat. I haven't given it a proper wash with wax for months.

Oof... My first year with black box was £1200, this year was £800 with no box - until I moved to uni and they charged me an extra £350 lol

This year coming when I renew will be £440 or so, until I move back to uni when it'll go back up to around £900...

Black Box? I had to google it to see if it was like airplane black box. f*ck all that. In my state the governor is working to try to get boxes put in our cars, but not to lower insurance, so they can track mileage so they can tax you at the end of the year based on miles driven. 

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

I drive a 1983 Mercedes W123 stretch but it usually only comes out to play on the weekends.  The rest of the time I'm in a 1990 Peugeot 205 or even more likely a grubby big Sprinter van

Lols Dave, my second car was a '86 205 GTI, man I do miss that little frenchie.

My last car which I had to sell a couple years ago was a '08 Mercedes C300. I can still cry about it 😅

So for the daily drivers IRL do 2 wheelers also count? I only drive a nice little scooter now! 😅💪
