That is fantastic. Even better than the '80s poverty spec cars where they'd have your choice of a giant clock, or the gearshift pattern. All it needs to complete the look is a huge blanking plate with "Kia" written on it.

(Makes mental note to find some excuse to go somewhere and hire a Picanto.)

They weren't allowed to drive such a beast. Have you voted on the Lambo vs Picanto thread yet?

Because it's only available in a '2' or upwards, and a 1 is at least £1500 cheaper.
