Mine are 18 and 21 with cars of their own so the most it would have to manage would be a couple of carry on cases and few squashy bags to cover a week or two away with the wife.

Don't think I'd be splashing out on the £25k Luis Vuitton fitted luggage set though. eek

Great cars to use daily. Had mine 4 years and its plenty fast enough. Its little understood as its performance is usually compared with cars of a similar price point which is understandable but its not what the cars about. Its an economy car that's quick and fun. The older ones are CAR TAX free although your more liable to have Air con compressors failures - mine did at a cost of £1800. (used by the battery - not just the interior) Tyres are cheap, 40-75mpg but economy depends on your commute and if you charge it. I've only done about 5Kmiles in the last year but not put fuel in it for 6 months. The worst part is your stuck with main dealers as few garages will touch them so maintenance costs can be high.
