Do it!
You will look less gay![tongue out](/inc/images/tongue.gif)
Had mine for over 5 years now.
Still love it... It even followed me to the other side of the world.

Just to explain the above is not strictly mine, it's my wife's (although I do occasionally go gay and drive it
)- it was just that due to driveway space we couldn't justify 4 cars, hence my old landie toy had to go to make way
The real dilemma now is that I do want another one but we still have space restriction.... if I buy one therefore it will have to replace the main family car (alfa estate) and will have to do all family duties, including trips to Scotland a few times a year to visit family and holidays to france etc - obviously it can be a fair bit newer than my old '86 one, but I still have a few reservations.
What do we reckon, TD5 110 wagon as catch all family car, or will it drive me mad? It would be backed up by a TVR Cerbera and the aforementioned Smart, albeit neither being enormously practical.
ps. Sorry for thread hijack!!

I'd agree with prev two posts. Our 90 was actually g/f's only car for a year - and at the time we were living in Devon and she was using Heathrow at least once a fortnight so lots of miles. It's now a second (or maybe third/fourth!) car but we still use it a lot. I'll usually hop in it for local day to day stuff rather than muck around getting anything else out of the garage and we often use it for a change on longer trips too. Great car to turn up at our fave posh country Hotels if we're having a w/e break. Out poses anything else in our garage! We're just about to chop it in for the new model and that's a fair bit more civilised on road and absolutely an everyday 'family' car IMO. ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)
Just trying to decide whether to go 110 this time. Prefer the 'chunkiness' of 90 but the 110 offers more space and I hear is more comfortable/a better drive on road? Comments anyone?

Ive driven the new 110 for a few hours and was impressed by it. less body role & quieter. 6 gears for the mway will also help.![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)
