Good skills, perhaps even: "easily-maintained"

Worthless creatures.
Seems a bit harsh. Like many professions, some individuals are very good at what they do, while others are not so competent.

oh, Pretty sure FIAT 500s have overtaken BINIs as the Estate Agent car of choice in Brighton now.
The Fiat 500 is a common choice in these parts too (Aberdeen) along with a letting agency that use distinctive red and white Citroen DS3's

Haha that's not a bad idea

To be fair, seeing how some of the agents are round here, I try to not associate myself with them at all.

We had a load drive through the town in their new mini's honking the horns acting like prats not so long ago

The last estate agent I viewed a house with had a Mini Cooper S coupe (the one with the metal roof that looks like a baseball cap).

Must admit I did particularly enjoy spending a month driving a £1 3dr 1997 discovery tdi around for work before the engine went in my 90.

Disco had some but not much paint below the level of the wheel arches, not much boot floor and straight through mid box! Funnily enough it was those with the most expensive houses £600,000+ that liked it the most, did get some funny looks & comment's from everyone else!

Lots of estate agents round here use BMW 118Ds. Invariably with huge graphics that cover up most of the back windows.

My mate who is an estate agent drives a GLE.

With him being an estate agent and me a motor trader I think we've got the two most hated professions out there!

For the short period (~6 months) that I worked as a lettings agent, I drove my 1998 Jeep Cherokee 4.0.
The people of Nottingham didn't really understand it, but I found it a great city car.

My first post by the way, hi all.

I don't think it really matters what car an estate agent drives.
They'll still be a smarmy, deceitful and shallow piece of st that commands my absolute contempt.
