More or fewer than 4 cylinders.
More or fewer than 5 (forward) gears.
More than 1905cc of displacement.


Before I bought the Skoda last year, I had never had a car with:

Remote central locking.
An immobiliser.
A working alarm.
Traction control.
ABS.
Stability control.
Airbags.
In fact a safety feature of any sort.

I've never had a car with 8 or more cylinders, with more than 300bhp, that's weighed more than 1500kg or that does 0-60 in more than 9 seconds. Oh, or that has had an automatic transmission.
