I have a thing for the Dacia Duster...

Classic PH, simpler and cheaper the car it must be better. You don’t want your nice expensive car because it drives well, it’s because your a badge snob.
In it's place and for its purpose, the Duster is brilliant.I'm not sure why somebody would buy a 4x4 one if they live in Middle England suburbia.
Ps. Simple, cheap cars that drive well are great.
d every time it rained. She did her best not to use the A/C though because she was so preoccupied with fuel consumption. The price was about the only redeeming feature.I am sure the Duster is not perfect. However I am probably being a bit mean comparing it to a Series Landrover.
After all, driving a Series Landrover is just slightly less pleasant than driving an angle grinder.
I know, I have owned a few and have a 1954 Series 1 at the moment.
The analogy to A 2CV/Renault 4 is very good. Both superb vehicles. I have just invested in a brand new Renault 4 chassis from Holland. Very Exciting.
You would never catch me in a Q2/Q5/Q7 ever. The modern equivalent of a Rover 213.

Owned and loved 2 x series 3 landys, Citroën dyane, Renault 4 which I adored and a brace of fiat pandas, one a lovely 750l, and a brace of cinquecento sportings. Good few ford Ka including and you can mock all you like, a stunning wee streetka. Add a brace of 70s beetles which i wish id never sold and yup, I have had more fun in those simple cars than any of the fancier stuff I've owned. Giugiaro (spelling) always claimed the panda was his best and favourite design. After all, driving a Series Landrover is just slightly less pleasant than driving an angle grinder.

I've got no interest in fast or expensive cars, I love cheap little cars e.g. the new Hyundai i10 N-Line is exciting me at the moment - it's a 100bhp, 1.0 turbo. Pure fun.
That looks great IMO; would love to see one in a dark metallic red alongside the black roof/upper bit!
It’s alright actually. Much better than the 1.6 non turbo that we used to fit, that was hard work!
I will reiterate that it really, really is worth spending the extra money for the essential spec.
Most people we sell Access models to come back wanting a stereo, speakers etc and wish they had aircon etc.
You’ll spend more upfront but you will get a vast majority of it back come resale time.
