a recent holiday in USA made me realise just how small the D3 is, however they are all buying piouses over there 
and with petrol at $4 a gallon, I kept getting apologies from forecourt attendants as to the $60 fill up price.....my reply, If I had a tanker, I'd fill it up and ship it home!

DrD, last car for Mrs DSL (before present Jazz) was an Aygo. Great little run around, 50 mpg, cheap to insure & tax etc., easy to park. AirCon was like opening your window in the arctic on a cold day. Only down side was it was just too small to use on long journeys or with 2 adults in the front. When it came time to sell there was very litle interest in buying one as there were so many around 2nd hand. Drive a hard bargain! Honda Dog U better DUCK!!!!!
