I mean it’s cute looking and all, but people seem to be pulling their todgers over it like it’s the new Messiah.

A bloke at work has even ordered one to replace his Alf’s Giulia. World’s gone mad.

You answered your own question, in the first part of your first sentence.

I preferred the shape of the old one.

Russ Abbott effect

Is it because it looks like a little g-wagon? There’s even bodykits for them

It looks like a Tonka toy and a micro machine. What's not to like?

Mebbe Alf wants his car back.

They look really bad when parked next to an actual 4x4 as they’re so small. It’s like an aggressive chihuahua.

Yeah, but would you have one as your main family car?!

we’re back to that “why worry about what other people do” thing again though!

I like the look of them, I have no use for one though.

I showed it to the O/H. She really likes it. Doesn't care what it's like or how it drives, she just likes the look of it.

It's a good off-roader and it's cheap.

I think they look quite cool, and they're supposed to be reasonably handy off road if you're into that sort of thing.

I suppose.

Bit silly using a compact 2 door car with no boot as a family car but hey, we’re all different and some of us are just a bit more fucking stupid than others

Latest fad car IMO, there'll be loads for sale in a year or two once people realise a bouncy slow noisy little van with a cute face is actually hateful in daily life.

I'd have one as a second car/run around perhaps, but the Swift is probably a far better vehicle for most would be owners. Or the Ignis if you want cutesy.

It’s far better than seeing another X1, Golf, Disastra, Focus etc. Plus these kind of cars generally appear in nicer bright colours.

There are a lot of Citroen Cactus around here as it’s great at being a small family car. The more variety the better.

Dave!
