Well what's this all about? Is the Clio for gays or does it turn you gay over 30 years? Luckily my mum only had one for a little bit when I was teenager so I wasn't exposed to it's homosexual ways for too long. I must be amazingly heterosexual as I used to borrow it and do burnouts and handbrake turns and never once felt like grabbing my mates knee instead of the gearstick. Maybe if I'd bought that Clio Williams I wanted I'd have been handbraking into secluded toilet spots for some cottaging action?

French cars are definitely gay. Currently driving my mother's 207 hdi and it has already started waving the surrender flag after I gave it good run out but it only has 48k miles on it.
It's almost as if it said 'well if you think you're thrashing me then have some of this' and the climate control bulbs blew, the brake bulb on one side went, the passenger window won't go down and it keeps telling me there's a puncture which there isn't. I've only done about 250 miles in the cunting thing. Oh yeah, the wiper stalk has gone all floppy as well and only work on auto when it starts to rain.
Apart from that it handles well enough, can't feel the road like the mini but it does what I want and the front feels a bit like my mr2 but that's probably due to the power steering being too light. It uses the same engine as my mini and has highlighted my engine is down on power. If I had this lump in, it would fly.
On the other than I've also been driving a very straight car - the Audi a4 tdi estate. This is proper man who carries a slide rule in his pocket straight. Proper hb pencil and staedler eraser in the glovebox straight. This model though has been scraped down the side of the wall at the entrance to the drive and left to go a lovely rust shade. This is complemented by a bumper that has a lovely broken splitter hanging off at just the right angle
