I had thought of suggesting that earlier but it would cost a lot of money and probably end up looking like a crisp packet on wheels!

Brilliant idea, any colour you like, will last ages not cost the earth, you could even find a sponsor who would pay for it.........Second thoughts, who wants a car with Durex written down the side

Forget the Jimny, get her to have a run in a Smart For Two ... cheap and brilliant to drive.

We had a HUGE row in Spain a couple of years ago..
She is not a bad driver but has sod all confidence in her ability
I asked her to walk to the entrance of the site, collect the smarty ( where it had been unloaded ) while I sort out the van etc
She just would not drive it.. She will not drive ANYTHING except her own car ( and do not get me started about that.. I bought it as an anniversary pressy after she had said quite a few times that she liked the wee Jimny ( at the time she had an A Class Mec thing ( the one like an overgrown Smarty )
It took me ages to get her to drive the Jimny ............

I had a mid life crisis a couple of years ago, guess that means I am going to live to 100! for some time I had a curiosity what a smart car was like to drive so started looking around, found one that was a part ex that the garage wanted to sell on quickly, many wanted it but I got there first, what a fun car to drive, auto box but changes gear slowly like a manual it felt so fast and it had lots of goodies fitted as standard, thing is I didn't tell the wife I had bought it, Ooops . it was so much fun to drive, like the old days I would go out in it just for a drive, in town it felt so fast, 0-30 mph was blistering but ultimatley the wife was not happy so after 2 months I had my 'fix' and agreed to sell it, made a good profit so made her happy again. Now I have the MH she has talked about me changing the CRV because all I need is a commuter car and she says "why not buy another smarty car". Still love the smarty but think I have had my fix now.
Is there such a thing as an aftershock mid-life crisis because I would love to know what it is like to drive a Porsche

That's what the wife said, she didn't think much of the smart car either

You must have either had an old one or one that had not had the air intake fix done !
Believe it or not, there is a mod you do to the air intake which speeds up the gear changes .. For all the work and mods and go faster stuff I have done I still have absolutely NO idea why it works, only that it does ..
Also worth changing the tic pipe to a brabus one on the pre 2008 models ( esp the 2004 to 2008 mk 7 Passion )
