Onoez!!

At the moment I'm really only doing the round town stuff, not much on long drives - if I do longer drives, I'd take it off.

Are you actually storing anything in it or is this just turning Into a stance wagon with a box?

What's the need for it just out of interest? You've not exactly got a small car as it is?

Doing a few big trips this summer to places, you'd be amazed the amount of times I've managed to fill the car up... Yes it's big, but sometimes might need it for work.

If you're going somewhere for a few days with 4/5 people and you don't want to take 2 cars - perfect.

It's actually a joint purchase with Anton - since he's got his C30, it'll fit on his once he gets roof bars, it came with a *genuine* boot liner for mine and a roof bike rack also... So it's worked out quite well.

Fair play! I've just bought a detachable tow bar for the zim zimmer as having a saloon isn't practical!

Wouldn't mind a detachable bar for mine, they have an insane towing weight...
