Any car is only boring if you drive it so.

Amen to that.  4.0 V8 and RWD.  I suspect that could be entertaining give a single roundabout.

3 roundabouts between my house and the local takeaways  :grin:

The problem with big barges that were expensive when new is they're still expensive to fix when they get old. You can very easily get a fault that costs more than you paid for the car to repair. Running one of these types of car requires at least a £1K slush fund, at least you have the vectra for daily duties though.

My vote would be a 7 series as they look mean as f**K.

I don't think the E-series is Big Pimpin' enough for Chuff.  :grin:
