I am *told*...which is always to be taken with a pinch of salt... I will get my iQ2 first week of March. I too am upgrading from an Aygo which I bought second hand last year and I have to say have loved. What a great little car it is. Cheap to run and I bought it for nearly half the price of my new iQ2. But you see this car and somehow common sense deserts you because just like my iPhone I know it is over hyped, over priced and that there are better, cheaper mobiles out there but somehow I don't want them!

I am extra excited because aged 38 , albeit only licensed since 03, this is my first new car... And I have decided to be a bit silly and have the better spec and the auto transmission. I know this is a lot of money to spend on a city car... But hey what the hell. A lot of my mates think I am mad because the car is a bit metrosexual. Also I am buying a 1ltr engine and they keep telling meof all the marvellous gas guzzlers I could buy for the same price...Did you know you could get a blah blah blah for that money... I like the £35pa Road tax, the cheap insurance band and the warm, smug glow of looking down at those who are cuddling the planet less than me...I mean I am already a Vegetarian and this is a vegetarian's car if ever there was one!

I do worry abit about the lack of storage... I was thinking I carry a spare cannister of fuel and there is simply nowhere to put it in the IQ... but then I have carried a spare cannister of fuel for 6 years without ever having need of it before so well perhaps I am simply, in a deeply zen way, ridding myself of unnecessary burdens...like a spare wheel...which I have needed in the past! Well. Heart has ruled head and we will soon see if it was the right way to go!

Oh and £930 for Sat Nav... Tell me they are having a laugh! Well the Tomtom will be coming with me from the Aygo.
