Anyone for Marmite?

I like the overall look, but not keen on the grille (looks like a furnace door - think Home Alone, basement scene), and the back kind of reminds me of the Megan 225 X'd with the new C4.
Wouldn't say no though!

between that, MUFC, the God channel and endless variations on bid-up TV, hands up who thinks that Sky finally has too many channels?
(and yet still no proper retro toons/kids show channel outside of the hanna-barbara biased boomerang)
the concept looks ..... wierd. not bad, but kind of like an RX8 gone melty. maybe not colouring it like a GOD DAMN IPOD would help?
(isnt a shooting brake supposed to be like a sporty 3 door estate with a really shallow rake to the rear hatch? i can't see how this qualifies ... the shape is more suggestive of an A3 - medium to small hatch - crossed with a TT - compact sports coupe)

Yeah your right Tahrey, a shooting brake is meant to be a lux 2 door estate.
I read that it was going to be another varient they would offer on the TT platform, e.g. coupe, convertble, and shooting brake (hatch/estate thing).
Dont have ant real problems with it, dont think ill have to worry too much
about owning one though, im guessing it would be outside my budget! (us poor teachers!!)

pffffft
now, having a student teacher as a very good friend of mine, all i can say is, shut your pie hole!
you're on about seven grand a year more than a (trainee) clinical technician gets, even whilst you're a trainee yourself...
i'm just going to count the pennies til i can afford an SDi A3
(yes, we do make her get the drinks in at every opportunity making that point ... in a group made up of us two, a failed self employed stationary tycoon, and a nearly-qualified lawyer who doesnt seem to have much cash to show for it ..... even more so now she's showing it off with a brand new Fiesta)
