I managed to get mine on track once on the Clio, think she was just intreeged by what it was all about. She thought the Clio was loud, harsh and stupid. Prefered it when I too the orange wheels off. She much prefers the E34 I currently have as we can use it more, I couldn't see why we couldn't use the Clio more, it was one of the best cars I had owned and driven.
She has to drive my Octavia vRS and thinks that is massive, but thinks A3's, Golfs and Leons are better sized.... Although I have convinced her that I'm going to get an Austin Metro for her to drive mainly so I can have it when she can afford something to drop a 1.8 VVC in it. I even said the browner/beige the better and she agreed....I don't think she knows about the engine swap plan, might keep that from her.
