Well
When i met my wife, I sort of didn't have a car. When we moved in together, I bought a 1994 1.9D clio. I didn't let her near it for nearly a week before i cleaned it. She wasn't really impressed as she was feeling a lot of vibrations on the floor when i was doing 100+ mph on it. At some point she wanted to learn how to drive and did a few sessions in it. She hated the fact that the steering wheel was so heavy but loved the fact that was a diesel and wouldn't cut easily.
The next clio, she was the same. It was a 1994 1.8RSi. The car was standard but was driven quite hard. She was so sceared of the acceleration on it and when i was driving on runabouts, she used to knock her head on the door windows.
She loved my 1.8 Laguna 2000 reg. Nice and comfy.
Now that we moved back to Greece and she got a driving license, we bought a 1.4 16v Clio 2002 reg. She loves it. It will be her car as i will be getting a Megane Coupe for me at some point. She asked for Stripes, logos, full bodykit, shark fin antenna, ICE installation, Rear Dynamic spoiler etc....
She is thrilled with the sound of the K&N induction kit.
