Oh I was under the impression he was a practical lad. I can't see how such a thing is any less whatever-it-is than an Aygo. H Jr: "Hey lads, look at my new car!" Mates: "What the f*ck is that?" H Jr: "It's for sticking our bikes in/on and going on lads' adventures" Mates: "Oh right, good thinking. Let's go!" Guess I'm way out of touch as usual, I'd have loved something like that at 20. Actually, I did in saloon form, but if it had been a Regata estate, I'd have been absolutely thrilled. What a party bus. But I suppose a CashCow has more "cred" (in the eyes of the deranged), although less practical than a proper estate car. H Jr: "Hey lads, look don't judge me, my dad made me have this POS!" Mates: "How much does he freakin' hate you? Jeez...!" H Jr: "He means well, honestly, he thought it'd be good for the bikes." Mates: "Wow!" |

The CashCow?  I honestly think I must come from a different planet. |

Yes, but remember that as well as pulling bikes, Humph Jr is also going to want to pull Annabelle from Alderley Edge or Camilla from Chester. The Dacia Logan is more Doris from Didsbury.

Fold the back seats down in a Logan, and an Aygo. Have a think about it. I strongly advise giving Annabelles and Camillas a giant swerve anyway, they sound very high maintenance. Besides, isn't H Jr already provisioned in the bird department? He can afford to let himself go a bit fleecy. |

He is currently sorted, but she's no Doris...

...or Camilla from Chester. I spent a day in Chester in August. Have to say I didn’t spot many Camillas. 🙈 |

When I was a 20-year old student, it was pretty cool to own any car of any sort! Barely 10% of my cohort did. Oh how things have changed!

Some patina-style dints from life on the road in Paris
I’m sure it’s lovely. And left-hand drive is hardly a big concern — at least for an experienced driver. Shouldn’t it be UK-registered, though?

Ad says it's got a UK MOT, not sure how they managed that without registration but it must be possible somehow. Would be easy to get it registered I imagine, it was a piece of cake when I imported and registered a French reg FIAT Ulysse here years ago.
Coolest thing on the road. This Twingo, not my Ulysse.

You have to have an MOT certificate or other countries equivalent wherever your are registering to register the vehicle.
I think the order when I did it was insurance, test centre, number plates, registration office to present the car with new plates for VIN check and provide bank details for vehicle tax.
VIN has to be the one etched on the chassis not what's in the entertainment system or shown in the dashboard cut out through the windscreen.

Once again showing a true lack of taste there Humphsters, I'm sorry to say. That is an absolute belter. You'd be the coolest kid on the block in that.
