I bought a 2.5TD "for my wife". She likes it but describes it as an "old man's car". Who is the old man she is referring to? [smiley=undecided.gif]

I think the car looks quite good but a bit dated now that "angular" styling is back. Not fast: 0 to 60 in the time to the next change of style.

Cheers

At least the mig still looks like a car not like all the new cars there all round or all the same shape.

In 1994 I bought a Rover 827. People told me that was a Granddads car, made no difference, was one of the best cars I have ever had for comfort, reliability and speed. Only beaten by the Mitsubishi Galant :y
So the Mig might have that reputation but does it matter what others think.
