"What category does a Roomster fit in then ?! "
The Roomster is great in my book, function over form it seems to me PU, but with it`s own elegance because of that.
The new Jazz though?
Eddie, Don`t forget the flat cap. ;)

Oh perlease, elegance because it has form and function? what pretentious poppycock. The roomster is a shed. It has all the abilities of a shed. Sheds are practical and immensly useful and pure in design, but elegant? non nein no.
An amdega conservatory is immensly useful, pure in design and has elegance. The Roomster is no Amdega.

A strange analogy. And a relative of mine found that parts of his Amdega, which was claimed to be 100% hardwood, were made of MDF. That took about a year to rectify.

Heh heh, thought I'd find you here AE.
What's wrong with a toad squatting or otherwise in fluid dynamics terms? The thing has evolved as an amphibian and is seriously streamlined.
Heh heh AE.

Oh please,
I have a Skoda Roomster, as recommended by Honest John. It happens to be an excellent car, get over yourself, its not just about looks. It is well built, handles well and the Skoda dealerships are extremely courteous and not at all pretentious, unlike some other dealerships we could mention (VW, BMW et al). My husband recently had a BMW 5 series estate, hated it and has bought a Toyota instead. My Roomster will be up for sale soon as I now have to buy my own car, but I will probably be looking for a Toyota or a Ford. I used to have a Ford Puma, that has got to be one of the best buys ever. So no more calling the Roomster a shed, its well built, practical and safe, with an abundance of character.

So why don't you buy one with your own money?

I can't afford it. I only have £4,000 to spend and that is why I am also looking for some advice on another thread. I live down a farm track with many potholes on the track and also on the council-maintained roads. But cars are not just about looks, they are also about individuality. As I said I had a Puma before and that handled better than any posh German car. I just find that the people who drive around in expensive and sometimes ugly and expensive (Porsche Cayenne) cars are agressive on the road and not only are they bad drivers they have no manners either. I have always followed Honest John's advice and it was upon his recommendations that I bought the Roomster.
