How have you found downsizing from the likes of the C5 & C6 to the DS3?

[dsyDS3]

Easy, really. They're so completely different that you can't compare them. The C6 in particular was vast, supremely comfortable and silent, but a PITA to park and expensive to run. The DS3 handles like a go-kart, is a doddle to park and does 60+mpg. Both brilliant.

=O Why did you get rid of the Starlet?

[Daz9681]

It had a smoking problem lol, checked the turbo, which was fine, replaced the cylinder head then decided to break it for parts as i'd managed to bend the chassis aswell, it was fixable i just didn't see the point.

Just for the hell of it cos i loved it
