"but get the Ambience spec" ??
Only had one car ever. A Reliant Kitten Estate it got me from A to B just as any other car would. The only difference was the paint came off when I washed it.
A custom built Mercian and a Tesco full suspension special are just bikes and do the same job but I know which I would prefer.
Drive a car with well sorted dynamics such even a basic VW Golf (of any era) down a twisty road and repeat in an early 1990s Ford Escort with it's rough CVH engine, bouncy but under-damped suspension and slow, vague rack and bungee cord steering and report back.
I wonder what went wrong with the 1.4 HDi engine they shared with Ford (as fitted in my Fusion), then? There a bugger when (not if ) the injector seals go. Hours of work for 4 little copper washers smaller than a penny, mainly chipping off the coal that gets formed around the inlet manifold. Mind you, otherwise it's a lovely car. Sits at 70 all day, and will do 50mpg in urban areas without trying. £30Peugeot make great diesels as do Mercedes.
They are not the same, bikes require effort. So it is best have one suited to the purpose you are using it for. A car requires you to press a pedal. That's it.A custom built Mercian and a Tesco full suspension special are just bikes and do the same job but I know which I would prefer.

Next you will be saying car drivers aren't killing the planet, global warming isn't taking place and it's okay to murder trees.
And I do not hate inanimate objects I hate their exploiters (been waiting to use that word for ages)
Yes Anything after 4 wheels (or even 3) a steering wheel and engine and a box to go round it.the laws of diminishing returns usually kick in.
This.What I'm saying is that there is pleasure to be had from using a well engineered machine and that applies whether it's a bike, a car, a chainsaw, a socket set or a toilet roll holder.

Yes conspicuous consumption is important to some people.This.
For cars, there's a world of difference between sitting in a steel box waiting to arrive somewhere, and an enjoyable drive. Granted traffic will generally determine the experience at peak times, but off-peak the car you drive can make a world of difference to the experience. And even sitting in traffic, I'm a happier chap with the roof down.
Have you tried Sherwood Gadwell moleskin trousers Or Reliant Kitten Estate? Their is nothing to laugh at. They are an experience to die for.OMG I think brand is finally developing a sense of humour.
I'm not sure you can accuse a man who drives a 14-year-old car of conspicuous consumption ...Yes conspicuous consumption is important to some people.
So does a bike.IT'S A CAR a cars a f*cking car. It gets you from A to B
