What does this car say about you?

I want a big car, but can't afford/justify a premium marque or 4x4.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

It doesn't register. It's a kid carrying machine.

Probably get the new model dynamique tom tom. Keeps the wife happy and she drives it most tbh. I couldn't hack it if I drove it all the time as it's rather dull.
