    Volkswagen Up! This little car can do so many things. I did long-distance trips sitting in the back, hauled a dishwasher in its boot with the back seats down, even used it as a normal car for commute and it’s great to drive. Sure, you have to understand the limitations (it is a city car and mine had 60bhp) but for what it is and what it costs to maintain and operate, I loved it so much.

      There’s a short term rental place here that rents out mostly Up!s, it’s not a bad little car. Merging onto the highway can be kind of exciting though.

      Being used to driving a Renault Kangoo definitely made it feel like I was driving a clown car though!

        It is, same with the Seat Mii. If you buy the VW, you get the gloss black boot door (which blends with the rear window and look a bigger piece of glass) and possibly some options that are not offered on the Seat and Skoda.

      I personally find the Up! GTI to be really cute (and sporty) with those GTI wheels. Not in a sarcastic way, really - it’s just a very good design overall.
