Hi, thanks for the welcome !
A couple of things brought me here to MirageForum.com: Buyer's remorse on the purchase as a Golf R is overkill for a 34 KM round-trip commute and about 800 KM total monthly driving. I have an affinity for smaller vehicles and hatchbacks (had a 2007 Yaris sedan, 2009 Smart fortwo, 2014 2-door Jeep Wrangler). Lastly, I've always got to have "the next car" lined up as a CYA or just-in-case as you never know what might happen...

Hello craigq and welcome to the forum.
Let us know if there's anything you'd like to learn about the Mirage. Sub-compact cars like this are not for everyone. I had my doubts too but I enjoy driving mine and I'm glad I got one.

Coincidentally, we have another Ottawa-area former-Smart owner on the forum who got a Mirage.
Is it too much of a stretch to get a Mirage for commuting duty and keep the Golf R for spirited driving/trips?I've always got to have "the next car" lined up as a CYA or just-in-case as you never know what might happen...
One of our members just posted how much he's enjoying his new (used) Mirage, especially because it keeps the miles off his play car Miata.
