ItsChad (and foama): you're making me envious about your car options... again. I'd love to try a 1.0L Aygo or one of its twins. Is the automatic a CVT or geared?

Thanks for the advice and insight there, itschad, sometimes feels like the stars align and you get that slice of advice you need to chew on by another set of eyes far and wide away. Country proper...
Keep in mind - Manuals are still quite popular in other countries. My son-in-law (Finland) had to take his driver's test with a manual transmission. Otherwise, you receive a restricted license. ...
Looks like the mothership is pulling up anchor and leaving the UK.

We not only don't have the Aygo, but Toyota has pulled the plug on their other small cars here. Yaris & Prius c are now history.
We do not have the Aygo, in Canada anyway. Probably not in the States either.
I think it's awesome that you drive manuals. I know all of 1 guy at work with a stick shift besides me, and that's a...
I agree with you Chad. Let's say this accident had to go to court to be settled. The judge is going to totally rule in this guy's favor. He did nothing to hurt his case. I would have involved...
Same here. I'd like to think I'd have his resolve in defusing a situation such as this but I really won't know till it happens.
Whoa whoa whoa. The man could tell immediately that the teenager was freaking out hard, so he de-escalated the situation and showed compassion. I'm not a religious man but a lot of "anti-bleeding...
My apologies to anyone who felt insulted by this post. It was meant to be a joke, not an insult.
I love driving manuals & I have aways owned manuals. I never felt the need to bash those who prefer to drive automatics. I know some pretty hard working Americans that prefer to drive automatics. ...
How do you really feel?
Glad you are liking your new car. I am trying to imagine what it would feel like shifting with my left hand? I've been shifting manuals since the 1970's with my right hand, I am not sure that I...
I'm keeping the St. George cross clean too.
It's a made in the US Chevrolet but likely based on vauxhall, holden and daweoo parts. I'll get pics later.
His Dad was royally pissed!! My old friend was very hyper-active; we would climb trees a hundred feet up around the same time. No fear. And how I ended up the most Obsessive Compulsive person I've...
A subset of these Vauxhaul/Opel vehicles are sold in the States under the Buick brand. Honestly, very sharp/classy looking vehicles. Just not that popular, though.
Actually had my eye on the Buick...

The same goes for Mirage owners. Once you become a Mirage owner, you remain in the Mirage family for life. Even if the Mirage wasn't...
I thought I was taking over as the new prodigal son. Now that this Chad dude is back, I guess that plan is shot to hell. Oh well.
Most people in the automotive industry feel similarly as you...
Hey Chad, welcome back. Too bad your Merc didn't work out.
So I had a look on google at that Vauxhall you bought, sharp-looking car in blue for sure. Another smaller type car that we don't get in...
Take care chad. It's been good having you around.
See ya, itschad. It's been a slice.
Enjoy that Merc!

From my experience, buying cars is very rarely a money making venture. If you want a hobby, that's one thing but don't spend your retirement fund on it expecting to double your investment. But keep...
Haha! You simply have to stay on here Chad. MirageForum is better served having you on here, truly. Besides this site is turning into a subcompact, compact, whatever car enthusiast forum. I think...
Guess it depends on how you're taught as well, l'm just used to it over here in the states, but if l traveled over to your neck of the woods, l'd be a wreck...quite literally lol :)
