I miss the crappy plastic interior.
I miss the cheap paintwork that was chipped and rusted after only 2 years.
I miss the brakes that made me find religion, afresh, everytime I had to do an emergency stop.
I miss the customer service and support, for example when the gearbox went 3 months after the end of warranty they tried to charge me £3k to have it fixed.
I miss having to stand around in the cold and wet waiting for the RAC everytime it broke down!
I miss the laughter of my friends and collegues everytime I had to explain why I was late because of another break-down.
I miss threatening the managing director of my local dealer that I would return the car for a full refund if it broke down again in the next 6 months - the only time it ran reliably.
Most of all I miss the fact that I wan't able to put the car in the crusher when I got rid of it and bought a Honda.

Oh, I love my Honda!!!!!

Go on John, give us a clue....What was that dog you were driving...?
