Leaving aside the sickening condescension - what was this Ford electric commuta? Never heard of an electric car back then - anyone know about it?

Back then, I reckon that if I had been foolish enough to let Susan, my first wife, see that programme, she would have vapourised the TV!

I mostly drive Himself's big Land Rover Defender, love that car, though at the moment I am down in Perth and I have the Wee Polo with me as his is needed up North for all sorts of work. I still miss my own big Zuzuki 4x4

I'm always wary when I see a woman pushing a pushchair or shopping trolly.  ;D

Motor manufacturers realised a few years ago that the features they were developing for women also appealed to a lot of men.

I wondered where heated vibrating seats came from..

I wish someone would design a car with a place for your handbag !   The nearest I drove was a Citroen CV - remember those ? the gear stick was on the dash board and was ideal for a handbag :)

Love your wee doggie Raven :)
