  1. ...as an aside, what car (or vehicle) would you choose for this (must be old banger status)?

    I'd go for a 1999 1.3l K11E Nissan Micra - camchain engine, pretty well indestructable....or a 2004 1.4l Honda Jazz - same, but with more space.
     
  2. Modus 1.5DCI - 80+ mpg, very roomy for a little car, highish driving position and comfy - Mk2 version so you don't have to take the car apart to change a headlight bulb :)
     
  3. Diesel. You’ll be flogged and called a climate-facist before you made it past Notting Hill ;)

  8. yip, its my weekday don't give a shit, racking up the miles car. just touching 200k mls, i can confirm having PDI'd it and been the only one to service it, its had nothing more than oil and filters, a bit of brake work, one rear axil and one starter motor.
    over 70mpg.
    cheeper to maintain than a modus
    faster than a modus.
    handles better than a modus
    looks better than a modus.
    panda drivers are cooler than modus drivers.

  9. I think I'd take a Ford Transit or a just buy a camper or a caravan and a scoda, one with those extended mirrors that whack pedestrians and cyclists. I wouldn't take a sat nav. I'd ask for directions like in the good old days. Russia is a big place, can't be that hard to find.
    I'd also bring a pet, like a monkey. Everyone likes monkeys and he could steal food and do tricks for money. I would call my monkey 'dirty bastard'

  10. A 2CV. Nothing complex on it, it's like a meccano set car, you can easily unbolt and rebolt pieces back on. Mind you it might take twice as long as everyone else to get there. :)
    Picture opportunity. Ignore the photobomb by the yellow thing in front of it :D
