Hyundai i30 1.6 CRDi on a 57 plate.
We call it the 'chug mobile'. Its very dull, but its what makes the Z4 'weekend car' possible, so for that reason its very important.

Here's my son enjoying the recent summer weather last week, in front of our DD - a 2015 Honda Jazz. Awesome wee car with tons of grunt for a 1500, and packed full of toys. Added tints and Mugen wheels for a touch of boy racer to the family car.
Don't worry, the Z4 is safely tucked up in the garage during the hail :thumbsup:
