Those brands of cars Audi, Range Rover BMW Mercedes  etc, I consider   to be vulgar and tasteless symbols of status, therefore another reason to drive a modest car such as a  Jazz,  I feel sad our society has declined to such extremes of   narcissism, conspicuous consumption  and self-exhibition.

Well said. Couldn't agree more.

No1: Please do not assume that I drive what I can afford. I drive what I want to, I do not feel the need to display my wealth with a status symbol. After all, Jeff Bezos drives a regular Honda Accord and he is a fairly well healed fella to the tune of many billions USD.

No2: I don't need a car to massage my ego. I'm quite happy in my life and do not need to compensate for anything with a badge! I enjoy my Jazz life, brilliant cars.

Another in full agreement.

I'm hopefully going Jazz because it suits my changing lifestyle.



Back in the day my in-laws lived in Rye and the mother-in-law worked in Woolies in Rye high street. She said Paul McCartney used to pull up outside in a battered old purple Mini

I want a car which is reliable, versatile, a decent amount of internal space without occupying too much road, cheap to run and cheap to maintain. Not many of the "premium" models tick many of those boxes.

I have been interested in and driven cars for well over half a century. I passed my test in 1967 and cars had  been used as a status symbol for at least half a century before that.

Nothing new under the sun!
