Stumbled across this on BBC Radio i Player .
Worth a listen, in particular this one episode , from an original series on BBC4 called Stepping Stones by Piers Plowright
Episode 3 -Titled 'The Chuckler : A Short Ride in a Smart Machine'
Happy, sad and reflective described in just 15 minutes. It brought back real memories of owning our original 'family minor' over the very same same sort of time period starting with two young daughters.

That's good to listen to and interesting, especially as I have a Trafalgar Blue convertible!
