No. My dad briefly owned "that" car... *shudders*

My dad likes 'em. Apparently they all have a very high NCAP rating or 
something. All I know is they all have very soft suspension...

Like I said, I'm the first person in the family to ever own a new car. 
[As opposed to a 20-year-old wreck.]

My mum's car doesn't have anything remotely modern like that. It's hard 
to drive, but not that hard. Mind you, I only have to drive it to move 
it out of my way so I can use my own car. The hardest part is that I 
can't find the accelerator pedal. But the tickover is set so damn high 
that I can still drive it quite fast anyway. [No, it is NOT a diesel.]

Actually, scrub that. The hardest part is finding my mum's ****ing KEYS!

(I still can't get over how my mum looses her keys and her perse EVERY 
DAY OF HER LIFE! I mean, WTF? Every day she has to spend hours searching 
for them. Me, I just always keep mine in the same place, so I can always 
find them. How friggin' hard is THAT??)
