Quite a change there. Out of interest what was it like owning and driving an Atom daily. At 18, I'm not looking to buy, but just interested what it's like.

Just J-j-j-jiggle it a bit.

I was driving a Minor once (Not my own), when the back rest gave way. There was a first aid kit in the car, so I wedged that in between the back seat and the driver's seat and managed to finish the journey. Now if it had been the Midget, the "Heelboard" is right behind the back rest anyway, so it couldn't have gone anywhere!!

The standard seats do seem a bit low in the Minor. The Newton Commercial ones are a bit higher and certainly more supportive.
