Lisa Snowdon Passes with Flying Colours!

38 year old model and presenter Lisa Snowden has passed her driving test first time with only 3 minor faults! The former presenter of The Big Breakfast and Britain’s Next Top Model was said to be ‘so happy’ but claimed to be ‘really nervous during the test.’

Lisa’s task now is to buy herself a car to show off her top quality driving skills. Apparently her car of choice would be a Range Rover although she says she may probably go for something more environmentally friendly.

Lisa's driving instructor has also taught such celebrity students as Kate Moss, Sienna Miller and Alexander McQueen...wowzers!

Maybe I do still want a convertible...

After all my umming and ahhing between a convertible and a regular car, I thought I'd settled on a regular car, but then read this article and thought again. I do still really want a convertible and would really love to experience the sunshine in an open-top car.

Really love the Audi A4 convertible and also the BMW 1 Series convertible. They're both like proper cars with the added benefit that the roof can come down so are still pretty practical too. Although, Stuart is still banging on about getting a Mini Cooper convertible, not too sure about this...will there be enough room for all my shopping bags?!

Will this car fit in my shopping bag?

It seems like a strange concept so, naturally, I'm intrigued. As a self-confessed shopaholic and car fan, the idea of a used car supermarket appeals to me on more than one level. However, surely the idea of a supermarket for cars is a little over the top? They don't fit in your trolley and you can't carry them away in a shopping bag, so what makes it a car supermarket? I guess it's because they have a bigger choice, rather than because they sell baked beans!

Girl buying a used car

Ok, so I would like to buy a car to replace my little Daewoo, as much as I love the little Matiz it's probably time for a change now the car is 8 years old. Thinking of going for a used car from a local dealer. I've been trawling the web and it looks like Lifestyle Europe have a lot of dealerships so a fair amount of choice. So far, have seen a great value used Ford Streetka...yes I'm still banging that old 'I want a convertible' drum! Along the more sensible lines, I'm also considering a 2006 reg used Ford Fiesta, a 2005 reg used Ford Focus, a silver used Renault Clio, a 2006 reg used Ford Fusion and a very cute 2007 reg bright red used Ford Ka - then my nails definitely would match my car!
