Magnum ests are quite rare, any Viva model isnt exactly common. Looks good.

The Sportshatch is just a HC estate with a ugly front badly fitted on by chimps

Never have liked the ugly sloped front slapped on top of the much prettier Viva face.

I know I am in a minority, I just like to twitch people :twisted:

Each to their own, I just prefer the flat front.
