Just found these photos of a 5 for sale in the trading post. Goes to show what you can do if you don't own a cardigan.

Sorry to say, but I think that thing looks terrible, and real magnet for thieves!

I couldn't imagine not having any boot space in my 5, as Mrs Benny and I regularly use it for our supermarket shopping on a Sunday and it's really amazing how many grocery bags you can fit in the boot.

Don't missunderstand me, I love good music in my car, but you can get excellent reproduction without filling the boot and the parcel shelf.
It isn't the car with the biggest or the most sub woofers and speakers that sound best.
I'd rather pay more for a smaller set-up that sounds really good, than a flashy looking set-up that sounds just average.
I've heard a lot of sound systems in cars, and very often the flashiest looking set-ups only sound ordinary, although very loud.

Nah been around awhile. Probably more like the "strawberry face" S15 front on an old S13
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
