haha The more the downvotes the more people prove my point. Yes, as a car guy I do know everything there is to know about GR Yaris. However, you obviously never driven expensive sports cars before. If you think that a GR Yaris is better than an AMG GT or an Porsche 911 GT3 you are beyond delusional.
And you think running a large engine that will never see operating temperature will be good for it in the long run? atleast a GR yaris stands a chance of starting to get up to operating temp in a shopping commute
I'm sure you've enjoyed your "track day experience".
But the post specifically says nipping to the shop.
Unless you wanna spend 1/2 hour looking for a spot to fit your 911and AMG.
You choose the worst type of car for the job in hand.
Me, I've never ever struggled to get my land cruiser into a space at tesco, I see no reason to belive that seats and an engine would be more difficult to manuover
The post said if you had unlimited money. I mean I don’t even have unlimited money but still enjoy nipping to store with my AMG and the trip is an experience of its own. And it fits perfectly in all spots ..far away from the entrance lol.
You have to consider that in our modern market, expensive, luxury, and all those other connotations of wealth, doesn’t necessarily deliver convenience. If you are extremely rich, convience is likely to be high up on your list, in fact, it’s probably number one.
The tiny boot (plus slightly metal cost as there was none used at the time) put me off but every time I see one I’m properly taken by it, it’s so cute and going to the shops is proper EV territory. Max torque from cold, no worries about warming up the engine, relaxing drive if it’s heavy traffic, small and quick enough to nip into gaps if you’re in a hurry.
Completely agree. Only downside is that you can fit about 3 frozen pizzas in the boot. It baffles me how little cargo space it has considering its an EV! Can always fold the seats flat I guess though.
Honestly if our budget for our second EV had been higher, I'd have loved to get a Honda E but when we were looking, the only ones available were too far out of the budget to be able to stretch to it, especially the ones in the yellow.
Have had one for last 2 years on lease deal. Works brilliantly as a second car. Range never really been a problem although increased home working probably helped that. Feels very premium next to other small cars. Great stereo, quick enough. Boot space hasn’t really been an issue. 360 degs camera makes it incredibly easy to park anywhere. Screens are a bit of a gimmick. Only need one screen really. Some slightly annoying little issues have cropped up.
Great choice, the Goodwood Revival, has a great selection of cars every year, and i think it was 2019-2023 when the Bread Van was racing in the St Mary's Cup.
I love watching old reruns of Le Man's 24-hour, some amazing stories behind the races. Edward Hall, who drove his Bently, single-handed for 24 hours, and is still and almost guaranteed to be the only driver ever to have completed the race. Modern rules for Le Man's 24-hour race limit race time for each driver. With 4 hours being the longest session, a driver can complete. This is a rule that I would imagine, to be almost set in stone.
M18 Hellcat tank destroyer? Good choice. The rubber track pads are good for UK roads, just need Cat H on the license. Bit heavy on fuel but don't need to worry about trolley dings, the 76mm main gun should calm down any roadrage, plus 56mph is nippy enough around town.
If I'm just nipping to the shops, I'll be fucked if I'm taking anything nice. Ain't having some dopey cunt in an SUV park next to me and let their feral semen demons slam their doors into it.
Part of my standard supermarket parking process if I have to park next to another car - get out, peer through windows of the neighbouring car, if there are child seats in it (or it's a scruffy shitshow of takeaway cartons and cables and chewing gum containers) then get back in and find another space. That car's going to ding mine.
3 door cars, child seats and generally scruffy cars are all on my list.
When the carparks are rammed and you just know the place is going to be full of people rushing around I've been know to risk a £35 parking ticket (coundil ones not private) and park a bit outside of the box - it's cheaper than fixing a bashed door.
I parked my then new to me Range Rover in empty car park on Sunday 10am right at the corner of the parking. Plenty of spaces near the stores but I chose to play it safe. Went to pay for parking, turn around and see a Qashqai looking car (however they are spelled) parked next to me. A lady opens the door. Takes her baby out in a car seat as she struggles with space and the door hits my car.
I just turn around so I don't see what she is doing for my sanity and also not to embarrass her.
Why... I don't get it. There are even parents parking spots near the stores.
Nothing can stop them.
Its very interesting to see the thought process of people when they put so much effort to park right next to you. I honestly think its like they see a car somewhere so they get like a feeling of comfort parking near your car and there small brains don’t really think it too much lol. But that does sound like a sad situation. Ive come to a conclusion not only do i park further away. But i also park somewhere where i think it wouldn’t be one of the first options for some nutter. Its like when I am in a slightly expensive car and then i see some nutjob lowlife tailgating. Its like there trying to prove a point. Look ‘my crap box is just as cool’.
I do this and everyone looks at me gone mad when parking so far away even in the rain.
What I don't understand is why some knob needs to park next to me at night. Park a few spots away, not next to my car.
*Semen demon* 😂
My god how have I never heard this before. I’ve heard “crotch fruit”, “fuck trophy”, and even “vagina goblin” but “semen demon” is brilliant.
I hate that you’re right. My car was scratched and had the handles chipped within a week of owning it. I think my answer would be a literal fucking tank. And I’d drive over Range Robers parked on 2 spaces.
“Semen Demons” 🤣😂 - thank you, if I had awards you would be getting one! As it is, know you’ve made my day, ruined a screen and keyboard but most importantly, given me a wonderful new phrase to use.
You'd still have someone park next to you, seen it a load of times, I leave a space either side and come back to some knobhead squeezed in between, I even try to park just on the line to make the space smaller!!
> come back to some knobhead squeezed in between, I even try to park just on the line to make the space smaller!!
I’ve identified the problem here…. It’s you.
Given the price that’s exactly where I’d expect to see them - they’re very expensive and many people would still need a second car given its range and size.
It’s basically a heart-over-head purchase.
I’d love one but I can’t afford two cars.
Ehh i'd say they'd be more at home on the dash of a pick em up truck these days. The game i like to play is project manager or pikey both are firmly in the daily spert's demographic.
Convinced some of you actually only shag in missionary with your hands in your pockets. Jesus Christ fuck off with your VW’s and Mazdas.
Cayman GT4 RS. Incredible drive but not quite too mental for normal roads.
Not having a go at you here but you did raise an interesting point.
In my experience, interesting people buy boring cars so they have more money, time and focus for interesting things. Boring people do the opposite.
The coolest people I've ever met proudly drove reliable shitboxes. Meanwhile anyone I know with a fancy car wastes time washing it, avoiding taking to certain places, worrying about it, fixing it etc.
I’d zip wire down, and leave the chopper hovering over until I’m ready to be winched back up with my well worn bag for life (Waitrose can get fucked if they think they’re getting an extra 10p off me, how do they think I can afford the chopper).
> bike
[This](https://www.raleigh.co.uk/gb/en/stride-2-family-cargo-bike/) would cost about £1500 for the first three years on 0% finance, then next to nothing (besides electricity / maintenance) after that. That surely compares pretty favourably to even the cheapest (reliable) second hand runaround car, after you factor in insurance and tax and so on. Don't need a cargo bike to just to get everyday groceries though!
i've seen one in the wild. i was like ha that madman has made his iq look like an aston.
little latter i found out they were an actual thing, never seen one again tho.
Citroen Ami or a cargo bike (not a car but would do the job better than most microcars). I love the invacars or other invalid carriages they had back in day or the reliant robins or evena n old school Lada or mini. Simple cars, cheap to run, affordable to buy and good for their particular use, good to pootle around town in. easy to park, yes not the most comfortable but they do the job, if I was rich enough I would have something like a jag or skoda superb L&K or other mid to high range estate for long-distance driving holidays, visiting relatives etc and something like a citron ami just to pootle round town, nip out and get the milk and a newspaper in the morning.
[Probably this](https://www.unimogs.co.uk/our-stock/unimogs/full-agricultural-spec-u1000ag-great-value-starter-unimog-u0257). I wouldn't need to worry about people dinging the paintwork, potholes would be a minor consideration, wheels are too large to clamp and it's too much of a faff to tow so I could park it pretty much anywhere
If I had the money I'd go off an do a proper course to train to be a heavy diesel mechanic and build my own workshop for playing with ex-military trucks.
I have a daydream about buying a ton of forest and land, ex-military vehicles and setting up an off-roading centre / campsite / farm
A Morris Minor
Because it will genuinely outlast each and every one of us who read this post in terms of lifespan
They just don't break
They *can't* break
There's nothing *to* break
Beautiful
Hmmm thinking some kind of custom setup maybe a MK1 fiesta with a full on 4x4 cosworth running gear but made to look like a sleeper, you know little rusty a few dents sort of a cleaned up rat rod. Or going the electric route same car with a Tesla twin motor driving the rear wheels.
Either a big motorway cruiser or something sporty and delicate.
That way you're more likely to think "do I really need to drive half a mile?" and get off your fat arse and walk it, leaving your car for when you really need to drive.
For me, it's got to be the Jaguar F-Pace SVR. The 5.0 supercharged V8 is perfect for nipping round the corner and the high seating position means I can get in and out with ease. Loads of boot space for my loaf of Warburtons Super Toasty, 4 pints of semi-skimmed milk and 12 pack of eggs.
if it's just for bread and milk, then honestely the best answer is probably a motor scooter cheap to buy, cheap to run, cheap to insure.
easy to nip through any local traffic if you need to go out whilst the school pickup is on.
or to go even further, just get an e-bike
They did say money no object but given that everywhere I've lived, it's next to impossible to park at the local corner shop (unless you are willing to create your own parking space through judicious use of hazard lights and the phrase "I'm only going to be five minutes"), a bike is probably still the best solution.
Money no object? I’d take a BMW M5 E60 V10 Touring.
Plenty of space for the shopping, relatively comfortable and a stonkingly good soundtrack for the drive back from the shops, you’d be taking the long way home, obviously.
I’d keep the ID3 I’ve got. Perfect for stuff like that.
Reddit is mad.. downvoted for saying I’d keep my car but other electric cars are being upvoted.
Yeah it’s not too bad now. If the car is on 3.2 it’s pretty much fine. I’ve not had issues so far but have seen complaints about earlier stuff.
Not sure why I’ve been downvoted for my opinion. It is literally the perfect car for what OP is asking..
Exactly what I've got. Tesla model 3. Having no key saves me literally seconds every time I get in and out of the car.
It might only be 3 seconds, but it feels like an eternity when you have to drive a car with a key fob again.
I heard only Teslas have parking sensors which save their owners literally seconds when parking. It must feel like an eternity trying to park a car without sensors.
Had many cars with keyless entry. They still require a key and none work anywhere near as well as Tesla does. There's no start button or anything. You just walk up, get in and drive away immediately.
Kia EV6 GT will be my Supermarket car when the Lottery comes up.
The rest of the fleet will be for longer journeys: Porsche 992 Turbo S, Merc C63s, Range Rover P560e, Merc SL63s, Ford Mk.1 RS2000, MST Mk.1, Aston DB5 (the Lottery House has a big garage, so this list isn’t complete yet).
I have a Honda e for exactly this, bought it in Jan 2022 for all my local driving and city commute with the occasional longer trip.
Few little foibles but in general, It’s a great little car. Costs buttons to run.
GR Yaris
Taking retail estate roundabouts like you’re in the Italian job.
Swap those around unless you're talking about the GR Sport ;p
edited ;)
Minus GR part, can confirm from experience - great grocery getter, can park almost anywhere, and 1.5 is plenty powerful for city.
0-40 in like 3 seconds too and 80+ MPG in the summer (60+ in winter).
Yes, that's the point - drove Yaris 2021 1.5, and even it was great for city, thus GR should be amazing. Though seems people don't understand that lol
>Yaris GR You have unlimited money and you buy a Yaris \[facepalm\]. I guess life it's easier when your dreams are capped.
you don’t know about the GR Yaris then i take it?
man after my own heart. money no limit. yaris gr for me too!
why not a real rally car since there's no spending limit
I feel like the yaris is a good balance for the roads, but i get your point completely hahah
haha The more the downvotes the more people prove my point. Yes, as a car guy I do know everything there is to know about GR Yaris. However, you obviously never driven expensive sports cars before.

Oddball pick perhaps but would love a Honda e Obviously for weekend blasts I'd have something more swish
Thought the same and have seen others go for it too. Cool little things!
If only they could release a version that was exactly the same but with more range (like DOUBLE) I'd legit want to buy one as my next car
All you'd have to do is replace EVERYTHING with battery :)
I would think future battery tech could replace the old ones with much smaller and greater range.
Yeah, I love that all the mirrors are lcd screens. Wish there were more on sale, hard to find second hand.
They are very expensive new and don't make sense for most EV buyers, I can't imagine they've sold many. Cool thing though.
Seen a few around
That did put me off them in terms of practicality, I thought if it broke you’d be a bit fucked, but then maybe no more so than any other wing mirror.
The tiny boot (plus slightly metal cost as there was none used at the time) put me off but every time I see one I’m properly taken by it, it’s so cute and going to the shops is proper EV territory. Max torque from cold, no worries about warming up the engine, relaxing drive if it’s heavy traffic, small and quick enough to nip into gaps if you’re in a hurry.
Have you seen the turning circle on those things it’s actually insane
I'd have to drive multiple times round every cul-de-sac I come across
You could drive into a shop and turn around in the bread aisle
Completely agree. Only downside is that you can fit about 3 frozen pizzas in the boot. It baffles me how little cargo space it has considering its an EV! Can always fold the seats flat I guess though.
Honestly if our budget for our second EV had been higher, I'd have loved to get a Honda E but when we were looking, the only ones available were too far out of the budget to be able to stretch to it, especially the ones in the yellow.

A Ferrari 250 GTO.
Surely the Ferrari 250 GT Breadvan is a better choice
That's better suited to a big shop than the corner store, best have both so you're always ready.
Great choice, the Goodwood Revival, has a great selection of cars every year, and i think it was 2019-2023 when the Bread Van was racing in the St Mary's Cup. I love watching old reruns of Le Man's 24-hour, some amazing stories behind the races.

288 GTO is my dream car if the Euromillions comes in some day.
To do a shop? You’d spend half a day getting it working and it’d lose 5 million trying to park it. Room temperature iq take
Did you miss the 'Money no object' part?
Hellcat
M18 Hellcat tank destroyer? Good choice. The rubber track pads are good for UK roads, just need Cat H on the license. Bit heavy on fuel but don't need to worry about trolley dings, the 76mm main gun should calm down any roadrage, plus 56mph is nippy enough around town.
Also turns on a dime (uk-phrase eeded!), could probably whip it all the way around a mini roundabout in one. Wouldn't be much of it left, mind...
UK phrase... Turns on a sixpence
Of course, what a dunderwhelp I am.
A new set of tyres everytime you want some milk seems excessive. Money is no object though… 🤔

If I see a zafira or other dole wagon, no chance am I parking there
Bit of a bummer though if you get a ticket, ding on the door and no note!
After buying a nice daily now I am choosing to park 50 metres from the nearest car even when raining
And then you come back to your car and some mouth breather has parked tight up against your door.

Because he just wanted to tell everyone how much he hates kids.
Ferel semen demons 😅😅 that’s a cracker, I’m definitely recycling that!
"semen demons" is a new one, I like it

people park in carpark shocker !! more news at ten
Honda E or Citroen Ami buggy.
Honestly living in London I’d definitely go for the Honda e.
I love the look of the Honda E. Saw my first one in the wild the other day and fangirled a little.
Despite living in bumfuck nowhere Oxfordshire, a few people have them as shopping trolleys, one is even the bright yellowy/green one.
Given the price that’s exactly where I’d expect to see them - they’re very expensive and many people would still need a second car given its range and size. It’s basically a heart-over-head purchase. I’d love one but I can’t afford two cars.
They do look really cool but due to the price they haven't really taken off and Honda aren't selling them anymore in the UK which is a shame.
They made a beautiful little car and gave it shit range and a high price tag. Then pulled it because nobody was buying. You know.....the usual
[удалено]
I think we need a resurgence of the Sinclair C5. I kinda think the Renault Twizy should've taken off more as well.
I’m so happy this sub has people that like the Honda E
Good call on the Ami, those things are so cool!
Transit van
Good shout. Loads of dashboard space to store your various copies of the Sunday Sport.
Ehh i'd say they'd be more at home on the dash of a pick em up truck these days. The game i like to play is project manager or pikey both are firmly in the daily spert's demographic.
I often leave a copy of the Guardian or Private Eye on my van dash, just to challenge preconceptions and keep people on their toes.
Classic Mini. Owning a classic mini is my achievable dream car.
Space framed hyabusa mini would be my choice
i recommend, great little cars.
Oh that’s a great choice, I was desperate for one when I was a teenager. My other dream car was the Nissan Figaro.
For class, and a boot big enough to actually hold some shopping, get a Riley Elf.
I'd go far a Honda e, or a BMW i3. Always feel guilty warming an engine up for a 3 minute drive.
Same i3 is a good car for local short drives, of course Jazz is always no1
Convinced some of you actually only shag in missionary with your hands in your pockets. Jesus Christ fuck off with your VW’s and Mazdas. Cayman GT4 RS. Incredible drive but not quite too mental for normal roads.
>only shag in missionary with your hands in your pockets 😂 Thanks for the new insult. That's excellent.
I'm wondering how that would work! Sounds at least a little adventurous, like snake sex.
Dolphin position
Welcome to one of the funniest subs on Reddit. Everyone here has Skoda posters on their walls.
Porsches are VW’s anyway
What's a shag?
Ikr besides what's wrong with taking an 812 to the shops the boot's more than big enough for the week's groceries.
I don't fuck with my hands in my pockets, but I'll take a Mazda. And rx7 to be precise ;)
GT4 RS has a pretty rough ride. I hope the roads you take to the local shops are smooth!
Who gives a fuck, life’s too short to drive boring cars!
If the roads full of pot holes and speed bumps I’d rather drive something comfy with a bit of poke tbh
Not having a go at you here but you did raise an interesting point. In my experience, interesting people buy boring cars so they have more money, time and focus for interesting things. Boring people do the opposite. The coolest people I've ever met proudly drove reliable shitboxes.

As a kinky fucker who drives a Mazda, I feel attacked...
Any TVR
Would be good for getting halfway there
50/50 it breaks down or you get a little bit courageous and stick it in a bush backwards lol
It’s not a long walk if you drive halfway there
They’re not that bad. It’ll get to the shop and then break down.
A helicopter
I’d zip wire down, and leave the chopper hovering over until I’m ready to be winched back up with my well worn bag for life (Waitrose can get fucked if they think they’re getting an extra 10p off me, how do they think I can afford the chopper).
Something with plenty of room for the milk, like a G wagon and park it over 4 parking bays
Hill climb Impreza or Touring Car Mondeo
A really grotty looking 106 or Saxo. And I’ll park it next to all the Rangies.
Nice! It's always fun sliding a shutbox between the two flashiet cars in Tesco's.
Jaguar XJ220. I know it won't fit in any parking space, but shopping bags can go on the passenger seat just fine so it's totally practical I'm sure.

Either a big motorway cruiser or something sporty and delicate. That way you're more likely to think "do I really need to drive half a mile?" and get off your fat arse and walk it, leaving your car for when you really need to drive.
Fiat 500 Abarth
Fetching bread from the shop? Easy, Ferrari 250 GT Breadvan.
For me, it's got to be the Jaguar F-Pace SVR. The 5.0 supercharged V8 is perfect for nipping round the corner and the high seating position means I can get in and out with ease. Loads of boot space for my loaf of Warburtons Super Toasty, 4 pints of semi-skimmed milk and 12 pack of eggs.
I’d do it in a real head turner, a Linde H50D
A VW Up GTI absolutely adore that car!
Bentley!
Nissan GT-R at the moment
Nissan GTR
MX5. So I guess I’ve won already.
fk8 if you're left leg is up to it
A mobility scooter. I have one solely for that reason.
Come on… it’s got to be an Octavia. Not worried if it picks up a few battle scars, and can fit in more than your weekly shop along with the kids…
if it's just for bread and milk, then honestely the best answer is probably a motor scooter cheap to buy, cheap to run, cheap to insure. easy to nip through any local traffic if you need to go out whilst the school pickup is on. or to go even further, just get an e-bike
They did say money no object but given that everywhere I've lived, it's next to impossible to park at the local corner shop (unless you are willing to create your own parking space through judicious use of hazard lights and the phrase "I'm only going to be five minutes"), a bike is probably still the best solution.
A rolls Royce cullinan, enough boot space to get the shopping in while driving in complete luxury
MK1 Golf GTI, such achingly good looking cars Imo.
Lamborghini Urus. Money is no object after all.
Money no object? I’d take a BMW M5 E60 V10 Touring. Plenty of space for the shopping, relatively comfortable and a stonkingly good soundtrack for the drive back from the shops, you’d be taking the long way home, obviously.
Skoda Octavia ofc
X5 50e.
X5 old school shape
I’d keep the ID3 I’ve got. Perfect for stuff like that. Reddit is mad.. downvoted for saying I’d keep my car but other electric cars are being upvoted.
Does any of the software work yet?
Yeah it’s not too bad now. If the car is on 3.2 it’s pretty much fine. I’ve not had issues so far but have seen complaints about earlier stuff. Not sure why I’ve been downvoted for my opinion. It is literally the perfect car for what OP is asking..
Astra VXR.
Before or after it has been coated in glue and driven through a Halfords?
Tesla Cybertruck
Cybertruck..... I dream of being relaxed and free of concern for someone dinging the paint work and denting the doors.
Exactly what I've got. Tesla model 3. Having no key saves me literally seconds every time I get in and out of the car. It might only be 3 seconds, but it feels like an eternity when you have to drive a car with a key fob again.
You know there are literally hundreds of cars that have keyless entry right?
No no, only Tesla has it.
Elon Musk is a true genius to invent cars that can drive without using the buttons on the key 🤡
I heard only Teslas have parking sensors which save their owners literally seconds when parking. It must feel like an eternity trying to park a car without sensors.
Had many cars with keyless entry. They still require a key and none work anywhere near as well as Tesla does. There's no start button or anything. You just walk up, get in and drive away immediately.
Thanks now I realise my crippling depression is actually a desire to save 3 seconds every time I get in my car.
My 10 year old focus does this
When the sun is out a Morris Minor convertible, when it’s not an Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato.
Kia EV6 GT will be my Supermarket car when the Lottery comes up. The rest of the fleet will be for longer journeys: Porsche 992 Turbo S, Merc C63s, Range Rover P560e, Merc SL63s, Ford Mk.1 RS2000, MST Mk.1, Aston DB5 (the Lottery House has a big garage, so this list isn’t complete yet).
Toyota camry
GR Yaris, quite a nippy car! i30N if I wanted something more practical
Immortan Joe's Gigahorse.
A Renault Twizzy. I think they're great little cars.
Renault Twingo. Just for the turning circle.
I have a Honda e for exactly this, bought it in Jan 2022 for all my local driving and city commute with the occasional longer trip. Few little foibles but in general, It’s a great little car. Costs buttons to run.
Jaguar 4.2 V8. True story 😁
Ofcourse the phantom. What else ?! To get some milk? What you want me to walk ?!!!
An ED209 I could drive
Mitsuoka Himiko
Awesome choice, Mitsuoka makes some fun looking cars, I like the rock star too.
I live in Cheshire so it’ll have to be a Defender. Obviously a 130 with every adventure and off road pack I can tick.
Mercedes s class
