The fact that it looks more like a crossover than some of its contemporaries do, meanwhile, can do it no harm with market tastes being as they are.Īdmittedly, its 66bhp 1.0-litre engine does feel a bit weedy at times, but the larger 1.2-litre four-pot is a far more willing workhorse and at the top of the engine range, meanwhile, the car’s 1.0-litre turbocharged three-pot engine is a trump card that not even the related Hyundai can play. Save money with new i10 deals from What Car?Ī quirky contender in this rather congested segment, the Ignis is a zesty little car blessed with charm, value, space, versatility and fuel-efficiency. It might not have the star appeal of the VW Up GTI models behind it, but as a well-rounded, sensible, well-equipped city car it takes pride of place at the top of the class. It rides absorbently if a little noisily and firmly on range-topping 16in wheels, but is surprisingly well-equipped (not least with active safety kit) and its 82bhp atmospheric four-cylinder engine (now something of a rarity in cars of this size) lends it decent drivability and useful real-world performance. Interior quality and general desirability have increased significantly, as has practicality (this is now one of the most accommodating cars in its class) while its sharp new exterior lends it an additional dollop of style appeal.

Maybe one of the worst incidents was the driver of a Porsche who decided to haul a hot tub on a wooden dolly. Or there was the time a driver filled a car with so many beer cans, they couldn't see out the rear window. A few years ago, a Mississauga motorist was charged after they were spotted hauling extra-long slats of wood, which were sticking out the window.

Ian Michel told Global News police stopped the vehicle at Mayfield Road, just east of Highway 410, in Caledon around 7:15 a.m.

"Driver charged after relying on passengers to hold down mattress by hand with a bed sheet." you still might not want to use it," the OPP tweeted.

Yet one Brampton driver decided the best way transport a bed was to wrap a sheet around it and get some friends to hold on to the ends of said sheet from within the car while it moved.
A sheet isn't a good way to secure a mattress to a roof, no matter how high the thread count.
