It's been a long wait since I placed the order back in May but I got the call early last week to say my Toyota iQ had arrived, and I picked it up on Thursday evening. So far it's been brilliant and even better than I had hoped for.

The 998cc three pot is really impressive, managing to be pokey around town as well as good enough to cruise at 80+ on the motorway. The interior is well put together but some of the plastics are a bit of a let down and can get marked quite easily, and the lack of hidden storage space is a bit of an issue if you need to leave anything in the car. But for my needs it's going to be perfect and I'm really enjoying driving it.

That's a 32" telly, in the back of an iQ. Can't argue with that for versatility from a city car! I'm hoping to get some better shots of both cars together soon since I think they make quite a good pair, so check back in a few weeks...
