    Would an absolute back to basics car sell well today?

    I was going to mention the discontinued variants, and I forgot they did that to the Aygo. The car market has become so depressing. Hatchbacks and estates are dying out because everyone wants a jacked up pretend SUV They were crap as well though, thats part of the issue. There's simple cars...
