A V-reg 1500HL gets a surprising amount of airtime in this BBC programme -

I caught up on it last night and was particularly pleased that Sara Cox seemed to like the Dolomite even if the kids preferred the Viva. Tell you what though come the summer I'd rather be in a Dolomite with it's luxury bri-nylon seats than a Vauxhall with vinyl. Brings back memories of Mother's Chevette when I was a kid, didn't know seats could get so hot.
