Y'know, they say that Brits and Americans are separated by a common language...
from http://peevish.co.uk/slang/:Handbag: Noun. Style of 'house' music which has a more poppy and accessible quality, often 'crowd-pleasing'. [1990s]
I assume you're suggesting it'd make me look a tad light in the loafers?
Feh... It's still as close as I can come to getting what I want out of a recent production car. Lightweight, nimble, rear-drive, and with an open roof of some sort. It's a good 500 pounds lighter than an MR2, and cheaper to insure.
Also very comfortable... Fits me like a glove, the pedals, wheel and gearshift are all right where they should be.
