I'm Richard Porter. I'm Johnny Smith. And this is on the other side of things, the Smith and Sniff

spin-off in which we answer your questions. Before we get going with listeners questions, a small

piece of housekeeping, first of all, if you have a question for us, it's hello at smith and sniff.com.

We said a few weeks ago, if you have a question, mark your subject line. Start it with

Otisot and then you put something else if you want to afterwards, if you've got a question.

We've now started getting lots of emails from people who are just putting Otisot in the

subject line but don't have a question. What? They just have

an email they want to send us and it's getting really confusing. So if you have a question that you

want to be answered on this show, put Ottersot at the start of the subject line. If you're just

sending us an email about something else, we do read all the emails, but don't put Otisot

because it's throwing our really shaky filing system out of whack when we try and find some questions.

So it's a tight ship that we run here, folks.

And you know it.

It's one of those canal boats that sits a bit worryingly low at one end is what this is.

Anyway, just if you don't mind, that would help us enormously to try and manage things.

Anyway, let's start with a question from a listener called Mark, who says, I have found myself in a position of great fortune.

I've come into some money, and I'm looking at getting a second car to go alongside my electric

family car. The car will mainly be a nice weather vehicle and to be honest a commute every now and

again. I'm not in any rush and will quite happily wait for the right car. So far I've rounded it to

two, a Peugeot-106 rally and a Mark I 1 rot-free MX5. The desired criterion are manual gears,

small, lightweight, not too many miles, good service history and a maximum budget of £16,000.

That's a good budget. You have any other good ideas that I can add to the list or any surprises I may not have thought of.
