Taken shortly after finding that Avis decided that this was the only thing available when I needed to rent an estate at short notice last Christmas.

Im sorry.
So very very sorry.
Still at least you arnt looking proud of it!!!
If you think the picture was slow, try driving the vehicle.
On second thoughts, don't. Don't ever, ever, ever, never bloody ever go near one of those things. Trust me. I still shudder at the memory of trying to turn on the map light in the dark, failing, then driving 20 miles across Wales before realising I'd managed to retract the wing mirrors instead. The god-awful exterior styling is only matched by the atrocious interior arrangement of practically very control and fitting, unfeasibly complicated seating and fiendishly uncomfortable driving position. I spent the whole weekend keeping the Avis documentation clearly displayed in the window to make it perfectly clear I was driving the damned thing under protest.

When forced to travel in a Multipla, try waving with unatural enthusiasm at other Multipla drivers, apart from helping you aleviate the distress of actually being in a Multipla, the look of utter confusion and bewilderment on the faces of people who really did part with cash for one of these terrible monstrosities is pricesless.
They got a bit worried when we did it at traffic lights though, you can see them locking the doors and desperatly looking straight ahead....
....Ok, just me then.

Not necesarily motoring... but,
Pedestrians who walk out into road expecting you to let them cross, or standing right on the edge of the kerb, waiting to cross. Oh and theres those teenagers who slow down to snail pace when crossing, just because they think its cool to wind you up, by going slow.
