I've not had a car for the last 2 years, I just cycle everywhere, but that's not always easy when you want to go out taking pictures, I have to carry the camera, lens and tripod (the tripod is lightweight, which is good to carry, but not steady when taking shots)
So the other day I was passing the local garage and spotted a nice Toyota aygo, and just at the right price, so went in, took it for a little test drive, and now its mine.
Not the best picture as it was raining when I got it home.

Congrats! That's a cute little bugger--not one that is sold here in the US though.

My D100 grip had both batteries in the grip. Since then, all my grips have held one battery. I normally charge the grip battery often enough that I don't need to charge the battery in the camera very often. Even so, it's no big deal to remove the grip and access the battery in the body.
It just makes more sense. When I was comparing the 5500 and the 7100, it makes sense to have both batteries in the grip so you can leave the grip on. But alas, tradeoffs for other features
Nice,just a bit expensive for a camera bag
I haven't run the numbers yet, but I reckon the usable space per dollar is roughly the same or better than a shoulder bag or backpack.

I was thinking that myself
but it will come in handy to drive to work in this lovely British weather we have, as you know it can be very unpredictable at times.I was thinking that myself
Well its not been unpredictable lately
its just rain and more rainNo issues with it here. It isn't like the grip is difficult to remove/replace.
I love the grip when I have my longer glass on, it balances the gear better. Also, the vertical position shutter button is handy as well.
