Cars

Post

I was just wondering what cars are your daily drive?
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

And one of these (which needs mending right now)

Which is why I have the Nissan - which never needs mending and hardly uses any fuel........

Also, a Landrover Defender 90

Any bikers?? - I have GSXR750WX, no pics to hand........

I have a little 1993 Ford Fiesta 5dr hatchback, 1118cc inline 4cyl. engine.

HOWEVER...it does 130MPH, and will do 0-60 in roughly 8-9secs.

Which, for a 1.1l isnt really too bad. :lol:

A Clio and a Fiesta. Just little cars until I have paid off my debts. Then it's onto converting one of then for rallying hopefully.
I did once have a Volvo 360 GLS. Immense fun on roundabouts with the rear wheel drive.

Just finished fixing my Citroen AX 1100cc.

I'm not old enough to drive yet but its great fun for the garden, and local car club autotesting.

I used to have a 1.4 Rover Metro, but a (ex :evil: ) mate burned the clutch out single handed :cry:

Incidently, he also managed to crash the AX into a pile of breeze blocks :(

P.S. zjeeraar, is that the diesel.
If its petrol its likely to be almost identical to mine, except the size.

I drive my mom's Lexus RX330 right now (she doesn't want to put that many miles on it; it's a 2005). Once I get a job, I'll *hopefully* get an E46 M3.

Manchild, can I make a guess? You drive a Toyota, but secretly hope that one day Michael Schumacher will hug you and give you the keys to your own Ferrari?

Sorry, I couldn't resist!
