The First

Come on then folks, I'll be first. I drive a Volvo V70! Yep, I'm sorry, I'm one of them. It's the older D5 version with 165 bhp, I think. The new one has 185, or something.

I have also have the misfortune to have a wife who loves her 1.6 Ford Fusion. It's horrible.

Sorry for that. Fusion is really ugly.
But your volvo is like a dream for me. :?

I'd never heard of, so I googled it. Yuck! It's not really ugly or anything, just unbelievably lacklustre and uninspiring.

I have a Landrover Discovery 1, the real old deal. A black one, with all the bad habbits these old farts have :lol:

The GF, she has a BMW 520D Touring, from 2004. A nice, comfourtabel and roomy car with loads of options.
Econmic to. For a 1.7ton weighing car, a consumption of 6,7L/100km isn't bad.

That's it, nothing fancy like a Lotus orso :wink:

Grtz, Philip!

:D
But now it's started. ..... I have a Mazda 323 1.5 sedan. Not too exiting or fast but keeps me dry when it rains and warmish in the winter. If I won the lottery, I'd get an Aston Martin. Any one, I don't really care.

So it's a Ford then.

And MY Mazda 323 is already 14 years old and still going strong whenever I need it (about four times a year). Gets me from A to B when I need it to. So it's a Mazda then.

My wife is very disappointed about the reaction to her car, she loves it. I'd tell her how poor her taste is, but the fact she married me makes it obvious. I'm short stumpy ugly and under-powered too!

Peugeot 307 SW 1.6l diesel :oops: and Skoda Felicia :oops: :oops:

My excuse is of course that I spend my money on the bikes...and that my brother in law is a Peugeot dealer :) The, Skoda :?: My wifes :lol:

Would buy a BMW M3 if I had the money. Know some on the board have Lotuses, never tried one but looks like fun :!:

Sorry, Rob, I know you're doing your best, but there are better places for porn than here. Or so they say anyway :lol:

Dodge Grand Caravan w/3.8 liter petrol V6 - yeah, it's a cliche, but it does damn near everything and will pull a 3,500lb load.

Smart fortwo - wanted one for years and got one of the first when they were officially imported. There was about a 12 month waiting list for them over here.

I tend to go for practicality in cars and play with my bikes.
