RedM Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I originally thought that the Supra would be my only car, but as the time approaches actually buying one, I've been thinking about having a second car. Mainly it'd be for really crap weather days or for going to 'dodgy' areas but seeing as how petrol isn't getting any cheaper it might be an idea not to use the Supra every day. Anyways, what do you drive as a second car? I've been thinking along the lines of a low insurance group diesel with a tiny engine but am open to suggestions. Cheers.

JustGav Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I've got the panzer (520i e42 bmw), might be slow, but it gets there... and a 106 rallye which is usually pretty quick, but I've not driven it in two years... it is being rebuilt...

michael Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I have a '00 Punto 1.2 ELX 16v and the use of the works pool car (Avensis) - I couldn't recommend either but the Punto cruises at 90 while returning 40mpg so it's OK I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 You need to brush up on your parking skills! 1 on the grass, 1 on the road and half on the drive! It gets tricky.
