Bob Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I did have a 1989 Mazda 323 GLX estate with colour-coded brown velour interior (known as the Nazda, as half of the badge - well, half of everything really - had fallen off). Sadly that passed away recently, and has been donated to a work colleague to shuffle off this mortal coil in style, as a banger racer Just driven back in my old dear's M-reg Fiat Punto. 1242cc's of Italian rustiness, and rather disfigured by various dents (courtesy of mummy-dearest reversing into lamp-posts and such like). Oh, and it's completely free, bar the £150 to get it through the MOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I drive my other half's FreeLander more than my own cars but my own car is my blue '00 Supe which I mostly drive. I also have a '93 Auto TT Supe and a FireBlade both of which I rarely use. My dole money barely covers my insurance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

how_supra Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 1994 Renault clio campus, 1.2..........which has keep fit windows and no power steering........but it does 325 miles to £25 worth of petrol, so when you're driving 70miles a day its absolutely brilliant.

Millsy Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Supras my runaround at the moment, doing a fair amount of motorway mileage so it's quite a comfy choice. But expensive on fuel! Want to keep Supra nice so looking for a runaround. Have a Mk2 Golf GTI too which was going to be my runaround, but fitted a 20v turbo engine, big bumpers, BBS, Quaiffe, Brembos etc and it's not only ridiculously low it's an absolute animal so going to keep that on standby too. If I wasn't paranoid about leaving these cars places and people vandalising them or nicking them then I'd use the two all the time. Thinking a cheap Escort van may be the way forward.

Guest Bainesy36 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 A '96 Hyundai Lantra 1.8CD estate, petrol! Classy, but ideal for the dog and runs to the skip. Also has a tow bar and cost me £695 18 months ago with 100k on it. Now showing approx' 116k and flew through it's last MOT. Nige. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
