I drive different cars depending on my mood.

Commodore - for work
Subaru - when I want to be a lead foot, turbo works well
Laser- old piece of crap car only driven to the shops should sell it but don't want to put the km's (or dents) in the bug

Other car?

Perhaps for people like me there should be an "I don't have another car" option.

Gibbo ·

57 Oval, 69 Squareback, and the ever reliable toyota camry circa 1986.

yeah point taken. I dont have an other car either but i do end up driving my wifes '91 Volvo 940 around a bit. It is our kid mover and I have to admit it does its job really well.

we have a suzuki swift. it's almost 10 years old, has a horrible peely paint and a worn interior. The radio doesn't work on FM anymore, but if they still made them new I buy another one right now. It's done over 200 thousand kms and is still going strong. 😉

hehe
I've got the euro version of a swift: 205 Gti
Still working on it though, goddammitt

zac_smits ·

91 mazda..that's done over 250,000kms (and survived me learning to drive 😀)

hehe mscabrio, i have exactly the same opinion of the laser i drive. one of teh most boring things on the road - mundane handling, mundane performance, upsettingly reliable, and so damn many of them around.

twoguns ·

stupid poll, dont lists volkswagen as your other car. WTF is going on there. why would i list 'other german'... thats almost offensive, as if to say its a irrelevant choice.....:duh

my other ride is my beach buggy, or my ghia, or my beetle... all equal in my eyes. the get away fun factor is the triumph sprint.

theverybigtallman ·

i come under the 'no other car' list. drive mum's excel (gutless, but cheap) or dad's patrol (body roll like a boat, but kills everything else off road). i may get another beetle one of these days - one i can drive on the road

I had one. I loved it. Series 3. I fixed it endlessly though.:alien

I noticed Ferrari, Maserati, Bentley and Rolls Royce aren't there, to name a few . Lancia, Alfa, etc....😎

BTW, Do you know the least used phrase in the English language? " Is that the banjo player's Maserati parked outside?"
