When work let borrow a car its this...
My daily
Ehehe usualy during the weekends we go for a ride to the countryside and we do more than 200kms without touching the roads , here in Portugal is plenty of places to ride motorbikes, ATVs, 4x4. I know in Ingland it´s a little bit difficult to find a place where you can ride your 4x4 because most of places are private, it´s what i ve been told when i went to a meeting near Brighton in Uk. 4x4 it´s great fun, but ridding the r5 it´s even better
back to using this for the forseeable future
60+mpg and its still a renault turbo
Im using the Cav Turbo!
I roll a pre facelift accord type r, good all round car act, very underrated tho I do feel like most people look at it and think I've crashed through a halfords window
New poster! (less than 10 posts)
here's mine...
not so bad... not so bad... mmmm.... really really bad to be honest... haha..
Cheers mate, love them too
This is mine.
Genuinely use it every day. 43+mpg and £211 insurance. Very slow though!!!!
I can't decide whether to put a 1.3 TS engine in, and swallow the worse MPG
Soon to acquire some Gordini torsion bars and Koni dampers
I would love a modern car sometimes though..... something that doesn't need me to fiddle with a choke in the morning.
This is my daily runner to stop me being a Bus ****er.
Daily , Renault 9 F7R
my sister used to have a cinqucento sporting, brilliant little car
between my works van and the 5 this is my daily: looks the business but they are actually quite reasonable to buy. (just not the upkeep!)
probably why the 5 has only been out 3 times this year to be honist!
my mrs drives my other car which is a 1995 Abarth Punto GT. ....4 cars 2 people, bit silly really!
and just to add the 5 is kept nice and dry the Porsche braves the elements.

yeah cayman S 3.2. goes quite well but better for posing! its out of action at the moment as i got a puncture last week, £290 for a new rear tyre so looking at part worns on ebay!
not good after a £1000 service and mot bill the month before.
Its funny, and hard to explain both the 5 and the porsche get a lot of attention but in a different way.
Ahh ok lol it just looks exactly the same as the one we have here.
Thanks Adscan and Jesus. It has only done 52,000 miles from new.
Yeah, not many around, but when they do come up for sale, they are so cheap.
For whatever reason they are pretty worthless to most - so many must have just been crushed.
I think it is a handsome car, although it is gold .... better when lowered a touch.
Hope this works. The last one had a fit Edit it works

My daily, although its not the most practical one!
Not the best picture but never planned to take one it is of course my sleeper
Currently stock other than pulling all the crap off the engine not required, full service and some software to make it at least move - 220bhp 4wd tow barge, de spec'd brakes and arb etc make for interesting angles
Based on the Mk4 R32 platform so lots of cheap upgrades and the new tfsi lump fits nice and easy so always the option to go 375bhp for not so much money - got my eye out for the R32 fancy seats which fit straight in
Small enough to not cost the earth to run and big enough for family wagon and towing cars
As per all VAG cars its not a true 4wd and have to drive it in a different way to get the most from it
Oh and when I drive nice (about once a week it will do an easy mid 30mpg return) the other 6 days are 20-27 lol
DG
