What’s everyone driving these days ??

[Lance]

A 2001 Toyota Corolla most of the time. I don't take my 1989 Ford Orion 1.6i Ghia out as much as I should, and I feel bad about that; it's a great car

Proper contractor cars.

Bicycle. That's recession/pandemic/general situation cock-up. Anyone got a spare puncture repair kit?

You need to go tubeless

BMW 530D M Sport Estate - soon to be swapped for a Volvo XC90

Uhhhm....a 2005 Vauxhall Astra.

I had a nice Jag S Type then a few years ago I used it for all of about 2000 miles in 10 months so let it go, got a new car for the Mrs and had her old one (The aforementioned Astra).

I keep meaning to find something else, but it's actually pretty handy having a crap run around. Park it anywhere, fill it with anything, if it breaks I'll throw it away. I have motorbikes for going fast, and I just take people flying when I want to show off

Oh, and we do still have our '68 Beetle

2011 VW T5 Transporter part converted to camper but halted that as couldn't get wifey into it any more

2015 VW Caddy wheelchair accessible vehicle

Love the T5 but don't get to use it as much as I would like now, so mostly drive the Caddy. The smaller van is an easier drive, but there is just something fun about driving a vehicle where almost every other driver in the same vehicle on the road waves to you; brings a bit of sunshine to the day

Ditched big expensive fast cars for a nearly new Mazda CX-3 since giving up chasing the contracts. Not quick, not big, but fun to drive and looks pretty. And very well equipped.

When we get bored, there's always the 7 meter motorhome to play with...

One of my biggest regrets is selling my '68 VW Campervan - had so so much fun in that thing

Actually still driving the BMW F80 but only done 8000km this year. Was looking at the G80 to replace it but it is one ugly ****er...

Seen the price of them now? Mid £20ks for a healthy bay window, £40k for a Splitty (and I could have had a fully restored one for £2500... )
