Default What car do you drive?

After seeing transformers which is by the way an amazing film , I feel like getting a car. Even though it's totally impracticable for central London.


To those of you who do have cars, what car is it? What's your dream car? and share with us some pics!

I am thinking of getting one of these (double cab) for work as for tax reasons they are classed as a van and can stick through the business

Are they any good?

I bought my wife a brand new 1986 Chevrolet Suburban in 1985. As 20 series, 3/4 ton with 6 bolt wheels, mainly for trailer towing. About 180,000 mile later, ti's still with us, but not driven daily, although my grandson is about a year away from driving and he and I are working on it a bit. As much to get him used to the feel of a wrench in his hands as anything.

Myself, I bought a new 1998 Chevrolet Suburban with 4 wheel drive, which we took to the beach on the Outer Banks of North Carolina about every other weekend. It's really cool to be able to back up to the ocean, open the doors and set up a picnic.

That suburban got totalled a couple of years ago when a tree came down across it during a hurricane. I'd just put 4 brand new tires on it and had $ 300 worth of work done on it the day before! I did swap the tires before the wrecker towed it away.

I went right out an bought a used 1998 Suburban with the insurance money. I just couldn't aske for anything any better. Suits all of our needs and still has a bit of style. Just had it to the beach yesterday, as a matter of fact. My grandson got off on being able to get out on the sand in 4 wheel drive and play with it. I hope I'm not creating a monster.

My wife now drives a 2000 VW Bug. She's wanted a yellow bug forever, so now she has one. We like to keep them forever, so if asked this 5 years from now I will probably answer with the same. I bought that first Suburban, figuring on maybe 8 years, but it still cranks right up after 20.

I haven't got any pics of my car but can describe it, about 36'' long with size 13's on the floor. Ok so thats my legs but they do me well.

I don't drive, don't even have a licence and very rarely think that life would be better if I did. As for driving in central London, I have done it as a passanger a few times, never again simply not worth it. Get a cab for the few times you can't use public transport.

P.S My 888th post, lucky Chinese post.
