Daily Driver: Ford XLS Ute

Year: 2000

Color: Navy

Best Features: You can chuck sh1t in the back. Work pays for the fuel.

Worst Features: Where to start?? Firstly I guess - its a Ford! Others include lack of passengers (my other car is a 2 seater as well currently), guzzles fuel - I know I said I dont have to pay but I have to fill it with 80L on a regular basis which anoys me!, damn dodgy to drive in the wet (but fun!)

Would I drive it again by choice: No

What Would I Drive Again if by Choice: If I had to still have the tray for work Id like either a Nissan Nivara or Holden Rodeo both 4x4 Dual Cab. Or if I could make it a wagon an Audi Allroad Quattro 2.7T would do just fine!

CAR: 1975 Mitso Galant coupe.

FEATURES: 1600 Engine, wheels, working Air con and stereo.

WHY? It cost me $300!

FUTURE PLANS: When the skyline is finished it will get painted and a 2.6 engine swap, with quad throttle EFI.

Car : 1985 Mitsubishi Colt 45

Colour: White, with Colt 45 Racing Stickers, Blue Racing Interior and racing seat cover, along with racing gearknob and pedals

Best Feature: use it only for taking dogs to the vet, needing to park anywhere i want, 4speed manual, front wheel drive (meaning i cant break something from wanting to go farm and do burnouts)

Worst Feature: its a mitsubishi colt

Performance: can do burnouts in 1st when dry, 1st and second when wet

Would I drive it again by choice: no

What i would prefer as a daily driver: Suzuki Carry Van 1983 :P

The Mighty Daewoo Matiz - Van Version (Work car)

Best features - Cup holder, tight parking is a breeze and I dont pay a cent on anything which means more $ for mods.

Worst feature - It's a Daewoo, It's a Matiz, It's a Daewoo Matiz, Only 3 cyl 725cc, oh did I menttion it's a Daewoo Matiz?

Who ever said chicks dig small cars should be shot and so should my boss for buying them! :D

As well as the Civic I forgot to admit to the Bike.

Motorcycle : Suzuki GSX550EF

Best Feature: The freedom and fun of two wheels...

Worst Feature: Volvo drivers. (if you ride, you know what I mean)

Performance: Enough to get into and out of trouble.

Would I ride it again by choice: No, If I get another bike after this one it will be a "Sunday ride only" Ducati. Commuting is just too bl00dy dangerous. ( DAMN, I'm getting old! )

What would I prefer as a daily driver: Still something like a 3 series Beemer.

Like Factor: (the glass is half full ): 6/10

Up untill two months ago I had a Range Rover as my daily driver.

Color: Red

Year: 1993

Best feature: I could drive over anything or anyone !!

Worst feature: lots and lots of fuel, break downs and headaches

Performance: really hard to get it going, but cruised well on the freeway, and was great off road- I think thats what killed it !

I would love to have a 4X4 for camping, and even with all the hassels the rangie gave me I would still have another one.

I'm driving my GTR every day at the moment- its loud, fast and a bugger in traffic but I love it !!!!

like factor: 7/10 for the rangie and the GTR is of the scale

Well I've two others ;)

1)

'81 280zx, Black with silver bonnet, 5 spd manual & targa roof. 2.5" from the manifold back sounds cool for an old girl :P

Hmm, good for a cruise with the roof open and a 2:24 around Philip Island, that was fun! Kept in fornt of the V8 Hillmen and almost kept up with the SII RX7 :D understeers like a bastard tho. Haven't driven for a while and is for sale! Offers?? $$$$

2)

'92 MR2 GT-S Red

Quick, nimble and its an MR! handles like a go-kart and yes that's a good thing! Great ****pit for excellent sound with the stereo!

Will be going on the market once I replace the boot lining. Made a pasta bake in the boot after a trip back from Apollo Bay along the great ocean road. If only the pasta had of cooked as well I would have had diner ready to serv :(

Don't smell too good now. Will miss it when it goes tho...

Just need a need a silver BMW M5 parked along side the R33 now...
