What car do you own?

[Courty]

Probably mentioned it before... 2013 CX-5 (petrol manual). Love the car, but if I had my time over I'd upgrade to a bigger engine.

[timah!]

2012 Mazda 3 Maxx Sport.

[G.K]

Some slight alterations to my previous post somewhere earlier in the thread.....

Kia Sportage SLi T/Dsl. Work provided. Only had it 6 months. Been quite good so far. Plenty of go!
Holden Rodeo LT 4x4 T/Dsl Dual Cab. Mainly for boat towing duty and the occasional trip to the tip.
Subaru Liberty RS Turbo. Don't know why I still have this thing. Just reluctant to deal with numpties on Gumtree I guess.
Datsun 1600. 1970 model. One owner prior to me. 51K miles on the clock. All original.
Datsun 240Z. Also a 1970 model. Has had a few bits and pieces done to it.

Although this year the aim is to get rid of the Subaru, Rodeo (and boat) and possibly the 240Z if I can bring myself to do it. I've recently managed to sell a few sets of irons and other clubs that I've had hanging around so I figure it's time to move onto the cars next.

Yes, the Z is manual. They've become quite sought after these days. Have had plenty dibs offers for the Z and particularly for the 1600 having owned it for 10 or so years.

Nice G.K love the older cars. Ive got the new Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and loving it.

Very funny, Al. I've actually gone cold turkey would you believe?

[WBennett]

Al. Dibs on Dibs. I am looking at an 80s RX7 project or a Datsun project...

Welcome to the Magna club! 'cept mine's an 02 executive wagon.

Is yours grey/silver?

With the exception of a couple of splotches of bat crap that I had to wash off it this morning, it's white. Used to be my mum's daily driver until she bought a Subaru XV at the beginning of the year.

Not sure if I'll do anything drastic to it...

no way, surely Adidas have released another shoe recently or there are still some Adipure colours you don't have

[oldracer]

A few as the years have gone by, the last two still in the garage, had a Magna VRX, probably one of the best I've had, oh and still have the Naga Bus and and a crewman ute for work, the 300C is a diesel and gets around 6.2-6.5 lt /100k, great car, the 75 merc is my golf car, clubs and buggy fit perfectly in the boot

[Tongueboy]

Couple of nice Falcons there Oldracer! The XD looks snappy! I have a new ride now. Skoda Rapid, 1.2 litres of turbocharged pleasure!! Love this bloody thing, handles like a dream, goes like a beauty and just looks great. Tamworth to Sydney and return yesterday and the fuel light hasn't come on yet!

[AlexMc]

Work car is a 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander. Better than the previous model - now only the second least inspiring vehicle I've ever driven. It's free and does the job.

Personal car is a 2012 Volkswagen Golf GTI - beautiful car, has just been hit twice in a few weeks in car parks around Dubbo. Lease comes up next year - deciding between a Golf R or a Merc A250...

I've had my MK7 GOLF R for 3 months now and it is excellent, my fiancee can drive it in comfort mode like a granny then with the press of a button I can throw into Race and it is quite fun to drive. The DSG is a better transmission than the Merc A250 imho, having driven both. Mercedes badge is more prestigious though if that is your thing.

I have a Mitsubishi Lancer Station Wagon. It used to be my Grandma's.

thanks TB, XD was an original Phase 5, wish I still had it. Today's cars are amazing and yep, the Skoda does look great, underrated I think but certainly not by those that have them.

This is a better troll than the JDM wedge felt terrible.

I have always wanted one of those, seem to be good for carting around golf shit, but I will probably end up with a Legnum.

I see what you did there - no matter what others may say [and they say bad things] - I think you are clever

[damoocow]

1984 Toyota which is pushing 400000kms - had this car for 14 years and should get another 14 out of it...............
Wife has 1991 Telstar which is pushing 300000kms - she's had it for close to ten years and I won't be getting her another one for about ten more years.............

Still have this Toyota Sprinter - close to 500 000 kms now. That makes almost 22 years. Probably should upgrade before it falls apart.

There is a ridgy Phase 5 for sale at present up mid Nth NSW coast done on an factory 351 4sp ESP with a 500 pony injection set up. Looks sweet, $42k. Wish I had a more understanding wife. The dream car when I was a young fella!!!
