Members other rides ..???!!!!

[choplee]

Just some fun really to find out what other rides you have on the drive and see if there's some real head turners in the garage or if you should only take them out under the cover of darkness .... Lol lol

Don't be shy ...!!!!!!

Mine are boring Vw off the shelf .. Lol

2011 caddy spec'd up grey ....replaced with a berlingo to bash about for work
2000 beetle red.................replaced with a freelander 2 ,so the wife can bash about for work

 

[Stu]

Nothing special here really -

Mine is an A4 S-Line 3.0 V6 TDi Quattro S-Tronic (Although it is well spec'd :grin: )

Hers is a MK6 Golf 2.0 (140) Bluemotion Tech Plus Tree Hugger Edition :laugh2

The Golf is actually remarkably economical and can see 65 mpg without any effort. Wish I could say the same for mine :doh

 

[James]

Mine is my daily driver and my only vehicle

I gave up my Volvo C30d SE. That was a great car - beautiful interior - so comfortable on long runs and if only all car makeers could make interiors that nice and easy to use

Appalling low speed ride and I mean appalling and thirst not so great - beautiful looking thing though

I of course have the VW Vanagon 1991 - Carat Spec - Westfalia - that's going to go.

Just my Cali on the drive now, used to have a Merc C63 so now £££'s better off with just the one vehicle

 

[ChrisandPenney52]

We finished our long standing relationship with our much loved '52 reg Boxster and a useful and comfortable Volvo V50 when we got our Cali. We don't miss them. Our other transport is now a 12 year old Yaris with 95k on the clock.

Also fixing up this state-of-the-art 1x2 transport with occasionally functioning three speed Sturmey-Archer.

Ahh, the 3 Speed Sturmy Archer :boohoo

I suppose upgrading to a twist grip wouldn't fit with the character of that would it :rofl

Ah, you're quite right - not justfour wheels.

We still have:-

2009 Volvo XC60 D5 4wd

It was a leftfield choice - C30's not the best in the class - not particularly a great new buy but I picked up a 2007 ex dealer demo with a ton of kit.

2nd hand they make great sense - it just became a bit null of void when I wasn't get the use out of it.

Beautiful car though to be in and look at.

And of course the VW Vanagon - which was a bit mental - an American Spec T25 is a different beast and beast is the word. It's arare Carat Spec, electric windows, central locking, power steering, cruise, air con with aircraft style vents.

But we've had a few probs with it and it's time for it to go

You see the origins of the Beach here - these were based on European Multivans - Whitestars, Bluestars etc. VW in the US kitted them out with a grey late 80's VW Velour interior. The seat folds into a bed. It has two 'taxi' seats behind the driver and passenger seat which fold up. Carat spec got you lowered ride, and these silver bumpers and areo panels on the side


What makes did you have in mind.

 

[choplee]

well....we have had afew interesting one's ...... and makes my bettle ,caddy line up look abit dull... :doh

 

[KernowLad]

BMW 335d Touring -around 300bhp so it moves well.

Salcombe Flyer 14.5ft speedboat with a 2 stroke 60 (very light so nippy!)

Oh yes .. It will make u smile handing the grand Picasso back

 

[Stu]

Smile!!!

I'd hang out the bunting and call a party.

I had the misfortune to travel in one as a hire car in France last year. Say no more. :headwall

We have the Golf BM treehugger Tech Plus which I guess is similar to yours and I find it a very likable and capable car. It replaced a 4 year old Leon TDi 140 which we never really loved.

 

[MickyBlue]

I prefer to ride 2 wheels ;-)

Either this or a Marin

 

[Andy]

Nice machine MickyBlue.

I traded my 04 K1200RS in for the cali as I was told not to ride it due to medical issues.
