AirSniper Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I go for cars insurance lets me drive cheap. For years I was only able to drive small fiats until my insurance premiums fell from £749 to £449 for third party. The reason the insurance claim was local crime. I failed to see how anti-social neighbours equates to the inflated insurance prices. After a few years I found that they were then saying, no, its £800 a year to insure a 1.2L Fiat Punto, yet they were also telling me that I could have 1.6L injection Tipo (fiat) that was lierally half as big a car again... for ony £399 fully comprehensive. I now drive a bigger car because the insurance again is cheaper, this time its £525 fully comprehensive with breakdown and legal cover for an MPV (size of a decent courier van) which is handy for transporting game equipment. to game sites.

Popular Post Tactical Pith Helmet Posted December 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2021 Had this a few years now. No idea of the economy as it's a work vehicle, so just filled up and forgotten. Pretty good for airsoft as the glass is bulletproof and it's 4x4. Base vehicle is a Merc. I've been overseas in at a fair bit, but usually I just use it for popping down to the shops for a few bottles of red and some wafers. It's really comfy tbh.

I have fond memories of my black 3.2 litre (250bhp) one with a volcano red interior... the amount of PIMP jokes I got from my work mates was non-stop.... oh and the obligatory hairdresser jokes too... lol . The Quattro system on these was an absolute beast too. The car literally stuck to the road as if it was on rails..... The shape of the MK1 TT was iconic and a design statement at the time... sadly when the MK2's came out the curves were lost for the angular and straight edges which in my opinion was a let down in design... For those who don't know, Silverstone used to have a bunch of MK1 1.8T sport TT's which you could use as part of their track day events. They were such good fun to drive around the track thats for sure! Tackle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Pawlowski Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) I enjoy driving a car, so for the last 5 years I have been working as a driver. And I'm a big Audi fan. Currently driving A4. I plan to change it next year for a newer one. But still A4 Edited February 21, 2022 by Jan Pawlowski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wicksy101 Posted March 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2022 Here's mine. Its not currently got an engine in and has not had one for 9 months. Bottom end bearings went bye bye. Should be back this month. Not many people are aware of the 4 door R34s and the ones that do take a strange look on them. I personally love them. Maybe its a sign that I'm getting older but ever since I drove a B5 S4 I have been in love with 4 door saloons. The engine being out has been a bit of a blessing, although its been a boring 9 months without the car, its got some goodies going in such as forged pistons and rods, link ecu and a few other goodies.

ASP383 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Currently got a 1997 Land Rover Discovery ES 300Tdi, so nothing exciting, but ticks all the boxes for me and is more comfortable on and off road than my first car way back in 1992, which was a 1963 Land Rover 2a. I like my Green Ovals, although only brand I've had more of is Mopar (not Fiat branded stuff either), proper Plymouth and Dodge muscle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisu Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I'm not driving anything at the moment as my car is off the road awaiting a new gearbox 😃🤑 It's an old Audi A3 when it's on the road - I love it but it's showing it's age (like me really).😅 So for now I'm on the busses.

I liken it to being married to a super model. 80% of the time it's awesome. 10 % of the time it's trying to bankrupt you 10% of the time it's trying to kill you... 😁🤪😂 Skara, Rogerborg and Sisu 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
