Plimthing Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 We have a Ford Focus, Ford Fiesta and 1971 VW beetle convertible! I like the little fords because they hardly use any fuel and i do 900km's a week for work alone let alone anything recreational! The Beetle is a roadworthy (and legal) project which is 95% complete. We purchased them all over here, as we sold the VW Splitscreen Kombi, Jaguar and new scenic when we came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verystormy Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 It looks like I have the worst of the bunch. A 2004 bright canary yellow Hyundai Getz. But, it gets me about, has never failed to start and is very good on fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portlaunay Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Mazda 3 SP25 GT is what dear other half is driving around in ...I'm relegated to a Nissan Micra I really like those too. I like the way Mazda design, taking cues from their more ambitious and interesting projects and distilling them down to road going versions. You can really see how they've taken the ethos of this into your car (well I can anyway) Edited August 20, 2014 by portlaunay Typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
