What's your daily driver?

Only owned 2 cars! 1.1 '84 Pargas blue  'C' which I brought from Wales, entering England and the head gasket blew  :cry: Think the car didn't have a passport!

I did borrow the Merc Sprinter from work last night and it was like 'Get out of my way, I'm coming'.

Not planning on selling the GTi just yet though :wink:

I know this thread hasn't been used for a while but what the hell!
My daily driver is a Lancia Integrale Evoluzione,so as you can imagine the Golf is a bit underpowered! Thats why I'm picking up a Passat VR6 estate next week to put the lump into my Cab! I know it destroys the handling but always seen the cab as more of a cruiser than a bruiser anyway.

My Cabby is my work hack :mrgreen: , and at the weekend I drive a Citreon Xsara…best way to transport the family :oops:

My milage is going to go up in 6 months due to a job change so may have to change the Cabby for a motorway car :cry:

But should have enough money by then to build a sprint/hillclimb car for fun 8)

Mine is currently a Honda Civic (not mine, waiting for the insurance to give me some money).  Hopefully will get the mk1 back on the road, but in the mean time thinking of a mondeo - purely cos its a good car for the money.  I also have a labrador and dont really fancy muddy/sandy paws on the leather in my mk1.  I might be getting a cabby instead of the mondeo - Head versus heart time I think!

Audi TT's aren't hair dresser's cars - more like estate agents manager's cars (with their plebs invariably driving BMW 'Mini's')

Check my stealth wheels out and in the fastest colour,
can't beat the sound of a screaming 2.2 vetec at 8000rpm (through a custom de-cat exhaust of course)
Just for the record i'll stick some pictures of my last daily drive up it was a 1979 mk1 golf gti
