  • Let's talk cars

    Well I've got a 2 year old fiesta titanium 1.6 with a 120 horses hidden under the bonnet. It's a fairly good around the town with it's light steering and quiet engine. However its quite gutsy on the motorway but has exceptional breaking power (as I unexpectedly found out on the way to Southampton recently. Something I don't want to have to do at 70mph again)
    Unfortunately it's not got the greatest boot, so if I go flying and take more than one heli The rear seats go down, and they don't fold flat so the helis will sometimes roll over :(

    Before the fiesta I had a mk 5 golf, 2 litre TDI and that went like stink. The only fault I found with this car was the fuel tank. It was like trying to fill up a oil tanker, but I would get 50mpg which wasn't too bad, and on a good run I'd get 60mpg. I loved the look of this car and it sounded like a beast. I was so upset to see it go, but in the end it made sence to trade it in as it was coming to the end of it's life. I may have even shed a tear lol.

    If I could have any car in the world, it would have to be the new Golf R! It's just pure awesomeness all round!
    I would take it to a race track and give it a good spanking!

    I know I've spoken about speed Above, and maybe come across as a bit of a boy racer, but believe me, im not. I have a farther who is a traffic cop, I take pride in what ever car I own and would hate to damage it, and lastly ive experienced the consequences of a "boy racer " and saw a close friend get extremely hurt by a teen driver showing off.

    Anyway back on topic, what have you got/had and what was your favourite and what would you have if you could?

        Company car - Mondeo Econetic 1.8 diesel estate on a 10 plate.

        Plenty quick enough and comfortable and does 50 to the gallon. Has a boot big enough to get a 90 and a 50 size heli in with all field gear without even putting the back seat down, and keeping the boot cover slid over the top. Put the seats down and it's like a bleedin' hangar!

        Favourite car I've ever owned was probably the Toyota Carina E 2.0 Executive model quite a few years ago before it was replaced by the Avensis. That car was quick and very well equipped and still felt and went good well after 100k miles.

        Family estate cars only for me these days.
