What do you guys drive??
Just wondering
What do you guys drive over there???
I have a ford focus 1.4 here and although its a great car to drive it would'nt pull you out of bed in the mornings. I was looking at the focus xr5 on the aussie web sites and man i want one of them. would never be able to afford one of them here as it costs 36k euro thats about 58k aussie money.
My guess is you all drive 4x4's
Thanks in advance

Toyota corrolla 1.8, it does me for now but i'd love a 4WD for trips to the islands like moreton, straddy and fraser.
My mate will be posting here soon cos he'll be dying to tell everyone he is driving a brand new hummer. He gets it next week.

Your choice here is a 4x4 for schools run , or holden v6/v8, anything under 3l is for collecting trolleys at the supermarket

Or a suped up ute ( strong chain to stop the dog flying out the back )

Re: What do you guys drive??
We've just bought our new baby, a VW Eos convertible, it's bloody lovely 
We still have our old cars - a 10 year old Mazda 323 and a 99 Honda Civic which we need to get around to selling. Had quite a few problems with the Mazda, but I would thoroughly recommend Hondas, they are great cars and I've had no trouble with it at all.
OH also has an Aprilia 200cc scooter to avoid the dreaded rush hour traffic. But yes, you are right, plenty of 4wds around.
