    I used to have a Nissan bluebird but i never completed a journey in it,it always broke down at the last part.I think i gave it to much choke

    Bongo, you've pinched my car!!! The Lamborghini Aventador is one on my fav's, bit of a Ferrari fan myself so I'll go for a F458 or a Aston Martin DBS.

    I drive a VW Passatt, company car, what a soulless machine. Changing it in December, hope I don't get stuck with the same bloody car again.

    Ferrari is a better build than a Lambo but not as insane

    I drive a Peugeot Bipper, it's a pile of crap and if it wasn't a company vehicle wouldn't be seen dead in it. The family car is a Mazda 6 - 2.2 turbo diesel 4 wheel drive, it flies ;)

    As for a dream car, for the week a Jaguar XF and for the weekend an Aston Martin DB9 ;)

    I've had lots of cars down the years,initially stodgy Company cars,but when I began buying my own opted for the likes of Saab900 Turbo,and Toyota Celica,both excellent vehicles.

    Last year I decided it was time to indulge myself again and got a Mazda MX-5,2000cc,hard top version,and it's a little beauty. Drives like a dream.

    I'm a big fella,and I have to really duck my head to get in,but,as the bishop said to the actress, once inside,I'm in seventh heaven. <whistle>

    I'm not a car fanatic,so don't get too worked up about Lamborghini's,Porches,and the like,but I do love my Mazda.

    I had a motorbike in Gambia for 12 years,and loved it. No test,just a licence,and away to go.

    The weather in this country puts me off getting one,not to mention the fact that I would have to go on course and pass test,etc. So,regrettably,no motorcycle for me here.

    Do you have a bike now,Dai?

    I'm on my third Mazda MX5, (MX5 club member), and one of the best little sports cars you'll ever own, My current one is a MKII 6 speed RS Special edition, and have owned MX5's for the last 15 years, before that had a couple of Classics (TR6), always had sports cars since youth (Triumph), my dream car would be a Triumph TR3A, or a Jaguar XK120, I use the MX5 around the Gower lanes, but have a Corsa SRi for round town! This is the only subject that comes after the Swans!............. <cheers>

    "Vetch I knew there was something special about you!"

    Took your time,Dragon,I've known for eons,but better late that never,eh? <whistle>

    So,I had better keep my eyes open for you in the lanes.

    I should look into the MX-5 Club,then.
