What do you drive?

... Quite a lot of Subaru drivers amongst RFF folk .... I like them too but hard to find here in Europe
 
2002 or 2003 (I forget which) Nissan Maxima, now with 160,000 miles on it. I figure after I get to 250,000 I may start thinking about another. I really look at a car as a tool. There really isn't any on the market that get me excited, and I just need one that is reliable and will last a long time. My Maxima is doing the job very well right now.
 
My 850 5d has 385.000 k's still going strong. I hope to get to 600.000. My care before this was a Mercedes 240d which atrted to fall apart after having done 845.000 Km's
 
A Seat Alhambra - 7 seater van thingy

Skoda Octavia - never thought I'd buy a Skoda :) But filmed with the emergency services last year and drove at high speed (130mph) with a police driver in one of these and they're great...

Buying an F150 when I move to the US in the autumn. And a Mustang...
 
I have an old 3-speed Gazelle city bike, this Gazelle road bike for sports, and I fixed up an old Koga Miyata which is now my bike for long tours and vacations.

Wish I could afford a Land Rover :)

A 'bottle-green' Volvo 945 ('96) +/- 260 000 km, a reel tank with a 2300 cc turbo intercooler petrol engine. Burns about 10 à 15 lit per 100 km. lots of loading space, Indestructible and very, very safe (ask that public transport bus, last year)!
I hope to keep that one for about 22 years, as told in the folder...

I noticed that too. I've owned two. They are probably one of the better handling foul-weather cars. I made many a ski trek up into the Sierra Nevada mtns in my Subarus. The AWD is very nice, but they were never quite roomy enough for me on the inside.

Ok, I think I have the best car here! An incredible, beautiful, vintage 1995 Toyota Tercel. Complete with a multi-patch Burgundy Paint, 5 inch wheels, with a beautifully coffee stained tan interior (The coffee stains were from the previous owner). I have a great two speaker FM / AM sound system, complete with static, and constantly fogged windows.

Hmmnnn . . . maybe someone will trade my car for their leica mp?

I get 40 miles to the gallon, just because its top speed now is 50 mph . . .
 
I drive my 150cc Scooter (CF Moto) whenever possible. 75 MPG and fun to drive.

If it's raining or icy roads I drive a 1992 Volvo 740 wagon. It's great for hauling the band gear in.

I also have a '85 Dodge pickup that only sees occasional use.
