I guess you HAD to ask this question this week!!  Cry

For the past 4 years I been running a '98 Nissan Primera. Lovely car, but has recently been costing too much to keep in shape.
Last week I shopped around and got a great deal on a '02 Nissan Almera Tino. First class condition from a main dealer, full service history, low mileage. Fabulous.
Picked it up last Monday .........
on Friday night it was parked outside my house .... and was hit by a bus .....I'm still waiting for the insurance company breakdown truck to come and take it away!!

I’m driving a 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme!  It is an estate car that sat for about 10 years.  After replacing the computer and most all of the censors the car runs great.

Ps –it helps that both of your sons are expert auto mechanics  wOO

I drive a Skoda Fabia. It's nearly 3 years old now and the very first car I bought brand new. It is a very comfortable ride, and in spite of being only 1.4L can cruise comfortably at 95mph for long periods - or so they tell me Smiley

It has now done just under 70,000 miles (I use it for work as well as pleasure). Like James' car, mine recently was a victim of an unprovoked attack and is currently undergoing surgery - another driver decided they wanted to be in my lane so just drove into the side of me Sad

My 2004 Hyundai Accent was my first car purchased brand new...over the years,it's been subjected to quit a few incidences of minor parking lot damage,but it's still a tip top ride. Cool

I'm driving an 5 year's Audi A6. Great car, although it's milages (204.000 km) is showing some signs. There are some problems with the automatic gearbox. Last week I had to step out to push the car back Sad Apparently there's an electronic problem when shifting it to 'R'... The car will be repaered tomorow. Extra costs  Angry

But, I have something to look forward to. Some weeks ago, I ordered a new car. This time, something more reliable and less costly to keep it driving. No German car... but a Japanese one : The multi purpose sport van from Mazda, the Mazda 5. OK, not as sexy as an Audi A5, but I must safeguard my studio budget as well... Wink

I'll post photo's as soon as I get it (late December or beginning Janaury...)
