Vauxhall Astra estate.... to carry dogs and stock and sacks of rubish to the local tip.....
I tried to be green and use our kite Buggy but I kept coming to a full stop at kerbs...
I would use me bus pass more but I can't keep me balance standing up on a moveing bus...
My deeds say I can keep chickens and horses etc in my garden... I am seriously thinking "Donkey Power"........ but I do like me flowerbeds and wildlife ponds.... I must check out cost of animal feed next week though as it might not only save on petrol but also on garden fertilizer.

A VW Polo Classic 100CL. Its basically a Polo with a boot, but a 100 bhp engine. Goes like the clappers.
Oh! and a personalised number plate ending in FOS, in fact so has my wife and son.
Perhaps that could be another thread? Personalised number plates.

Nissan Almera Tino, currently without the seats and full of bags of books.
I just LOVE this car. It's brilliant, doubles up as a van and a family car, and has moved tens of tons of books around with no complaints. Pity they don't make them like this one any more...why is it that when a manufacturer makes a winner, they stop making them?
What sort of bike do you have Coastal? I used to be a dispatch rider in London, and occasionally have a pining session for riding. I got rid of my last bike, a Suzuki GS500 last year, when I realised that for the second year running I only had 3 miles on the clock between MOTs... *Insert embarrassed smiley here*

Yes I know its a 4x4
but
I run mine on cooking oil and it only costs me 27p a litre and because I do less than 10,000 miles a year then I do not have to pay any duty.
Beat that

pah! I spend £1.50 a litre on four star. But my car has free road tax and cheap insurance and doesn't do many miles so it kind of weighs out. Nothing on it to go wrong either so no upkeep as such. Just stick it back together with tape, it's fab!
