What do you have in the drive?

1999 Nissan Frontier/Navara 3.3V6 4X4 128,000 miles

SWMBO says I drive her up the wall but I guess that was not the question asked.

Her Vauxhall Corsa SXi is on the drive and my Nissan Tino 2.2 Diesel is sat on the road at the moment.

I went for the higher powered diesel since she would not let me get a Navara or Mitsubishi Warrior. Need something decent sized to move the club model railway around - the Tino takes 3 or 4 chunks of our club layout with ease when I take the seats out and can still comfortably exceed the motorway speed limits with 300 kilos of layout in the back end.

Kindest regards

54 plate Citron Xsara Picasso 2.0 HDI 60,006 miles on the clock.

I like my frontier/navara BUT, in the states back in 99' they only offered a 2.4L I4 and a 3.3L V6 and to be honest it didnt need a v6. I am always at the pump filling its 18 gallon tank, but my dad has an 05 Frontier LE 4X4 and its a 4.0L v6.

Have considered learning at various times, but I've never had the need. With it being such an expensive commodity, I'd rather delay it until absolutely necessary.

Everyone up the wall!

Now, thanks to the wonderful world of dis-integrated public transport here in the UK, a Toyota Auris 1.6.

I prefer not to contribute to global warming, so I don't own or desire to own a motor vehicle!

A fine example to be setting to your younger readers!

Well I wouldn't if it was viable; however the fact that I can save over an hour off my journey time each day means that it is much more beneficial to own a car.

Remember also that it isn't global warming it is climate change.

The planet has been hotter than it is now in the past - as far as temperature change goes it is quite apparent that we are currently still coming out of the last ice age.

Indeed, 12,000 years ago most of the UK was covered with ice one and a half miles thick - right down to Watford.

I drive a Nissan 998cc Micra most days.

(There is a Jaguar XJ8 somewhere around as well)
