    So there doesn't seem to be a trend really - that's quite surprising!

    ...am also surprised no-one's gone for the mondeo ST as their wanna be car...wasn't that the car in Casino Royale? (other than the Aston) Sure it was? Like a new model?....is lookin good!! 8) 8) 8) Bet it has all the gadgets too!!

    It was the new Mondeo in the bond film, not the new Mondeo ST! The ST mondeo is a concept a the moment and isn't set to be out until a year after the launch of the new Mondeo, which is March.

    Wooooah - nice! Please don't say it's in Ford racing blue!!:duel

    I really can't complain though - the (very lucky) first owner of my lil baby - got her in June 06 n so far, so good - apart from driving into a pheasant that exploded and proceeded to pop the thermometer gage out of the bumper - well either that or swerve like a girl and cause loads of damage rolling into a ditch or going into incoming traffic :eek: !!

    I got me a nice 10 year old Vectra 2.5 V6. Not very economical but I like it. But i do get to drive Mondeo ST's at work as well as Saabs, Mercs and other fast cars. (I work for a rental company as a driver)

    Mine is a white 2000 model Honda CRV. It does it's job to help get the dropped palm leaves to the dump 8)

    My dream would be a WRX, chipped up and ready to give the hoons here a run for their money :twisted:

    Bike, well I had a CBR 600 back in Blighty but here now I am older, a Harley would suit me better :D

    I have had the Mini Cooper (attached) for about 7 years now, and took it off the road to rebuild it when I had an A4 Allroad as a company vehicle. Luckily, the Mini was almost *ready* when I gave my company vehicle back.

    The car I currently own is my beloved 1991 Honda CRX:

    [​IMG]

    It's off road at the mo but I have plans to lots to it including all the bodywork, new alloys and either an engine rebuild or put in a new one. It's the 16V engine as opposed to the VTEC so I'll either rebiuld or put in a 1.8 Type R engine from an Integra :twisted:

    Currently driving a 1.9 Vectra - it's a company car, nothing special.

    Next car - I'm shooting for either an Alpina or an M5, I love Alpina's but apparently they're all automatic :blink so it might have to be the M5 - tough call there..

    Dream car? - I like the new Aston quite a bit hehe - one day!

    Audi TT.

    I thought everyone in IT was supposed to have one.

    Don't worry - they ain't as good as they look.

    Maybe that's why IT people have them?
