You've got a clean licence because you drive far too slowly Simon,

318d company car. Before that it was a Saab 93 1.9TiD. I love the BMW, sadly it appears to be a magnet for complete and utter pillocks, especially on motorways.

Welcome Dammit. Nice car, is it modified at all?

I was driving a Focus TDCi in the UK for a few weeks (over 3000 miles). It changed my mind about the value of a 1.6TD engine, before that I thought "why would you bother", but it was great and there were only a couple of occasions I would have wanted more grunt. Getting 54mpg average consumption was a huge bonus with the mileage we covered, and a lot better than the 30-40mpg range I normally get with the work car at home (1.8 auto Corolla)

I'm about to scrap the stopgap Fiat Punto diesel... It got me around for 6 months, for £500. Bargain.
Replacement is a Fester 1.4 TDCi. £35 a year tax!

We also have a Golf estate TDi that appears NOT to have a speed limiter fitted. I have seen 130+MPH on the clock!

A 500 is just a Panda in a nice frock Get a 100HP Panda instead

For the record, I drive a 1980 Fiat X1/9

I popped in to see a friend on the way home from work and, erm, I think I just agreed to buy their bright yellow Seicento for a grand! haha I just need to inform er indoors who was insisting on an automatic! lol It's a bit of a random car, I know, but it's actually kinda cool (in a gay way!) and it seems to be a decent little thing. Above all - it's something I can afford. The 5k price range we ended up looking at was waaaaay more than I could spare... Now just need to arrange insurance.

I know what you mean about the 'magnet' - I had a 320 D until last year. Best car I've ever owned but people always expect you to drive it like a stereotypical 'BMW driver'. When I retired last year I traded it in for a Mini Clubman Diesel as we didn't need two large-ish cars anymore. Love the Mini - I know there's a bit too much 'retro' - but it's great fun to drive.

I'm a fan of the 500 and the Panda, but 100hp is apparently a little too much for the Panda:

and the 500 until the facelift...

The fact that 100hp is 'too much' is laughable.

nice. i turned up home with an 03 Suzuki GSX-R 600. black/silver, nice bike. Mum made me sell it though only had it for a month, she hates bikes with a passion and then some. made a little profit on it so it was sweet. not that big of a bike person myself either i like them but i am not as big into them as i am cars. spear of the moment thing buying it as it was cheap had no-where to put it anyway so probably for the better fun while it lasted.

It's great that Europeans can build cars which shift without needing an 18 litre V8 diesel, isn't it? Bet it handles a bit better as a result too.
