    CUK Car Owners trend

    Cars are like pets - look at the choice and you know who is the owner. Ignoring the sad fact that some contractors on this board actually drive Rovers, here is what we have:

    1. Yellow Lamborghini - threaded: great car, great man.

    2. Pink Merc SLK 220 - DimPrawn aka Gentle Bender, enuff said.

    3. Black Mitsubishi Pickup L200 Animal - shaunbhoy: big car was meant to make up for his obvious deficiencies...

    4. Pearl Blue PUG 307 HDI (2l diesel) - AtW: trendy car that makes it obvious that this cool dude got good taste

    What is your car? Be honest!

    I drive a Prius as it is good for the environment and everyone in Hollywood drives one.

        I get too much abuse when I mention mine, but it's a small green hatchback. It's convenient and cheap to run. I can't say that I care much about cars, beyond practicality, and reliability.

          Just inherited a Brown(sable) Arnage T with "Saddle" interior. I'm in lust.

            Oi! There's nothing like reliable value! Most of your cars depreciate more a month than my car cost from ebay last year (1996 Rover 414SLi). Not only that it runs on nat farts so there's even less money to go to the treasury.

                I have a Renault Scenic (baby daughter), but I am still a permie so the BMW/Lexus/Merc will have to wait till I start contracting. Incidently my brother just bought a 4x4 merc 6 years old for only £13k not bad it looks very new.

                    The merc? about 60k. It had one female owner. He found it on autotrader it was a small garage that sold it.
