those E30's :wub:

I'm also a member of tmf's secret 'DAS' (dub appreciation society)

I'm driving a mk2 golf gtd, quite rare and I love it. Totally dependable, which is why i've done 18k in less than 12 months and the mini is lying on its side with a no floorpan :D

Good thing is though, after picking up a dead gtd I now have a t2 kicking around and big lonely engine bay :wub:

Nala is on the drive awaiting bodywork.... we also have a Galaxy and a Ka, which we all share so I take it in turns to steal one of those from the wife or son to get to the station and back each day... also have a 96 Vectra 2.0l SRi which is off the road with no MOT (just needs rear suspension bushes), saving me tax and insurance, but feeling very very sorry for herself :D

I've got the G reg mini.
Dad's got a Citroen C4 coupe (very very nice car, that one; I used to drive it before I got my mini). Before that, he's had a Citroen Picasso, Citroen XM, Citroen BX, Citroen DS - see a trend here - and in the very olden days a few minis (of course!) and old Fiats.

Mum's got a Citroen C3.
Step mum has got a Renault Clio with a stupidly hard clutch pedal.

I think that's it :D
