Ah, it's a good idea for a thread, Witch.

I'm driving Renault Kangoo. Registered to a van. 1,5 dci motor (diesel). Built in 2006 so it's an old model nowadays. I've had it 4 years now and I've driven 100 000km's in that period. (Total 140 000km's)

My wife has a Nissan Micra, 2006 year also. She has much shorter distance to work than I. She's been talking lately about getting a new car (possibly a bigger one) and she likes them alot in general.  :)

Don't drive, never have probably never will. Don't feel I've missed out on anything really, yeah sometimes it would be good to drive wherever but I've got this far in life without it. There are always trains buses taxis and other people. Think I'm too much a scatter brain who lacks concentration and road is safer place without me. Costs way too much money anyway insurance road tax petrol maintenance and that's after you've spent a few grand for something half decent. I can always claim to be doing my bit for the environment.

I haven't had a car in about eight years... which is odd because I always had one from the age of 18 until then...

It's just too expensive nowadays... and public transport serves me just fine....

Never driven. Never owned a car. Doesn't get me out of buying a car though as my wife and son drive  :(

Cars..I love cars. I love driving...I love roadtrips - you get the picture.  ;)

I am driving a Ford Kuga - nice and comfy and big enough for my dogs as well as for transporting all the stuff I need to by (and dispose of) for the rest of my critters.  ::)

Nooo, mine is on the back door of the house ( I took it out of the old car when it went for scrap) I haven't got round to putting it in it's rightful place yet.

Will sort that out tomorrow.
Thanks for reminding me Anna.

No, because I don't have any back windows!  Mine's in the bottom left corner of my van's window.  You'll know me if you see me!

Once I ordered car stickers along with other stuff but I received normal stickers.  :)
I think it doesn't bother and maybe they just didn't have them at the time. Also, it could be I ordered wrong stickers too.

I drive a 2011 Ford Focus Sport diesel
Wife drives a 2014 Ford Fiesta Zetec S
We also have a 1968 Mk2 Ford Cortina estate in my garage needing some weld repairs, also have a 1971 VW Early Bay camper that is nearing the end of an 8 year full restoration and should be on the road with in a few weeks

I also drive a Peugeot Partner van for work

I know these aren't cars but I have a 1962 Lambretta and the wife has a 1976 Suzuki SP370 trial bike and a 1985 Honda XBR500 bike

:) :)
Is is a crime to believe in something different?

I meant what I said at the time that I said it

After spending about 20yrs on bikes only - I now drive an old Volvo S40 automatic.
Not as much fun as the bike but gets both kids in, can listen to the stereo and I can stay dry when it's raining.

i didnt learn to drive until i was 25. i had lived in the city all my life so walked/cycled/bussed it everywhere. it wasnt until i moved on the road as a new age traveller that i felt i had to learn and it was one of the best things ive ever done. i absolutely love driving. the first car i bought was a w-reg bmw 316 saloon. it did 0-60 in 9 seconds, would sit at 120mph all day and the fastest i had it was 135 and still increasing. at that point i shit myself lol. the fastest car ive ever driven was my mates turbo saab which i drove from seeing NMA at northampton to a party in nottingham, in just under 40 mins -which is very naughty as i must have averaged 140 all the way.that was when i attempted to "close my eyes and count to ten" but bottled it at about 6 lol. i have never had a license as part of the fun of being a traveller was living completely without regard for the law and as i have never voluntarily given a policeman my real name i didnt see the need. now i'm back in the city i dont drive again.of this i'm glad as i would like to live as long as possible and cycling everywhere is definitely healthier.
