Re: What do you guys drive?

[Rifleman]

This is my 1995 Olds 88 Royale.....presently it has over 330,000 Km on it........

[chops]

Figured I'd add a couple more 'Car in use' pics.

[Woodlouse2002]

I have a Land Rover Series IIA short wheel base (88") convertable. I would get pictures but I have none.

Hey chops, what engine do you have in that Mustang?

[Blade]

1991 Mercedes Benz 300D Turbo Diesel

[chops]

Sadly, the mustang is a 3.8L 6cyl.  Even with a clean driving record the damn thing costs over 300 a month to insure in jersey!  I'd hate to see what the 8 would be.

[Craig.]

who cares about the engine with those pics LOL
just kidding ya dude.
thats a hell of alot of money to insure how old are you? if you dont mind me asking. i mean here i could understand but in the states thats unusual

[chops]

Hahahahaha, If it were all about the engine I'd have a beat up old Pinto with a Viper v-10 in it!

I am 28, and I only have one ticket, which was for 10mph over the limit back in 1996!  Needless to say it's completely erased from my record.

Most states in the US are pretty good for insurance, but NJ has a bunch of problems.  My town is 3/4 of a mile from manhattan, and while Hoboken is really ritzy, we are only a 10 min drive to Jersey City, the stolen car capitol of the world.  That and the high number of uninsured illegal immigrants in north Jersey drives up costs . .

Add to that the $150 I pay a month for a parking space and I am out almost $500 every month . . . and I don't even have any payments left to make on the car!!!

I feel an old git... I drive a'94 VW Passat Variant 2.0GL.
And a '96 Fiat Punto 60S when the missus takes the VW.

To compensate for all this grocery/children transporting capacity I ride a really cool Honda VFR400R, black visor on the Arai  8)so I don't get recognised as being mister avarage....

not true. The Passat is a great car. Lacks at least 2 cilinders though. :-/
