What do your drive?

[Craig.]

A very nice, 1982, Metalic Bronze, Austin Allegro 1.5 HL (last of the series) with 40,000 miles on the clock at the moment...
...which hasn't moved out of my Garage for the past 20 years in preference to my Motor Bikes, due to Traffic congestion on British roads, and high running costs; Road Tax, Fuel, Maintenance, etc, etc,... ...!

I cannot see me ever using a Motor Car again for the rest of my life!.....It's 2-wheels from now on!.... ....!

Paul.... ...!

That is the most impressive car to be listed yet. Even in your garage, protected from the elements, an Allegro should have turned to dust many, many years ago

I'd offer a couple of hundred for it

...the Citroen DS, with its amazing/peculiar suspension?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citro%C3%ABn_DS

It was always strange seeing them start up, whereby the whole car would slowly rise up from the ground under hydraulic pressure in its suspension.... ...!

Paul.... ...!

The motoring 'experts' always said that car was at least 20 years before its time. The same principle is still used on Citroen cars today. Also by other manufacturers including Rolls-Royce. Hydropneumatic suspension

My BMC Ausin Allegro, Morris 1100, and 1300GT were always a joy to drive, with their self levelling Hydrolastic suspension....it worked a treat!
Hugged the corners at speed, with no tilting and danger of tipping over!

Paul... :)...!

My "Luxury" car was my Austin A60 Cambridge 1.6, with a beautiful, positive, manual gearbox...>>>

Forgot to mention, my wife has an Opel Corsa C. It is affectionately known as "Skippy"................because the interior resembles the inside of a Skip (dumpster). You name it, you will find it on the floor. Sweet wrappers, newspaper, children's toys, bits of children's toys,
