Edit…
I no longer have the XR8 so it looks like this now.

37 and a TE Cortina for a daily driver. :
Kenworth K100G for work. :yeees:
BA MK II GT-P for about one Saturday night a month.
AU III Forte when I’m not in anything else. :hihi:

Cheers

UPDATE

19 and just picked up a 2003 Subaru WRX!

This thing absolutely hammers. Scares the crap out of me. One for for sure-once you go boost you never go back!

Yeah too bad about petrol prices but these things we must pay for. I've done about 110-120kms and used 1/4 tank. Mostly peak hour, some on boost. I don't really know how good that economy is but you can't wipe the smile off my face.

One thing for sure though is I'm not getting any mods besides an exhaust(just for the sound). It's already fast enough ;)

I'm 17, nearly 18, and I drive a '92 EB Sedan.
I also own a '67 Hillman Hunter and '72 Sunbeam Rapier, but they don't get driven much at all.
My parents drive a '90 Ltd, hence the nickname, which I drive sometimes.
