One of these: Under £600 with 12 months ticket, needs the tracking sorting and possibly some new front pads, but its got faux leather seats and only 88k, so will do me for beating the snow, the xantia is like a bloody tugboat on any slippy surface, and I've already inverted one of those... Have some cool vitaras: And one curse word one: What spurious curse word have other rr'ers bought thats of limited use?

ooooo you getting it Tim? cant say i havent considered getting a 4x4 at the moment, yes i live within the M25 so its probably overkill but work expect me to drive roads that arent gritted so it would beat walking them! ;D 2" lift kit, some big tyres and it'll look sweet

screw that, I can only just afford it let alone modding it, but it costs me nearly a ton a day everytime I don't get into work.

vitaras are a fun little motor, i've been playing in mine all winter and had a right laugh with it. i fitted a 2" suspension lift and some chunky off road tyres to mine yesterday then managed to get it stuck in a snow drift 10 minutes later ;D i'll try and get some pics up later

Well I've picked it up, its a fairly well specc'd model, faux leather seats, electric everything although the fag lighter & stereo aren't working and it could do with a fresh back door handle, but for the money, its no bother really.

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.

i looked at one of these this morning bu the soft top rear bit didnt appeal to me even tho ive got a carport to park it in,I'm pretty desperate for a 4wd cos of where i live but I'm determined to hang on for a forester or a trooper. other than that it was tidy little thing,it was a special edition "hippo" model apparently but the bloke had jumped on the snow bandwagon and decided he wanted 1k for it when it was only 700 last week......

This my mates one, He didn't pay a lot for it last year, It's a M plate but it does look pretty nice with the alloys and bull bars, He's been to Spain in it, off roading and driving in the snow and has had no problems with it. I still tell him that he looks like a hairdresser driving though.
