So tell us about your pride and joy(s)?

Yours truly has a 3 year old 4-door manual Kia Rio hatchback (don't laugh). We weren't sure about getting a little Korean car when we bought it but it's been a little beauty with no probs and it doesn't chew up the fuel.

I have a 1987 Holden Commodore VL.
It's blue  ;D And a pain in the butt sometimes, but I still love it.

I have a Black 2004 Holden Vectra - very good car :thumbsup

Why Holden has replaced the imported European Opel range with Daewoo's is beyond me  ::)

Now I wonder why you would say that Jack lol.... actually used to be a holden girl but then got married and he cares more than I do about all things cars, so you go with the flow...my 3 favorite cars would be an FJ, a mustang or a PT cruiser

2002 Nissan X-Trail. Was great for the heaps of rural work trips I had to make over the past few years.170,000 Km's in 4 years. Lease is up this month so probably now going for a new Mazda 6 Wagon as the rural trips are now much less.
