At the moment I'm driving a Proton (it's a Malaysian car). Otherwise I own a KIA Pride (it's identical to an old model of Ford Fiesta or Mazda 121), but my wife drives that one. Otherwise I drove a Škoda up to recently (it was my mother's car - after she retired she gave it to me), but that car is on it's last legs, so I gave it back to my mother who wanted to have a trade in for a new car anyway. That's how I got the Proton - it was my parents other car.

Complicated, ain't it. Wink

I drove one at some racing event we had at my job. I got the impression that it was a very robust car that can handle a lot of abuse. It isn't destroyed from that you happen to change gears without using the clutch. I guess that the quality of the cars is pretty lousy but they are not entirely bad.

That box shaped 1700. It fits me well, since it certainly doesn't mind rough handling. It's incredibly cumbersome despite it's size. Handles like Hornet.

Niva would be cool Cool

My ex father-in-law had one. I asked him if I can try it out, and he just laughed at me and we never returned to the subject Sad

I used to own a four door white 1990 Chevrolet Cavalier. I now have a four door greenish-blue 1994 Chevrolet Cavalier.

Nothing too exciting. Wink

Hi,

The only car I have been driving over the last few years is a violet 1997 Lancia Y. I haven't any good photo here, so here's a sample one. In my opinion it is the most beautiful mini car model ever designed.

My first car was an FJ Holden, it cost $250 with 10 months rego., I remember petrol being 23 cents a gallon and I got it on the day I got my license ( had just turned 18 which was the legal age to drive) Today I drive a Toyota 'Camry' its economical and with petrol at $1-25 per litre which works out at exactly $5-65 a gallon (i.e 1 gallon = 5.54 litres) it serves me well, as it starts everytimr, first time!

Man you must be bloody ancient? Very Happy

Well, I don't know how much the shipping would cost, but here are soma Ladas (there's a Niva for something over 1000€).

I forgot Iceland isn't in the EU. Otherwise the costums shouldn't be really a problem - shipping is another thing.

OK, back on topic then - just found a picture of "my" car (the one I own - but my wife drives, and the one I drive - but my brother owns):

The one I own.

Just imagine this one in white (even the licence plate is similar - the guy obviously lives very close to me).

OK, this is pretty much gravedigging but the topic has been made before so I prefer to use the old one.

At the moment, this one (winter tires):
