Wish I was like that wash them all every week. I washed both vans Sunday was gonna do the car but had to go to work, the next day the roads were wet and dirty, got he Monday and the vans were filthy what a waste of time washing them. It's nice when they are clean but our fist jobs are about 40 mile away every day !!!! 👳👳👳gotta say when we do go out in the car it is nice from driving vans all the time. Think we've only done 20,000 miles in the car and its 3 years old 👳👳👳

Nothing more expensive than kids!
If you're not enjoying her might as well get rid though.
I did a lil track day in a 360.
Loved it.
And much prettier than the F430.
And a gnarlier sounding engine.

I haven't got a car personally.

The late lamented 406 estate has gone to a good home and is still being used.

We (Mrs. Gold and me) now have a little Suzuki SX4 which she mainly uses. I know you are desperate to see a picture of it so have a look on line. But no it's not the very latest model it's the one they are selling the last ones off available 2007 - now.

Yes George have 2 vans out, one which is for my wife she does alot of care home cleaning & communal landings for private buildings.  Then me and my son go out window cleaning, cleaning and abit of gardening George. Been cleaning windows since I was 17 m8 and had own company since 2000, then got son in then got enough to bring wife in to help out. Incorporated company to Ltd last year so been going ok but takes years to build up a good running company pretty lucky really but as been hard work. The days when I use to go up a three part ladder in the ice cold days which lots on here who have been doing for many years like myself know the feeling old school before the wfp came into action. I don't find you noisy George it's interesting to know how people built up there company's.

Out of interest.......how much did the Ferrari get sold for if you don't mind me asking?

Had a Porsche in my twenties, but was really aiming for a Lotus Espirit but too expensive for me back then.

I may be coming into significant money soon (fingers crossed) and I'm tempted to buy a Nissan 350 which I was going to get last year but bought a practical Honda Civic sedan hybrid instead as girlfriend wanted me to get it for her really.

I haven't got a car as im only 21 and my insurance just for my van is £1100 a year!!!
hopefully next year it should be around the £500-600 mark so I can get insured on a family members car, tought choice thought... audi A3 sline black edition, Audi Q7, range rover or Audi A4 convertible.

last year I priced up getting insured on my brothers Nissan GTR and it was only £15000 :o

so I drove it without insurance before he sold it just on private land WOW the fastest thing I have ever felt.


we also had a wide choice of motorbikes last year.....

No.
Tested the RRS, X5 and bought the 4.2 twin turbo'd V8 Q7.
Only 1 model down from the V12 but I imagine a world apart.
I do love mine though.

Just googled that tri turbo X6.
Kind of like it.
Looks a bit too...sleek? For me...
Bit low slung.
I prefer the more sit up and beg of the RR or Q7.
I still think the Q7 grille in your rear view mirror is fiercest.

Definitely. Mine is 0-60 in 6.4. Quicker than all the boy racers in pratmobiles round here.
Everything about the Q7 is sublime.
Except the fuel economy.
Published figures are absolutely nowhere near.
But whisper quiet at well over 100mph and a V8 that makes you tingle under hard acceleration makes it all worthwhile.

Nice car Essex, is that yours or are you just posing in it pmsl !!! I've not seen it smoking around here as I'm in Benfleet m8 👳👳👳 still nice car abit juicy on the fuel I've heard, but if peeps got money to buy one then they wouldn't worry about the running costs as they do about 12 to the gallon 👍👳👳👳🌲🌲🌲

It was as mine, but only for a long  weekend, lol.....I bought a x5 about  3 years ago, dealer wouldn't do much on price, but that was part of his offerings. The dealer is a super car dealer in Southend, all cars under cover and I still go down just to look at the cars.

I had I go recently in my mate toy kit car thing like Caterham but its no toy he drove it first I nearly soiled my y front, its running tunned cosworth turbo in a kit car 0-60 in a fart, now thats speed and a fraction of a super car, ive never experienced anything go off the mark like that, ive driven my mates lutus carlton on steriods over 500bhp I thought that was quick but nothing like the kit car border line frightening. 

My dream car is cortina mk1 in pear white with modern brakes an suspension with a engine from a gsi carlton then rebuilt and tuned,

since its cars I just remembered my mates built a light weight mk1 escort the london look low with little wide mini type wheels running a highly tunned vauxhall 2.0 red top, ive seen it shift but not been in it yet,

60 plate bmw m3 cabrio, black with red. Last car was Porsche 911 carrera 4s cabrio.

Yesterday I looked at an Audi r8 which was simply stunning but I have decided not to go for it now as I want to put another van on the road in the spring and my kitchen needs doing so I'm saving the money but my god it was good! Maybe in the summer when another van is up to speed.

when i used to just have the van it was horrible nipping out in the evening with a full tank of water!! ::)roll ;D
