Your cars

This steed has various roles - depending on which other car or bike is on/off the road: weekend fun/track car, daily driver, long-distance mile eater, and dog car.

Also a '93 Laser (which won't die (250k kms) and is a hoot to thrash around mountain roads). It usually does all the mundane stuff.

Found elsewhere on the 'net: a person with good motoring taste. Oh btw the vehicle on the left is an R1200S BMW. [smilie=mutley laugh.gif]

Now see that's what's always put me off a two seater sports convertible, there always seems to be couples of a certain age in them

At least on a bike the helmet hides the advancing years

Not at all,at our age you are lucky if you are still wiping your own arse,so driving a sports car & riding bikes is a bonus.

Who said anything about 2 seater convertibles

More like a VR6 Golf or a 3-2 Litre Audi A3---Reality is Old Bones can't get into an SLK or Audi TT/BMW Z3

(we have tried

)

Here's my four wheel alternative over the last four years ..

Which means of course that when it snows, I'm sharing Jenny's - the family car...

Sadly the blue one was sold last month pending my departure to Trinidad.

and before anyone comments on the Chelsea tractor, I have to say it is a mighty fine 4x4, and of all our vehicles it gets used the most ....
