I’m confused too as I drive Chevrolet and Land-Rover 🙂

I drive a peugeot 306 (Penny her name is) 😀 & Ive never been to France let alone talk about the place 😕

quote chunkielad:Ford
You still live in the 70’s, trying to cope with the 90’s (don’t even mention the millennium). A loyal, diligent worker, but baffled by office politics and labour policies. Next car will probably also be a Ford.Renault
An eccentric who likes doing things the wrong way around. Usually the one who asks all the silly questions at staff meetings. You fervently believe you have flair, but it’s less than that of a French cookbook. Most probably gay.My Van’s a Renault and the family Car is a Ford – Alison reckons both descriptions fit me exactly (apart from the Gay bit) 😳

Here Chunkielad, youv’e too much time on your hands 😆 😆 😆
I drive a Ford and damm it your right! 😥

mines a bmw520 like it cos its safe for the kids,
would love a range rover, but cant afford one 😀 -
i had a frontera sprts 4×4 & forgot to put oil in it 😳 😳 its now in jeep heaven 🙁 (nobody mentioned oil, just petrol 😆 😆 )
now have an astra coupe.. like eddie says, i like the fact it has 2 doors as my wee girl cant fall out or mess with the doors, but the jeep was great. kept them both safe and i knew they were up out of harms way. -
Renault aspiring to an Isuzu! Looks like I should join the Village People! 😮 😮 😮

😆 😆 😆 sharon my make of car is not mentioned either 😆 😆
this is a picture of the same model/colour as my own.. i had a good laugh last time i posted this. steve broughton says “always knew you drove a hair dressers car rob 😉 ” 😆 😆 😆
personaly i think steve has something against hairdressers but i cant think why 😉

I can do you a nice set of flames for the side of that motor, hundred quid to you Robert 😉
Nik, that L200 really really wants to come here, its begging you to resign it as the dewi-mobile 😉 😉
Dodge Ram & a Harley… I can only dream 😥 😥 What type of Harley btw? If you say a V-Rod, I’ll 😥 😥 😥 some more then beg to borrow it for a year 😛
I feel like the poor relation now with my little espace, maybe I should wrap it in vinyl and disguise it as a sweetie (-)
Cheers, Dewi
-
nice car rob!! 😀 😀
cannot for the life of me see a hairdresser in it!! 😆 😆
dewi! thanks, i love the truck, cause you can get 8’x4′ sheets in the back!! 😆

Could be worse Dewi – at least you got plenty of space for delivering signs ! I’ve given up changing my cars now, been through 22 in my short life – was averaging about 1 every 6 months but decided that it was costing a fortune in depreciation and somewhere along the line I got boring too (sleep) now I’m holding onto my little vw polo for a bit longer even though its getting me insults for driving a birds car 😥 and is nearly 3 years old too !

Thanks nik… but gotta disagree.. I wanted a big mutha like that.. Not that I seen it fist. My dad did… he fell in love and wanted it.. I was sick.. To be honest ide have loved him to buy it… he deserves something like that… BUT! He thinks too much about his business and said “I think ill buy it another time. And decided to buy the grenadier printer & laminator”.
maybe next year.. but great vehicle 😉 -
very wise desicion!! 😛 😛 cars are cars at the end of the day!!
anyone can have anything they want, if they pay the repayments every month!! 🙄 (but have to eat beans on toast all the time) 😮
luckily i don’t bother, i’m happy with the vehicle i have to promote my business!! and my wee vw to run around in!! 😀 😀
Nik

hey nigel! ye i know this subject gets (sleep)
but i toured europe for four weeks in a vw polo!! never let me down once!! 😀Nik
-
Oh thanks Nik 😉 – I love the pickup btw ! My cars only just run in after nearly three years since I do most miles in my van anyway.
It is a nice little car though with heated leather seats, trendy alloys, air con etc etc. and it’s pretty economical to he said putting on his most practical and boring hat 🙂 and best of all it’s paid for too !Nigel

Been looking at Cars……..Looking at the Alfa 147 GTA or the Saab 93 Aero
Heart says Alfa
Head Says SaabWatch this space 😕

glad to hear that nigel!!

Sad tale, sold my beautiful 911 for a Ferrari, wish I’d kept the 911, now drive a Lotus Elise, but now looking for another Ferrari.
Honestly, pics are available to the non believers, as if I care? -
You earn way too much money Outline, I think you may need to spread the wealth (or at least gis a drive of the lotus at weekends 😉 ) 😆
Cheers, Dewi
-
I’d love to Dewi if I’m ever around your area I’ll pop in, the lotus was better than the Ferrari honestly
£3000 for a cambelt change every 2 years, £1300 for a set of spark plug leads, £1000 for a clutch slave cylinder, it’s by far the most expensive car I’ve ever owned. -
a ferrari!! 🙄 🙄
your definately on the BEANS ON TOAST!! 😀 😀 (joke)Nik
-
We’re practically neighbours Outline (hint hint) I just really love the lotus, personal favourite is the S2 Espirit, but then I like the Delorean as well, similar shape… can’t decide whether I want to be Bond, Dewi Bond or Dewi McFly! 😉 😉
Just for drool value, what colour is the Elise? (really need a drool emoticon 😉 )
Cheers, Dewi
-
Mines new aluminium, Lotus are hopeless on colours so I thought silver with blue leather was best.
Red makes it looks like a noddy car
Blue is nice apart from that awful nautilus colour,
Titanium is just an unwashed new aluminium
Norfolk mustard, well it’s absolutely disgusting, even the colour 😉Aqua is far rarer an in my opinion the best ever it’s also the most undesired of all the colour swatches, strange.

I’ll do you some Porsche S graphics for the sides of that 944 at a good price if you’re interested 😉
-
no wonder you could afford a ferrari with cheeky sales pitches like that!
-
quote niknaxpc:a ferrari!! 🙄 🙄
your definately on the BEANS ON TOAST!! 😀 😀 (joke)Nik
Yes Nik, could have been, 13 miles to the gallon was book, 8 or 9 was more realistic, only a weekend car so I thought sod it, I drive a VW caddy pickup all week.

just got me self a new pegasus quik flexwing microloight, gret fun & beats all the traffic………bloody dufficult with ladders starapped on tho !
-
yah, shame your not closer, flying most w/es weather permitting
-
I sold my ferrari – couldn’t get a roof rack and it towed like a pig, as I slip into middle age a Citroen Synergy does well. Doesn’t have the same ring as a microlight does it.

Well I’ve got a polaris nuclear submarine (bought it from the army and navy surplus store) it has amazing fuel consumption but is a bugger to insure.
Dewi – can you do me some flames for the sides 😀
I’ll post some pics if no one believes me 😳

i can vouch for phil, i once visited phil and alison at there premises. phil had just bought the sub and was eager to take me a spin round the forth in it.. had a great time doing it too.. my ears did pop alot.
did you manage to get “the right signs” on it yet phil? from memory you were gonna try a cast on it 😉
-
😮 😮 😮 Blimey 😆 😆 No worries with the flames Phill, got a wetsuit? 😆 😆
How the devil did you end up with your own submarine? Does it still have its core?
I bet it costs a fortune to moor it! Or have you parked it 50ft down and not told em 😆 😆 😆
Cheers, Dewi

Careful in that though Chris, it looks as if vandals have had a go at the wings! 😮 😮
Cheers, Dewi

great picture mate.. 😛 i honestly dont know how you can do it.. my bottle crashes in any aeroplane.. never mind one without an egnine 😮
great stuff! 😉 -

chrisAnd you’d have problems driving it as you’d actually fly it. 😉

Just fixing up a flying saucer i got from Roswell while musing through the Roswell UFO museum and research centre.
Just a quick lick of paint and some of Dewi’s flame graphics would go down a treat. Anybody good at electrics?
Oh incidentally what year is this?
(borg)

Hobbies to take our mind off work
Stamp collecting 🙂
Beer mat souvenirs 🙂
Match box collections 🙂………..But blinkin’ nuclear subs (blown-up)
That’s one hobby Phill
How did you get submersed into that?

waite a few weeks john till i get my printer and you can fly up here and ill wrap it in vinyl for you.. it will be much easier to sell it on that way. because folk sometimes like the classic chrome. 🙄
-
Yeah, but think of the selling points!
One careful asexual owner!
Only 10 billion miles on the clock!
And its accident damaged, so imagine the knock down in price!
😀
