Daily drives

Post by RayM » Thu Dec 17, 2015 8:48 am

Hi everyone

Not sure if this is the correct area to post this but I'm sure someone will move it if its not.

I know that many people use there Z4's as their daily drive but I'm equally as sure that many people, myself included, also drive something else far more boring on a daily basis.

So...... I thought a thread on this might be fun. Sorry if its been done before, I have had a quick look through the search but couldn't find one.

I will start the ball rolling. My daily workhorse is a Audi A6 S-Line 2.0 TDI Ultra which has sadly just replaced my BMW 528i F10 :(

What have you all got??
Porsche 997 Gen 2 Cab - awesome
Melbourne Red 35iS (Gone to a new Home)
3.0 SE E85 Maldives blue (Now gone but not forgotten)
Previous toys:- 2.0 Litre Westy, 993 C4

Recently exchanged our Series 1 after owning it for 9 years for a B Class MB, this lasted around 6 weeks ( it was awful) and now have a Peugeot 308 Allure, which to me is a typical OAP Eurobox but it works OK with plenty of room. Hardly exciting but that's what I keep the Z four.

As we are both retired I suppose all our cars count as DDs and no need for any one of them to be dull!

Zed hasn't been out of the garage for a few weeks and has been staying warm and dry with all the grotty weather.
I am lucky enough to drive one of these to work....albeit in Brilliant blue.

It's very comfy, not quite as economical as I was expecting and has lots of toys to play with.

Jeep Grand Cherokee is the daily / business hack, but we test drove a GLC 250 today so looking like that will take the place
