Petrolhead95 said: PH95, you do confuse me sometimes.  I do like that idea of a bigger car though, and an Audi would be interesting - unsure on that era though. It looks soo dated and boring and that colour is questionable - B6 Audi A4 shape though, oh yes!  Speaking of first cars, are you taking your lessons or passing your tests? IIRC you have an angry wasp moped.

IIRC you have an angry wasp moped. Well I want one in Burgundy, but this one has low mileage and is in excellent condition, so I'll adjust my preferences. Just got my motorbike licence so within the next month I'll start learning to drive, but I'm already looking at cars, so if I see a bargain like this, I can just stow it away in the garage for a few months. Yes, I have a hairdryer, had it since the day after I turned 16 but now I have a full licence I'm looking into an Aprilia RS125, but I occasionally ride my dads Daytona 675.

I think I would still prefer a E46 BMW though. I dare not get a motorbike - I do not trust myself on one, but mate has a green Ninja which is quite cool. The Ninja and (the majority) of Ducatti's are my favourite bikes! I could not ride a moped though - I just feel very unsafe on one, and I could not live with the strained noise of one and where I live, we have hills and they struggle... quite abit. I think they are good for basic road knowledge though.

I think they are good for basic road knowledge though. Thing is, at my college there are a load of E46's and I like to be different. Plus, there's about 7 Audi's in our family so I need to keep the trend! What year Ninja did he have, definitely one of my favourite bikes. My dad was considering getting a Ducati but the passenger seat was ridiculously small and uncomfortable so we went for the Triumph and so far I haven't found anything wrong with it. When I start it up in the morning and the sound echo's around the close, it always brings a smile to my face! As for the moped, yes, it's bloody dangerous and I never feel 100% safe, but she's my baby and I love her

For me it's a Corrado at the moment. Leaning towards a VR6 rather than G60. I want one as my everything car. my other half can use the estate, the mk1 Golf can go in the garage for a while (a bit of restoration) and the Corrado can be mine, ALL MINE!!!!

It is a 2001 'Y' plate. He really enjoys it. I respect my life, so not ridden behind him. Ha! It is immaculate. I will not mention the speed that he has been upto, but it is quite impressive. He will book it onto a track-day soon aswell. EDIT: It also spits flames at high revs. Big grins!!

We have all the Corsa's, Clio's and Saxo's but we do have some nice cars poking around, including a couple of 911's. Sounds nice, I hope it was in green? Yes, it gets a bit windy, especially when you get past 150

Yes, it gets a bit windy, especially when you get past 150 We have a Noble, RS5, XKR and I have seen a California there one day. Looked strange next to a Lupo it was next to. Yeah, it is green - no other colour were considered. 150mph, you are not even trying at those speeds, so I have heard.

Plus, I may have chickened out a little!

Makes the fastest I have driven seem a little, well pathetic. I only have control of my Megane I learn in - so with an instructor next to me I have only tried 80mph before backing off. It should. My tests should not be too long away now!

carlove said: Now, while sitting at home I realised my 159 was much nicer than the Lancer, nicer interior, nicer quality, better looks, smarter and the AA men were always a good laugh So I have been obsessing about a 159, preferably a TI in red. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2012... At least I can plug an iPod into the Lancer and the Lancer is considerably faster and doesn't sound like a tractor. This again, got home at about 8pm so pretty dark and realised the Alfa had follow me home lights and little lights on the bottom of the doors and a light in the glovebox and subtle red ambient lighting, the Lancer does have the fantastic xenon lights though.
