RE: Ever wondered what us PHers drive?

[gforceg]

Great variety of cars. I don't think any of them actually surprised me as being a PHer owned car.

I am a little surprised there wasn't a single Corrado on view in the 15 pages I looked at. I wonder what that tells me...

Until you remember that PH started off as a TVR forum and there isn't even one there.

You're not looking at all the photo's are you......

Ah - an S-Cargo. A jap van that looks like a French van complete with Anglo/French pun. Got to love it when designers get to do their thing with a sense of humour. Speaking of which that Sunny power train should be a giggle too! Carpool please kind Mr Garlick! Of course, the fact it actually looks like a snail...

Not sure why these PHers are pretending to own all these weird and wonderful cars. Everyone knows that the vast majority of PHers only drive MX5s or TVRs.

Cool Renault 16 and black LCR

I thought most PH'er now were powerfully built and only drove 500bhp plus BMW ///M's, Merc AMG's or Jag R's?

Must be their other halves!

My Dad had a couple of Renault 16s. The last one was a TX with column shift - remember them?

He traded the last one in for a Mk2 Golf GTI - which I still own.

I believe the 16 was once European Car of the Year.

Not seen one for years!

Twitter - um. Really must join all these important social networks so beloved by the media. Of course why I want to direct any money or approval to a couple of US companies I am not quite sure. And of course any comments will be bound by US laws perhaps I might feel inhibited.

Still its easy for the media ....but why cannot we have a non-US alternative. Stick with e-mail me.

I just had to have an NFR, I love the colour. Not too common either

It's the OEM one, pretty sure it's drilled. It was fitted by the dealership when new, the original owner ticked every option

I find it funny when people say they don't have a PH type of car, or such as a chap on Facebook the other day saying the new MINI thing isn't a "very PH kind of car". This just proves, there is no PH kind of car. We have a GT3RS 4.0 and a Nissan S-Cargo on one page.

Pistonheads isn't about whats on the drive, its about who is behind the wheel.

Interested to know the story behind that Cortina - looks like it could be hiding something useful under the bonnet..

I thought that too.

Quite like the renault aswell.

Would never drive either but both different.

I took a test drive in one the same colour back in the early 1980s, it was a 1972 car, an automatic, on a "K" plate for £200 with a long MOT. It drove pretty well, but the Automatic gearbox worried me, I wish I'd bought it - it couldn't have been more troublesome than the mini I finally decided to buy.
