I don't like the mk2 Ford Escort RS2000, I hate its stupid face.

[DaveH23]

I dont like convertibles.

[0llie]

I've owned 9 cars, none of them RWD (well, my Shogun was part time 4WD but that doesn't really count!)

[Limpet]

I like many diesel engines.

[Vladimir]

Both our vehicles are diesels (soon to be fixed though).

[Riley Blue]

I like Audis.

[balls-out]

I like american cars.
I thought my e34 m5 dull and bland.

[dave7692]

I enjoy driving my golf....

I can't tell Mk1 Escorts from Mk2 Escorts.

Which makes me a heathen, apparently.

Dead to me.

That would make you a genuine outcast among the majority of people I associate with.

Which says more about them than you.

Here's mine, I am genuinely sick of Mk1 and Mk2 Escorts.

Get off this site and don't come back.

Actually, whilst you are away, take a cyanide pill!

Fastest car I've ever owned is my 320d. I like the idea of flat out speed but it's never interested me enough to put up with the cost of having something quick.

Some of the most fun I've had driving has been in a 1.4 TDCI Ford Fusion. Slow, but very exploitable.

Go and work out how much it would cost you to switch to a thirsty petrol.

Uh oh...

[mikeyr]

I react worryingly enthusiastically to spotting a Proton Satria Gti on the road and have to tell my disinterested passengers that they had their handling fine tuned by Lotus...


...more so than if an actual Lotus drives past.

Ooh, you're not allowed to say that on here. If you like diesels, you must have given up on life / hate petrol engines / don't deserve to be called a car enthusiast.
