Weekend perusal, some with mild Friday budget creep...
An S500 in a great colour.

I love that, great colour and would be about as swooshy as they come. An S500 in a great colour.

I’d imagine the potential for life altering bork would be fairly high though?

If a Civic is your ideal car for 350 days of the year, I'd struggle to see the logic for changing it simply for holiday use.
Threadists may recall that I'm an enthusiastic road-tripper but a successful trip is about the route, the destination and the adventure rather than the metal box you're in. Changing a car simply for road trips would be a mistake in my view.
Bannock mentioned that they might do another road trip next year and assuming the same load (teenager is only going to get larger), it would be prudent to get a torque-laden barge which can make covering ground far more relaxing. Holidays are supposed to be enjoyable for all and knocking oneself senseless revving the tits off a car in third will be tiring (as stated).

Yes, as a solo traveller I enjoy the 'freedom' of choosing where and when with little planning other than a bed for the night.
Agreed. I will add that road trips are more fun with an engaging companion though, romantic attachment or not. Just brings it to life a bit more I think. bolidemichael said:

I apologise for no forecourt shot and for starting a reader's ride thread before posting here, but here is my over-thread max purchase
I have no idea why, because it ticks no boxes and doesn't suit either our lifestyle or our desire for reasonable economy in fuel and repairs..........but I feel a real need to own one of those while I still have a licence. They just scream relaxed comfort and style to me.
I shall have to presuade Erin Dawes that if I sell the TVR and the Saab estate it would make a sensible purchase.
We will still have a Nisan X Trail for all the rubbish shifting, dog, towing and utility jobs.
And both dogs are over 12 years old, so sadly we won't need a dog-mobile too much longer.
Well done for making the jump and inspiring me.

Congratulations tobinen - a lot of love for an R129 and agree it’s one of those cars you just want to own and experience while you still can for reasonable money. Enjoy!dscam said:
