Nissan R33 GTR but wishing for an R35 GTR. Recently bought a 2012 X-trail as a daily driver... it's ok... hard to adjust to about 400hp difference!

I drive a Hilux, dual cab diesel ute, PV4..
She is a tired old whore and I've had her for years (Just hit the 560,000km mark, never broken down - except when I've ****ed up and forgotten to put diesel in her, haha)..
Can't recommend it enough..

gotta agree with the q-mun regarding Charades being total pussy magnets - drove one for a few years in my twenties - coincided with the greatest glut of gash granted to me by the almighty Griff

seems to have dried up now I drive a much better car

I drive a 2003 toyota echo white, 3 door hatch. The only money I've had to spend on it other then insurance was a service check that I needed to do anyways which was around $200-$250 (car break was playing up). Have to get some new tires for it aswell asap

Has been quite a good car compared to other family & friends cars.

Whats the go with P platers unable to drive turbo cars.
I'm looking at a XT Luxury or GT Forester but its turbo charged.
Since I'm still only on my P2 Licience I won't be allowed drive it. Is that correct?
If I can't. What would be the closest type of model to it? XS Luxery?

my 96 three door was the best thing ever.
lilac blue was sexy.

It wasn't his driving that was the problem. It was his sudden appearance in a suburban street!

My first car was an $800 R31 Pintara wagon with a welded shut diff, and I loved it.

Sold it after owning it for a couple of years and the guy I sold it to drove it in to a tree, tears were shed :(

This young punk is saving his money to save up for a car that will do him service up to 12 years. ;)
