    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..

    1992 daihatsu charade, probably the greatest thing ever made. runs on the smell of an oily rag for weeks on end, has a fully removable stereo to prevent theft

    bought it for 2 grand when i got out of hospital last year, only had 120,000 clicks on it

    is powder blue, makes the ladies wet

    so jealous.
    my 96 three door was the best thing ever.
    lilac blue was sexy.
    could knock out nearly 600 clicks on a tank.

    stupid Kangaroo in the suburbs wrote it off.

    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?
