Saab 93. Best car I've had. Mate had one and I liked it, so got one soon after. Reliable.

My old man's a little obsessed with Saab's owned 4 or 5 and worked for them for a period.

I've got its predecessor the 900, 3-door. Donated/bought on the cheap from my old man. It's like driving a super-fast tank while sitting in an armchair, and is indestructible. 128000 miles and counting.

My Car is a Mazda3 Sport, it's a 2.2d with 185bhp.

As for Why, because I wanted something which was going to be reasonable to run, reliable but had decent performance.

Volvo's: My old man use to own a Volvo Estate (something or other) back in the 90's. Very reliable but, very annoying. How many times do you need some old dear questioning your suitability to drive if you are unable to to turn the fucking lights off?

Recently I have been driving a BMW X5 3.0 (ish), a big fuck off Bentley Convertable whish I shit myself every time I get in, and a S65 V12 AMG Merc (which I love)...oh and also my personal 1996 Austin Meastro....

Completely different to my "real life" back home dude.

 I'm basically a "do what a fucking rich bloke says" bitch in Monaco until I get pissed of with it and decide to come back/go somewhere else.

Mainly I clean overpriced expensive shit in the summer and blag my way to maintenence work in the winter. Sometimes they need a driver and I drive the motors.

EDIT: PS, Glad you consider the Meastro to be up there with the rest, it's almost a classic, almost!
