I use mine at least 80% of the time. If temp is 38C+ and when playing golf 2 days a week I take the Nissan Maxima, clubs and buggy but by 9.30am back in the F. SWMBO wont travel in the F when we are going out ( the roof is down 95% ) so we use her Renault Laguna, something to do with hair!

The 'F' is still waiting for us, cheque still not issued!
This is the one


The wife will be the main user of this but I will use it the days she is off work. The daily wagon is the Land Rover Discovery 2 TD5, we need this for the two Dalmatians. So I use that most of the time. No photo of this one.

My original ride is my mk1 MG ZS180, I have had this for nearly 5 years. It is currently sorn'd and will be used ocassionally but probably mostly for club meets and track days. It's been modifed and is running 200bhp at present. It's my main toy as I am the site owner of www.theMGZS.co.uk ;)

That's a very smart looking ZS mate! Love the colour! And the alloys! And the bucket seats! And pretty much all of it tbh! :lol: :thumbsup:

If not, then what else do you own and which is your main car? :)

TF is my main car and does the school run, my wife Jo owns an Audi A6 Sport Quattro on an 02 plate.

bucephalus is my only car, although im torn atm... do i go back to biking now im old enough to afford to insure something decent (probs a 600 bandit as a "comuter" to uni (80 mpg sounds good to me!) and as something to blast to helmsly when i fancy... or do i save the £2k ish it would cost me for bike and insurance and a new lid (mine is a bit tight) and spend it on my TF... hmm watch this space

I use mine for the school run too, If Kelli is going to do the school run in the X-Trail, Jamie has been known to throw a tantrum.....lol one classic quote was "I want to go in daddies car, your car is too boring for me"

Talking about the school run, when my youngest was at her last school (now at college) there was the odd occasion where I took her in my MG ZS when I had a day off. She loved it as it made all the boys look, it was noisy and pops and bangs a bit! :D She always wanted me to drop her off if I was at home.
