I use a 61 plate Insignia Sport Nav Tourer 2.2 CDTi in Metallic Diamond Black.
We've had it for nearly 3 years and added nigh on 30K to it, it only had 19K when we bought it.
It is a very comfortable cruiser and it does have some poke in it when you need it.
I do miss using the Xenophobic Kinky Zebra every day but the fuel bill is a tad less now and I do enjoy driving Redward at LOT more now when I do actually get to use it.

We also have a '55 plate StreetKa ICE, which 'Ar Lass bought from new, but I do try to avoid using it as it sounds like it's made out of wood and the brakes are absolutely shocking !!

I'm about to take ownership of a certain beautiful woman's 57 plate Fiesta Zetec 1.4 TDCi (in return I get to buy her a new car ...... go figure that one out, must be love :kiss:)
Will attempt (no laughing at the back) a photo later. It's apparently got the 'climate pack' and comes with the all important heated front screen ...... I like that :thumbs up:

In need of a bit of tlc (anyone know of a local detailer :hand:) and more importantly getting rid of the 'pink seat covers' :blush::phew: & assorted 'girly' stuff.

76K on the clock so looking to nudge this way way over the 100 over the next 4/5 years :yes nod:

Here's my everyday A to B motor, a Skoda Fabia 1.2TSI. Nothing fancy, but it does what it says on the tin, especially if the tin is labelled "Understeers in the damp" (it's not THAT bad). It's actually a decent wee motor, smooth on the road, plenty of room for a small car, well made and fairly economical. The 'Quiksilver' decal in the back window is a surfing gear thing, and also an ironic reference to the colour and performance :smilewinkgrin: To be honest it's nippy enough for what it is.
I'm pretty happy with it anyway :thumbs up:

In the last 6 months I've gone from a VW UP! to a Volvo V50 R Design to an Alfa Romeo Guilietta - I must stop changing cars......so far I'm pleased with the Alfa, it's the 2.0 JDM with 170bhp so a big improvement on the 1.0 3cyl UP. Now a VRS estate (daddy wagon) not sure how I'll get on with this one as I've got my eye on a 7 series......

My two classic minis and my R50 are being kept as the garage queens (or the R50 will be after I fully restore it) so the daily is this 120D M Sport Plus.

Cracking colour - I'm familiar with the M Sport but what does the M Sport Plus have in addition ? you don't see many of them in this colour , normally Estoril Blue, but I've seen a couple of Z4's in the orange. Very nice :thumbs up:

M sport plus gives the 4 pot brakes, Harman Kardon Hi-Fi and the dark rear glass.

Here's my daily hack at the moment, mainly 'cos it's an auto, so I can drive it until my ankle is fixed.
I've had it from new since Aug 2010.
It had a Revo Technik stage 1 remap in Jan '14, so it's got a bit more oomph!
Very pleased with it, stealthmobile.

He detailed it the day I picked it up, but I'm up there quite regularly as I also share the unit for working on my Mini.

Ah nice, Lewis and I know each other pretty well, used to work with him many moons ago and delighted to see he's finally putting his skills to good use. Both Kirsten's Skoda and my F56 will be regular visitors I think...my detailing days are over for the time being with two little ones on the go.
