Fun - although it very rarely gets driven at the moment

There's the Rapido and the Derbi, both of them are great for quick errands, cheap on fuel, and good for getting places quick, since you can use bike paths, which are plenty


There's the Inca, and the Iveco, which are mostly used for hauling stuff

Also, the Inca isn't exactly the greatest in comfort(you can feel it has done over 1 million, kilometers)so for longer trips, the Iveco is the better choice.

And for an almost 2-tonne heavy van, 9l/100km definitely isn't too bad


It's size is also it's downside, as it's a whopping 3 meters tall, and about 6 meters long

Been driving this all week, brake lights have stopped working so I’m back in the Jag on monday. Gave it a clean anyway…

How are you finding the ML? They keep winking at me and some of them seem quite reasonably priced nowadays. Had a 2005 350 which was a fantastic motor, shouldn't have sold it.

Best mate at work has had a 62 plate with the v6 diesel in it for 2 years now. Only trouble he has had with it was a malfunctioning alarm. Other wise seems very good.

It’s a GL320 3.0 v6 diesel - basically a bigger 7 seater ML with air suspension and more off road toys

Had it almost 3 years and it’s been pretty good 

A lot of the fixes are on internet so daft as it sounds their a pretty good DIYers car 

my son has a good code reader which tbf I’ve only had to borrow a couple of times 

apparently people have issues with the Bluetec versions but as mine is NOT  Bluetec I can’t really comment

I am currently driving a Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4.

It's black and I'm sick of the weather.

Tell us more please.  Space in the back? Is it practical?

395 litre boot expanding to 1600 with a pretty flat floor but minimal underfloor space, decent room for four adults,  but curved seat back on front seats may not play as nicely with child seats as you'd hope, very nice up front, I can drive it in New Rock boots.

With the Volvo out this is currently my daily

That's lovely. The colour looks very similar to Volkswagen's Monza blue which was a limited run on 86/87 Mk2 Golf GTIs. Do you know what VAG called it for yours?

Oceanic Blue is its name, though Ocean Blue is sometimes used

It's a bit grim today but I went out fording streams and huge puddles anyway.

I didn't really go anywhere other than for a drive.
