Cars

Holden seems to be pretty popular down under.

The Maxima is a very nice ride. Might actually be my next ride.

Holden is owned by Ford iirc.

My dad has company cars up until his current one, so they change every 3 years.

Seat Altea (2005-)
Passat Estate (2002-2005)
Focus Estate (1999-2002)
Rover 640 (1996-1999)

All diesels, my favourite was the Passat Estate, although the current Altea is very nice.

Haha! The Spanish car! I do wish that they sold them here in the US, but you can't have it all .

Mom - VW Passat (02)
Dad - Ford Explorer (97 - he sure loves that thing )
Sister - Audi A4 (06)
Me - Corolla (03)

Seats are very underrated cars.

Too small for Americans

No, it's a gold (they call it Desert Sand Mica) LE . It used to be a rental - you can buy used cars from the rental lots for pretty cheap. It's in good condition, about 31k miles on it. A few scratches here and there, but it gets the job done.

And I believe that Seat is owned by VW, so that would explain the quality (high quality, I mean ). And I wouldn't mind driving one over here - those Alteas really are nice.

M5s are sweet. I'm a 7 series man though, I have to say. My first was a 1990 735i

3.5l Straight Six, 211bhp, 0-62mph: 8.3 seconds, 1,600 kgs


And my current one, which is my pride and joy, is a 1995 750iL.

5.4l V12, 326bhp, 0-62mph: 6.8 kgs, 2,070 kgs

Lol no way. Ford and Holden are huge rivals down here. Holden is owned by General Motors.

Dam! That is one fuel consuming car. Major grunt in it though

Holden owned by Ford? Now THAT is the post of the year!

We now buy a new car every two years because of the warranty and not having to do anything to them in that duration.

Wow, you guys are really into Fords. Or is that just a head-of-the-household-decides-for-everybody thing?
