What Do You Drive?

[Sass]

i'm staying out of this one

[R32gts-t]

ok, well it seems that there is an even spread amongst the people, some drive their skylines and some have less than adventurous daily weapons :S ...

the legacy wagon is a cool and different idea, and the camira is well umm yeah.....

Dane: I would normally steer clear of french build cars but the gti6 has grown and grown on me, i always liked the vr6 golfs but they are somewhat thirsty and getting a bit old compared to the pug, I know the seating position is a bit strange to say the least as i've driven the older 205gti and the newer 206gti both which are a pretty fun car to drive,

i have to sell another car before i can go shopping though. keep the thread going, it seems like a winner

[Bass Junky]

I drive my line every single day.

If I don't drive it over the weekend, I feel special getting back in it on Monday.

You won;t be dissapointed with a 306 gti-6 man! Take a look at aussiefrogs.com, and the gti-6 owners club in the UK for some more info if you need it.

I tossed up between the VR6 and the GTi-6 and obviously ended up going the VR6 route, but either would be a great choice, and the pug would certainly cost less to keep on the road.

As for 205GTi's... I will own one as soon as I have somewhere to put it! Tarmac rally 205... mmmmmmm

[Sass]

yay, no stabs at me! hehe

i still say, go the rolla!!!

[phunky_monkey]

You just watch yourself Sarah...

[Sass]

i'll be good

[Snowman]

The blue one is the toy and the red one is the daily and back up toy!

Super Duper Hatch FTW.

[CrispyFries]

I drive my skyline everyday, and will do the same with it's replacement, though initially that won't be as fun.

[doug3rd]

I drive the R31 line to work and the R32 line on the weekends...

Love the 32 but don't like risking leaving in the street. (The r31 was hit and run)

r31 is getting a bit tired though... needs complete suspension work over. (engine runs well @ 260,000km)

So I have the same problem...what do I do?

Spend $1500+ fixing the r31?

or sell it and spend another $4000 - $8000 on a tow vehicle/daily driver

[R32gts-t]

haha, yeah i have been browsing those forums for a while now, just reading up.

that little 205 is sick:

I have a couple of friends who have pugs or have had in the past, including a 93ish 205 gti series 3 limited edition with leather and a few factory options, he told me buyer beware, if things break on pugs they break properly and, for example you should budget approx 1200-1800 for a clutch (incl install) that is a lot of coin, i wouldn't spend that on my nissan let alone daily frog breath hatchback. i've still got a while to go before i will be buying so knowing me i'll change my mind another 10 times.

I drive my GTR every day, wouldnt change that for the world

GTR becomes toy when I can afford 911 turbo

A replacement clutch for a gti-6 is around $900 from peugeot, excluding labour I think, but if you shop around you can pick one up for about $400 I think. The gearbox would be my biggest concern, replacement cost is 7k... ouch

A Sorrento 205 would be nice, but 90% are clagged by now...

[R32gts-t]

yeah but how cool is the idea of a tiny little hatch with a 6 speed box, if the box is genuinely worth 7k it'd want to be half decent and unbreakable with standard power... well maybe a chip and remus and intake...springs...swaybar..sticky tyres, see i'm at it again, cars aren't cool at all.

Who is a whore now?

I have a poo brown 79 Gemini.

The odometer is on its 5th way round and its great for knocking over bins and going over speed humps without slowing down.

Hahahah classic, reminds me of my mates oldschool Range Rover that we used to take for late-night "Bin Runs"

I doubt you'd have too many troubles man, but something to keep in mind if it does happen. If you want to drive one I'm sure he'll be cool with letting you take it for a spin.

haha it's never ending man... I wasn't supposed to mod the clubbie either...but...you know...

He has induction, eibachs, remus and a system so far, and soon rims and new clutch. A few little mods and the car has come alive.

[skylinegirl]

I used to drive my r32 to work everyday, but now I drive my r31 which is more economical...
