My 2004 Ford Ranger is my principal mode of transportation. V 6 petrol engine. Part time 4X4 (electronic shift), 4spd manual w/OD (No wussmatics for this member ) The truck is loaded down for work and the revolving light is a magnet mount, so it can be taken off if I don't need it.



My most recent acquisition, a 2009 Yamaha WR250R that I bought new this spring. (Surplus stock) Too bad it's been a cruddy summer weather wise.

It was funny, a few months ago I was actually looking at the brand new Sentra's and Versa's but when I saw this at the dealership, I knew I had to have this. Plus, I dont like the way the new Nissan's look but hey, who cares, a used car is just as good as a new car anyways.

I own a 2004 Renault Kangoo for tax reasons. Commercial vans from 2004 or before were excluded from purchase tax, which saves 42% of the price. I only had to pay VAT (19%). It is also cheap in insurance (all-risk) and road tax.

I wanted to drive a post-2003 turbodiesel car because of my mileage, and I wanted airconditioning. I eventually bought this Renault Kangoo over 2 years ago. I've driven 47.000 kilometers in the past 27 months with it.

Honda Accord 1.8 (y. 2000) with complete equipment and 255.000 km currently. It still has some years to serve me. Next one will almost certainly be an Accord too, of course not new.
