Bus what ? Never heard that phrase before. HahaHaven’t had a car for a couple of years. Walk to work, train days out and a bit of bus wankering have made it possible.
Am looking at getting a vintage Vw Beetle circa late 60’s early 70’s in the next 12 months and incorporating it as a hobby. My son in law is a mechanic so we are looking together for a decent motor and with his support I intend to maintain and care for it like a baby

Just googled it as you were replying. You learn something new everyday.The Inbetweeners
I’m making it a project. I won’t drive it to work and I intend to learn about the basics of car maintenance and treat it like a work of art as much as a vehicleWould love to do that! You need to spray it tangerine though!
Thanks for the advice Yep, I intend to do my research, will check out Volks World. Thank youI’m sure you will, but make sure you take a good look underneath. Just so your son in law doesn’t have to spend too much time welding or even replacing the floor pan. Start buying Volks World to give you some ideas of how you might want to customise or restore it (then take it to Bug Jam next year )

I have had 4. The best tow car I’ve ever had.We've had the 'first car' thread but what about the car you now drive?
2015 Nissan X-Trail 2.5 4x4 in midnight blue metallic. I've owned over 50 cars and must say that this is amongst the best of them.
Audi A4 Black Edition and again nice considerate driver who shares the road with all users equallyBMW 3 series - it comes with working indictors and the driver's not an arrogant arse
Bob I was in the market for a Land cruiser but picked up a 17 year old XTrail midnight blue 2.2 diesel for 1200 quid. Initially just as a holding measure but im really getting to like it. It even has the lion hunting lights in the roof bars which are a must round West Kirby at nightWe've had the 'first car' thread but what about the car you now drive?

I can vouch that Seasideone will cheerfully get a cab from the ground to the BloomfieldI have not owned a car for about 8 or 9 years and do not miss driving.
I rely on Grab (Asian version of Uber), where you can get picked up in premium cars for about the same price as a taxi - unless it’s a really peak time when prices go up dramatically!!
Grab also brings you food, and will even send a moped to pick up anything you forgot when shopping from the garage or even M&S etc!!
It’s a fantastic App and service.
