What do you drive?


Recommended Posts

1995 White Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 4 Door. Got it for $750, and it runs great!

:rofl:

Same boat as you. 1990 VW Jetta Carat 1.8 4 speed that looks like it has been driven though the sahara in a sandstorm. But hey, I paid $650 for it and it runs great too.

2003 Audi A4 1.8 Turbo Quattro.. Stick shift

Umm I wont list my specs hehe.. Just know all my internals are redone and different turbo.. Along with other minor engine work :)..

Wanna keep it lookin stock :)

Very nice, looking to get something similar myself but probably just in silver. How you finding it? Fuel consumption bearable?

It's awesome. I had to search all VW dealships within 300 miles to find this. Hard to find a 4 door. Fuel is ~21 city, 28 highway. Not bad the way I drive.

My Audi is now far sale. I put my Sensible head on and went to Merc, put my deposit down on a new C200 CDI Sport Triptronic with a few extra's in Metalic Black. Will post pictures when I collect the car.

Will miss my Audi but fueling a 3.0 Petrol engine on an AWD car and getting between 10 and 20 mpg just isnt viable for me anymore, the Merc felt well slow when i test drove it, but still really nice to drive.

I bought my first car this Saturday, and get it today! I am so excited, can't wait!

It's a 2000 Ford Mustang, Silver:

And yes, she's standard. It's the base model, but fully loaded (leather, sunroof). I can't afford the gas on the GT, I go back and fourth from school and home which is 200km quite a few times a year... So the V6 is good enough for me! :p Not only that, but she only had one owner before me, and it was never winter driven... I can't wait!

Nice! You'll like it.... It's just a start, one day a GT will call your feelings....

It already does... It's nothing like a V8, and I'm never going to feel like it is. My real dream is one of those Fox-body 5.0's, like in this Youtube video:

You can say all you want about how that car LOOKS, but close your eyes. There is no way in hell you can say it doesn't sound GOOD.

Regardless, I got the car yesterday, and it's awesome, and I'm really happy with the way it looks and handles. One thing's for sure, though - she's American. The way everything is - the way it shifts (gotta give 'er to the shifter), the rear wheel drive, the 3.8 V6 only pushing 190hp... I grew up on Ford's, and am totally happy with the car.

It cruises like a dream on the highway, which is important.

for me, to be honest, i dont see my self driving private cars, no mater how luxurious / expensive they are, to me it feel's , low, gentle, not in full control, and i feel uncomfortable in them, specialy the jap cars,.(without disrespecting at all, at all.) i think uropeans cars are better.

emm to give example of what i feel about those cars, even if i had the money, i wouldn't buy them, if let's say iv'e won somehow in bmw, or audi r8, i would test them, but, would have sell them, and buy tougher vehicle.(4x4)

i'm more of jeep like vehicless, like wrangler, land cruiser, pajero, offroads trasportation.

never felt more secure than in a cj6 jeep. very simple machinery, but grinding stones.

right now, till my new pajero arrives,(3.2 l, 200hp.) i'm on 4x4 toyota hilux 2003, not the strongest diesel engine, but after really good and deep care, it runs perfectly.

to all of you drivers/drifters, drive safe, and enjoy life. :)

    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
