What do you drive?


Recommended Posts

Insurance is too expensive in the UK so I use public transport :D.

Mate, i grew up in East London, lived there and done that, Central Line was my daily transportation, i mean getting around London whilst driving a car its a bloody nightmare. I didn't have to worry about finding a parking space or insurance rubbish, thats the best thing about public transportation.

2009 Mitsubishi Outlander XLS

huuuuge step up from the Cobalt.

EDIT: It just occurred to me how everyone else has a ridiculously clean vehicle, while mine looks like I put it through a rallyx stage.... maybe I should find a better picture.

2004 BMW X5 4.4i

315hp

18"

Auxiliary input from BMW (1 week before the official iPod hookup came out sad.gif )

You can retrofit those easily. I had the same car with Nav. I had all kinds of mods on it. Not too hard to do.

Just search out IBUS X5 IPOD. Your vehicle uses an I-bus for communication.

I do miss that car. I now have the newer X5 that is hard to make mods to.

Something like this:

It's a 2011, Ford Focus Titanium X 2.0 Diesel (automatic)

I will admit that it is my company car and my own personal Car is a 2003 Pugeot 307 that I will be looking to get rid of soon as i think it may be on its way to the big car park in the sky soon!

My 2012 Trek road bike, it gets infinity to the gallon :) It has over a 1000 miles and its a well built and great riding bike! Oh, I forgot, I drive a 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe and its an excellent suv (not MPG wise) :laugh:

Currently an '92 Mercedes 230CE but I think I'm going to switch to an Audi A8 as it's more spacious, more comfortable and a tad newer. Why I mention spacious is because I'm almost 2m tall and the CE is a bit small for me since I can't regulate the steering wheel height :(

My new car (since March) is a 2013 Mazda 3 R.

In Chile the SkyActiv engine is not available yet (only in the CX-5 and the New Mazda 6), so it has the traditional 150 HP 2.0L 5-speed with paddle shift. Not a economic car, but very fun to drive...

Nice! That's a rareish car these days. My friend drives a 300CE, great car

Silver 2013 Kia Rio.

Nothing fancy, but gets fantastic (~35mpg) gas mileage and really fun to drive with the autostick.

Stock audio is awful though... gotta do something about that. :)

    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.
