What is your everyday car ?

[aj.lec]

My runaround is a 1989 Suzuki Swift ,shortly to be replaced and the wife drives our 1996 Ford EL Futura wagon

Mine's a 03 Mitsubishi Pajero diesel with 225,000km on it. But have had a lot of different cars before it including Wolseley 4/44, Morris Oxford MO, some 15 Morris Minors of all types except the ragtop, and for a couple of years back in the mid-70s it was this CMP Sigvan, extremely reliable (and fun) thing it was too.



My first car was a 1959 Singer Gazelle Estate which I bought from my cousin for $25.00

Here it is on the site, or at least the sedan version:



I was a little sorry mine wound up absolutely rusted out after reading in an English magazine the estate version was 'ultra-rare'. I still have it. A few years ago it had become home to a black snake which had come in through a convenient rust hole in the floor and could sun itself on the dash.

I wish.

But it was on loan, sadly, was sold in the early 80s and I believe is now in Far North Queensland of all places in a museum.

I hope to visit it mid-next month to see if it is the one.
