Here on Planet Nihon.
Shank's pony AKA two feet and a heartbeat.
The train.

If we can't get to it on foot or by train, then it's an old Nissan March.
My wife does the driving.

Back on Planet Oz, the future vehicle will be an old diesel 4WD Holden Rodeo twin cab ute, with a big F.O. 'roo bar, winch and CB radio.

Looking forward to stenciling icons for the dead rabbits, cats, dogs, foxes and other feral vermin I run over onto the doors.

Not a car as such, but a 1962 Izh Jupiter 350cc 2 cylinder 2 stroke with domed pistons for higher compression, the kickstart slaps you back like a mule if not careful.

An old picture of her, dont realy use the sidecar, but have a machine gun mount for it.

oooh! I learned to drive in one of those... 3.5L v8 with carbs mmmm.

My oil burner disco tilts the bonnet with the torque, but he old rangie v8 practically turned itself on its roof. And the noise! Straight through pipes v8 burble until you gave it some stick; those were the days. Out in the middle east it cost about 15 dinars to fill up - the only real reason I didn't get a v8 here is that with the cost of fuel I'd only be able to drive it about once every 6 months, despite the advantage of v8's having less mileage and wear on a second hand buy.

It's my first luxury car so I can't compare it to anything else. Ride is a bit hard while off highway...but it has a lot of nifty things like heated / cooled seats, rear camera etc. ...and I get a lot of complements from folks.

My first car was a 97 Mazda 323 Protege, good car and served me well until I traded her in last year for an 08' Ford Focus. The Focus is my first car bought and paid for with my own money. Now she's nearly a year old and still going strong.

Many people say it, but I actually laughed out loud at that.

That would be a very cool machine to have over here in the states.

1st generation Jupiters are pretty rare, But you might be able to turn something up in the states. Though you would probably have better luck tracking down a 2nd generation model.
