| I called her Poppy, unkind people called it a road whale or a land yacht. Especially trying to park it, I'd own another one but there's nowhere to put it. |

Land yacht :haha: I like it.
Sounds like you need a bigger garage Lilith! Or to sell one of your cars :p |

Well I sold the MX5, 4 months to do up, 6 months of teaching HRH how to use a manual, lol oh well. :o
The little grey Corolla is next on the block, but that's going to be a hard decision, such a well mannered car that never gives us any trouble and uses almost nothing in fuel, so horridly ugly and boring though. But I still use it a lot, so it'll stay until I get fed up with it... run off and buy something unreliable and foolish again.
Course, finding a house with a 3 car garage will set me back the better side of 2.5-3 in this part of town. |

You've still got the Mitsubishi? |

HRH has a Mitsubishi Outlander too now which is quite nice and thank goodness she didn't buy a 2nd hand BMW. Not sure what to do with mine, the Mitsubishi Racing spec is very rare, there was less than 500 of them ever made so I'll probably just leave it there in its stock set up and maybe use it about once a week.
We will be taking it to Bathurst this weekend to see my uncle & aunt, watch the race on TV, drink and eat to excess :p |

| I gather that HRH refers to your girlfriend/wife, but does that stand for 'Her Royal Highness'? If so: :stongue: |

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what she meant by it :p |

Girlfriend. She's a bit precious sometimes and I'm an intolerable tyrant, which is why I hide down here on the internet rather than risk a coup d'état |

My Holden will most likely need to go in for service soon so I was thinking about trying out a new car if one is available.
Should I try the new Ford Falcon or the Toyota Aurion? Perhaps I can get the Ford Mondeo but the boot space might be a bit small. |

I'd probably go for the Toyota, but I'm not really basing that on anything. Fuel economy, maybe? I dunno. |

| Yea the Aurions are by all reports the best cars at the moment. The reason why I'm thinking Ford is because our fleet cars are Aurions so I'll eventually end up in an Aurion anyway. |
