Citroen relay converted to 8 seater - not alot i can say about this thing.
ford focus estate - bland boring car.
Nissan micra - under powered and i have to sit with my knees each side of the wheel.
citroen c4 - strange car to drive speedo is in the middle of the dash, rev counter is in the middle of the steering wheel which does not move with the wheel, and the cruise control has two settings one which you still have to use the peddle but will only let you go as fast as the set speed, the first time i drove it someone had left it on this one i set it at 60 on single track road got to dual carriage way put my foot down and the bloody thing would not move any quicker.

have left the best to last 2.5 v6 elite

Mrs H has a lowered Fiat Marea 2l 20v with full body kit!  Rattles your teeth over the bumps.

Real good fun.  Just like a go kart.

Al Omegas for me.

I got one, SWMBO's got one and the banger I'm taking to Naples is one.

I also have a 24v Carlton GSI, but that's far from roadworthy and doesn't currently run due to the lack of a distributor.

Luckily I have a fleet of cars available to me at work and depends on the mood I am in!

'05 Ford Focus 1.9 TDCI Estate - Surprisingly quick (not like the MV6 though) and resonable handling
'02 Mercedes Vito Van - Good in a straight line but that is about it
'06 Ford Fiesta - Not my first choice but still it is very nippy
and believe it or not, an electric moped (which is clearly my favourite as performance is remarkable)

Just sold my own '99 4.0l Jeep Cherokee and '94 2.5V6 Omega CDX (leather and manual model) in order to buy my '00 MV6 and a Transit Van (though haven't bought the van yet - still shopping for one)

Thank for the offer but I am looking for a very cheap and cheerful transit van as it will spend days sitting in laybys when I am out mountain biking. Don't want to leave the MV6 unattended!

As to my work cars, I don't pay for them and I do have to share them with other people! Well not the moped, that is for my use only

Actually they are all pretty dull after the MV6, however I have to say I am a fan of the Mercedes Vito.
