These two are the vehicles that are truly MINE, like, belon to me contractually:

http://www.swedishcollection.nl/lay/cars/480TurboAutPrototype.jpg
Mine's black, like the one in the first pic.

And, my crow jewel:

The trunk is a box model, though, like so:

Also, my dream cars:

A Pontiac Trans Am, like so:
http://www.loti.com/60s_muscle_cars/Pontiac-Muscle/PONTIAC_TRANS-AM-14.JPG

A Chrysler PT Cruiser, like so:
http://www.automedia.com/NewCarBuyersGuide/photos/2006/Chrysler/PT%20Cruiser/SUV/2006_Chrysler_PTCruiserSUV_ext_1.jpg

A Convertible Mini Cooper, like so:

All three of them black, like pictured.

I hate sport cars.

My dad has a dark blue PT Cruiser. Love that car. We all hated it at first cause we thought it looked like one of those hearse cars or something. But I love its look now. =3

No idea what my dream car would be, but probably something small like the Mini Cooper, New Beetle or a Smart car or something. I don't know much about cars so I don't know what else is out there. X3

I actually like the look of smart cars too, though I'd rather not crash in one. My dream car is probably a new Mini. I love them.

It also has a GameCube, a TV, and a Dreamcast.. and fairy lights, rigged up in the back. It rules.

I have a Corsa, nothing exciting but it gets me from A to B and back.

I was never much of a sports car fan until my friends dad took me out in his Lotus Elise and it was super fun. Almost pointless for driving on the road though. But if I had the Top Gear track in my back garden I'd buy some kinda of performance car.

I'd love some thing quirky like the Carver

The only annoying thing about the bike is the engine warming. If you don't warm it up, 5/10 it won't start. So you have to wait 5 mins for it to warm up. Kinda defeats the purpose of having a fast(ish) bike.

Those Smart Roadsters are pretty cheap, well, they're expensive for what you get but 2nd hand they don't set you back too much.

I'm currently only using my car once every couple of weeks, almost certainly getting close to selling it and buying something I can just have for fun. I really don't need the practicalness of it at all.

My Corsa. Love that car.
How old is that Corsa? I learnt in a Corsa and really liked it, so comfortable to drive. Although at one point I drove a similar model but a diesel with a smaller engine and that was a lot worse. Still, if I have a bit of money in a couple of years I'll probably trade in for something like the above.

Today my Ka started struggling changing down to 4th... no idea why. It can change up, but not down. Basically fails to get in gear and I have to skip to 3rd instead, which can't be doing my car any good. Little bit disappointed with it so far but it was about all I could afford. Was meant to be driving home to Sheff along the M180 and M1 on the 3rd, but with the gear issues I might not be able to :nono:

I have a 1992 VW Polo Fox. It looks terrible, but runs really well, tbh i prefer it to the corsa I learnt in. I only passed my test in July, so I got it as it's really cheap to insure and is no great loss to motoring history if I crash it.

I will get my first year no claims in july, and assuming my income is still about the same I really want the volvo 480 like Oxigen_waste has

These two are the vehicles that are truly MINE, like, belon to me contractually:

It's from 2003. The suspension is fairly hard so going over speed bumps can be a bit annoying. I'm not sure if thats just the SXi/SRi models though as I think they have sports suspension. The interior looks nicer on those models though, and I think they have more comfortable seats.
This is the current state of mine though:
