What do you drive?

lol at the bus!!

I've got a Mazda Tribute (awesome with sunroof etc) for the Mrs & weekends, and I drive a 97 Mitsubishi Lancer MR. It only gets used for work and therefore has almost 300,000 on the clock from driving to Sydney and back every day for ten years. It's been an awesome car right from the showroom except the paintwork is fucked. There's rust spreading all over the roof from the faulty rollbars inside not to mention patches elsewhere where the paint is fading and 'wearing away'. I'm hanging out for a massive hailstorm, and that's when the Insurance man will help me pay for a new mini or something. My next car will be ace.

But my real pride and joy is a red Suzuki SV650S:

Any time not spent on my baby is more time I'll regret wasting on my death-bed.

The novelty of a 250cc wore off in less than a month...

Kreghor - Out of curiousity, how much did you pay for your VX SS?

Kreghor · Post by **Kreghor** » 25 May 2007 12:22 pm

Paid 23 grand + on road costs. A bit high for the age, but due to the low Km's and the fact that the car was in the same condition it was when it came off the factory floor.

It's a bit more expensive to run than my old car, but it's a hell of a lot more fun!

Isn't that the whole point of having a SS?

So, when you're trying to impress, your car is just a few years old (2000).

But when you're selling and the truth must be told, it turns out to be a relic built last century! (1999)

LIAR!

They tell me its badged as 99/2000.Had I got it prior to November of 99...it would have been badged as 99.So technically it's either or.

The rego sticker says 1999...the stamp in the manual says 99/2000.It's two months anyway.I bought it in Oct 99 and it was delivered with ten K's on the clock in the first week of November.Also,we bought two that year,one in june...it was significantly different(mainly the interior had been improved on my model).
