branse, i got a question for you...

myself and another guy from the unit i was deployed with were both really into Gran Tourismo 4 (ps2). when we werent on mission, we were playing games. well, we would get so irritated at each other because of one thing...

how the hell do you pronounce Peugeot? is it Peu-jet or peu-go? or are we both wrong. i would say it Jet, he would so go...

>.<

Hi, Guys i may as well respond to this.. I'm 33 with three kids, 5, 3, 1
I've owned many car..

Ford
Nissan x2 ( have one now )
Holden (GMH)
Mazda
Subaru
Toyota
And finally
VOLVO
Which was/is the best...
Well i must say that the Subaru was a bloody good car (forester 98 model) could not kill that thing with a Grenade!!! very reliable 145,000km on the clock never saw a drop of oil on the garage floor, Cant say the same for the VOLVO....(must investigate).
Although the VOLVO is one well built car.. I had to settle for a happy medium between family car and beast ! V70 turbo Does just fine....
Thanks
Jamie..
P.S . TECH YOU SHOULD BUY A TELEVISION MATE!!! 4 KIDS...32 YEARS OLD....

Well now, I am old enough to be most everyones dad. 67 and counting.

My first car was a '41 Plymouth business coupe with the hugest trunk I ever saw. [:-]

I can't remember all of the ones in between but they include several pre '56 chrysler products, a '61 valiant wagon with a 170 engine that was probably the best buy I ever made - I sold it sometime in the '80s with 265k miles on it - a '60 or '61 rambler I got from my parents, a 62? Tempest with an incredibly strong ohv 6 cyl. engine, a '65 Fury with the 318 engine, a 144 that I lost to an ex wife - although my oldest son bought it back from her a couple of years later, a Monte Carlo of a vintage I can't recall, and probably 10 or 20 others along the way.

I now have a '73 P1800ES, a "91 740 turbo wagon, a '95 850 turbo wagon and an older 1982 Chevy one ton dually to drag my 5th wheel trailer around.

I just joined today and had to add something to this topic.

Thirty eight and bought the V70 to drag the creature around. She is my avatar. We bought the wagon because the other dog(wifes dog, a lab) ate her Mountaineer. The wagon is easier on the old dogs.
