A genuine Limited Edition if it has full leather. Makes a change, every man and his dog with a Miami/Sorrento 205 GTi calls it a "Limited Edition" when it's blatantly untrue! The LE ones all had full leather and PAS amongst other things. Looks like a non-sunroof model too? Nice car.

Thanks

The steering is still quite heavy for the initial turn even
with PAS, must have been a primitive Peugeot system

The leather is pretty nice, and the front seats contrary to
mosts opinion on leather hold you pretty well. The backs on
the other hand are pretty much useless.

I've got the day off tomorrow so I'll take a few photos as
the previous ones are from last summer.

My mum drives a Golf V6 4 Motion :cool:

My old man is at the tail end of his mid-life crisis, and pootles along in a Tuscan, or in a Toyota Landcruiser Colorado.

I recently bought him a two day track & road course for his retirement - should be fun seeing him throw the TVR about.

My dad's Lancia. I think he's getting rid of it soon though

lets see dad drives a discovery series 2, wouldnt mind really
his gf drives a 206, again not bothered, bar the fact it has a rather strange custom plate that puts me off

mum has a mazda 323...not a chance
her bloke has a nissan 200sx, would love to drive it really

Mum doesn't drive, but my dad sees it fit to own 5 pieces of transportation :confused:

He has a '00 Rover 75, a '99 MGF, a '69 MGC GT, a Honda Glodwing GL1500 & a '84 Kawasaki GPZ900R.

Frankly he's greedy, but in fairness the MGC is off the road, as is the 'kwacka. I would be more than happy to drive/ride either of them, I just need to pass my ruddy test!!

Mum: Lexus IS200

Dad: Holden Monaro V8

Although I posted right at the beginning of this thread, I think Ishould add a bit more detail:

Dad - Morgan +8 4.6 tuned to 275bhp
Dad - 1996 Land Rover 90 County Station Wagon
Mum - Mazda RX8 190

Dont really mind any of them tbh.

Dad - 2004 04 Rover 75 2.0 CDTi Connoisseur SE Estate (post facelift)

Mum - 2001 51 Vauxhall Astra 1.4 16V LS

I'd be happy to drive either

Good, I've often wondered if its frowned on as I work away and often don't post for 2 - 3 days at a time, hence plenty of possible bumps!
