My father is actually dead, so it's far from daddies car.
Not my parents lol, actually it's my fiance's car, and that's our house behind. I only passed my driving 2 years ago. But its the only car I drive. Don't jump to the wrong assumption mate, just ask, can always tell students a mile off .

I'd have absolutely no reason to lie or bend the truth in any way, shape or form. It is not of my interest to do this, I was simply taking part in a discussion that is all.

I was not assuming anything other than in fact you do have access to said car and can regularly use it. First off I merely pointed out time/date and battery on your camera, then I pointed out it's a 'your car' not 'car I have access to' thread. From that I don't see how you assumed I thought you don't have access.

The only reason you know I'm a student is due to my profile.

You are 24 and are engaged to be married to somebody with a £100,000 car?!

It ain't the size, it's how you drive it.

She'll be trading in the bland Porsche for a French Fail in no time.

In the case of your Saxo, you've lost on both accounts.

It was cheap and is just a 1.1 that doesn't swallow petrol. For a first car, it does me fine.

I do regret not getting the 1.8 TD Fiesta though as the insurance was the same.

It does, but it's not a Porsche beater by any stretch of the imagination.

No, you don't, you're glad you didn't get a rattley sluggish diesel.

Destruction Derby perhaps.

Actually, not that either. It's no more than a tin coffin.

Instead, I've got a rattley sluggish petrol.

Engine isn't as bad and rattley as a diesel...I hope!

Anyway, on topic...

In that case it would be nice for you to post some proper pictures and a review etc since we all love cars and i'm sure the other porsche nuts would love to hear and talk about ones they've owned, good reason to break in a new camera if you go for the D90

Very good point, but all the same I work for other things out of my own pocket.

TBH, it's obvious that I, and others in this thread are just showing a hint of jealousy. It really is a lovely car, although for that money I wouldn't buy a Porsche simply because of the image it carries.
