What cars do your parents have?

Dad: 2011 Focus 2.0 TDCI 140 titanium with some extras
Mum: 2010 Fiesta 1.25 [82] zetec with some extras

We have had a lot of Fords. Dad's previous cars were a 1988 1.6 Orion which was his own, but after that he had company cars - 1995/1996/1998/2001/2001/2005 Mondeos.
Mum's last car was a 2007 Corsa SXI and it was riddled with problems - We ripped her continuously until she swapped it and she has since learnt that Fords>Vauxhalls.

Mr parents are the Honda family, pretty much. 80% accords (6 or 7 iirc), civics, a jazz that got sold within 6 months new (expensive mistake lol), a legend and an s2000 sold a few years back.

Current car is a new shape accord 2.4i type-s. Quite like it, very good all rounder but not the one for me.
 
My step dad drives a mk 5 diesel Golf GT. Mum drives a baby blue Fiat 500 of some desciption (on PCP no less. Won't somebody think of the children!?!?). Sad really as my step dad has gone Caymen>E39 535 and now a diesel Golf for his 7 mile trip to and from work each day.
 
I push the jap **** onto mine as they had Renaults for years, they had an indestructable Toyota Paseo 1.5 ST for about 6/7 years and have had a 2007 Mazda 3 1.6 for the last couple of years
 
R Reg - Toyota Avensis CDX 2.0 prolly one of the 1st Avensis ever in the UK still going strong.

51 Reg - VW Golf SE 1.6 totally awful , and no ends of problems almost since day one, but my folks have put up with it even each time it starts up it says engine check , oil check and EPC comes on ... its only done 47K ... ill get them to fix it eventually.
 
Dad:
2010 - Land Rover Defender - Farm work horse
2011 - Audi A1 - Small run around

Mum:
2011 - Land Rover Freelander

Step dad has a 2011 Audi A6 diesel and a 2004 996 C4S, although the latter is being sold and will be gone in a few weeks :(

Mother has a 54 plate 1.2 Clio Extreme that is anything but. Shame she has no interest in cars and is a pretty nervous driver as I think my step dad would love to get her a fun little thing like a 197 that he could borrow now and again :p
 
Dad: 07 plate Audi A4 2.0TDi SE Avant
Mum: 58 plate VW Golf 1.9TDi

Mum was going to get a petrol car as she does little mileage, but went for the devil's fuel as last time we had cars with different fuels, my dad kept forgetting and brimming the diesel one with petrol :/
 
Mum: 1994 Mk1 Eunos Roadster 1.8i J-Ltd-2

Dad: 1996 Mitsubishi Shogun GLS 3.0 V6-24 petrol/LPG
and a 1967 Ford Anglia 105E with 1.8 Subaru running gear - linky

Step-mum: 2008 Hyundai Getz 1.4 petrol/LPG
 
My auld man has a 2 year old Peugeot 207 Sport which he uses for his driving school. For weekend blasts he has a 1978 MG Midget. And a Biggles scarf. :D

Father-in-law has a Ford Focus. And a BMW K1200S. :cool:

Neither mum or mum-in-law drive.

My parents have got a 2006 Renault Kangoo. Their cars have been a fairly constant source of disappointment to me for about as long as I can remember - it's a shopping list of the bland and the mediocre, even the cars that were vaguely interesting weren't particularly good examples of the type (Austin Mini, Renault 5, Peugot 205) because they invariably pick the most underpowered one possible.
