What's everyone driving these days

[dave_xsara]

Just called in to see what is happening in here. Still going in my '01 Xsara. Mustn't be many of us left on the road at this stage. Just hit 215k. Engine still going strong, but the body is a different story.

Sills are continually a headache at MOT time and rear arches are bubbling rust too. Looks like the end is nigh for it if it needs major work. Rattle/knock in front of driver that has never been located.
So, what's everyone else driving these days. Have to say, the Citroen range these days is not attracting me so looks like it will be another marque for me this time.

508 is a possibility - what are they like?

I'm guessing that most of you are now running non-Citroen's as daily drivers now?

Quite right for me Dave. When my last C5 expired I needed a quick replacement and couldn't find a petrol C5 immediately so I bought the Subaru Legacy as a stop gap while still looking. Over 2 years later I am still looking but have found the Legacy to be a very good car for a variety of reasons and hence although my C5 searches are still active I am unlikely to change even if one does come up, unless it has all the bells and whistles and very low mileage!! My fun car is the MX3 which I take to shows etc and generally enjoy driving!

I'm currently driving everyone round the twist. On account of toothache.

Overly complicated and fiddly - there's a few members here with 508 and multiple issues at present. But then later vehicles bring a whole new load of problem baggage with them - so swings and roundabouts.

Thanks for that - I'll give them a swerve then as I would be looking at an older one.

I've gone electric with a Renault Zoe 2014, servicing for the last 20 months has been top up the screenwash and check the tyre pressures, two passed mots without fault.
