:( @ the thought of someone's Mum owning one of those
Tell me about it, her idea of 'revving' it is ~4000rpm :(

Me and my dads idea of 'revving' it is the 6000rpm redline, luckily it does see that whenever someone else drives it :D

My mum drives a Mazda2, not exactly the nicest looking car on the planet but beggars can't be choosers :)

Two opposite ends of the scale here..
Mum - Daewoo Matiz 1L
Dad - Jaguar XJ6 4L

Rarely have to go in either but I'd rather not go in my mum's matiz.

Dad: VW Sharan 2.0 CL 96' (Mainly for the job as everything fits in the boot, with the 2 rear seats out, in a specially made box that he constructed, and still room for 5 people) :)

Mum: Ford Mondeo 1.9 (i think) 98'

2004 VW Passat Highline TDi

It's on a lease scheme so will be replaced in 12 months. I drive it quite a lot and am pretty impressed with it.

Decent build
Decent economy
Comfy
Spacious
Reasonably brisk

He's not really interested in cars though it does it's job well and is handy when I need to take more than one passenger or carry big stuff.

54 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4L
04 Mercedes CLK 320 Avantgarde Cabriolet

Not really got a car each, they drive them both(Mum also has a 1970ish MGB-GT, however its consigned to the garage!)

Would happily drive either, if they'd let me! :(

My dad drives a 54 plate Rover 75..I'd have to check what engine is in it. Very nice car though.

His girlfriend drives a Suzuki Vitara 2.0 V6, but that is in the garage at the moment and may never return :(
