it's a great  balance

one gas guzzler
one economy

green is cool
I have a green jazz - everybody calls it 'Robbies car'- I call it the green jazz - until the son wants to loan it, then it's 'Mum's car and No'!

Sorry Unicorn. It's HQ to HZ for me -purely subjective but I think the round headlights look better.
Here is my work vehicle.

Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

Unicorn

Very nice Jeff !!! Premier nose too! (I like Q's but I was partial to the HZ's for their twin lights) ........ your engine bay is starting to scare me though!!! (I'm a points and plugs man .... though the WB is an electronic points unit)

You are also running original plates by the looks?

noice
green mean machine!!

our holden the 'chick magnet' was a Kingswood
BRIGHT yellow
only got flogged once
but we got it back - the kids who pinched it didn't know how to drive a manual or double the clutch, so it appeared to have remained in 1st gear til it was dumped in a driveway a few burbs away  & not torched which happens so often here in the ACT

trout

While we are doing car pic's , Here are our clunkers :ok:

OMG I know exactly what you are talking about. I once sewed curtains for my WB panelvan and got very embarrassed when I stalled (and flooded) the V8 LX Torana on the only roundabout in town!

That was many a time ago.

They only need replacing about every 4-5 years and having skinny tyres on a 4wd is like putting a sail on a ski boat :laugh2:

Sadly they weren't purple. A blue panel van and a white Torana. My car now isn't even purple.

Who needs a purple car when your soul is purple?
