Is your 75 a daily or 2nd car? - Page 5

My 75 Diesel is my daily runner and the V6 for weekends.....or that was the plan

Trouble is I enjoy driving the V6 auto more and this plan has gone out the window

My 75 contemporary se auto is my daily drive as only have one car. Drove to Birmingham the weekend and my father in law commented on how much of a beautiful drive it was so comfortable and quite for a diesel. Managed to get 48 mpg will full car load.

I bought my 75 diesel auto last August as my daily driver. My wife has a little Peugeot for her use. I have done nearly 17,000 miles in the 75 since August and love it and it is a great workhorse and towcar too.

Daily, average over 8 years, 20k a year

My 1.8 Connie is my daily car covering easily 15/20k miles a year proven to be reliable so far! Now on 110k

I intend to put my 75 away in the garage for the winter and use the 45 TD conni saloon I have during the winter months.

That's the plan, but still lots to do to get the 45 ready for its mot ...

Depends on where we are going and what is needed. if I am on my own then I will more often take the MGF even shoping but if I need to get Mother somewhere she finds it easier to get into and out of the 75.

Only have my Rover 75 1.8 connie, Used daily very pleased, now done 69,900 miles. This year was a bit expensive, New Tyres, New back box, all advisories done, new ht leads and plugs, new coils, usual oil and filter change. Running good, just been up to Derbyshire and back again.

My ZT-T is my works car so is used pretty much 24/7 i have already done 8k miles in 4 months of owenership.
She's had coilovers, a new clutch and some new bushes in those 4 months too.

My RS6 is a weekender, the two Type R's i have get used for track time and occasional use at the weekend.
The B5 A4 is just the work horse if i need to tow something or take something to the tip or go on a road trip for car parts.
Our lass also uses it for work,

My superbly comfortable daily driver, oh and it's the family car so does the salt mine run day in day out and never seems to complain
