Mine was used for everything when wife had a small car.

Shes just got a new qashqai, so mine is just used for my work/pottering about now.

Wifes car or motorbike at weekends

not really sure what category mine would fall under i brought it on a whim and just loved it my other car is a British racing green 1998 xjr witch probably gets more use but strangely it has never won my heart quite like the 190 its hard to say why just for me the zt has a bigger grin factor plus abit of the underdog appeal!

Mines a daily driver but I try not to take it anywhere to unsafe. Try and use the wife's car when we all have to go out.

My 75 is not used every day as I have a Citroen Berlingo van and my weeks driving amounts between 500-1000 miles. I do enjoy my drives in the 75 each weekend though. My annual mileage in the 75 never goes above 3000. Would really like a tourer to go to Rover meets and vintage Radio & TV swap meets for more space and a 2.5 KV6 for a bit more oomph.

Dave, that is one fine car. I want it! Would complement Leopardmobile nicely!

A daily drive for me, it's been used to take stuff to the tip, had a couple of fridge/freezers in the back (not at the same time), used for carrying kayaks and soggy kayaking kit, going to the supermarket, day trips to the countryside etc. I eat in it, drink in it and smoke in it. The great thing about a tourer is that with a couple of roll-mats, a sleeping bag and a pillow you can even sleep in it, but under no circumstances are dogs or sticky-fingered sprogs allowed in it...well you have to draw the line somewhere!
