I picked up my new car today

A 2003 Peugeot SW GTI 2.0 16v, all I can say is wow, there is some serious power under the hood of this little car.

Let's make this into a thread with personal car pictures.

Here's my car. Well, THIS one is not, but mine is the same colour and same year of matriculation, but I was lazy and didn't want to search for pictures of mine.



I recently had to re-paint the hood and replace the right mirror as kids in my neighbourhood seem to hate cars for some reason...

BTW, Bossarea, I love your car design-wise (not much of a fan of italian engines though)

Very relevant to me

This is a shot of my current car - now just over 10 years old - the photo was taken when new but she still looks pretty good...



Should be ordering a new one next week but going for the M-Sport Touring to give me some more room to put guitars and gig-kit in
- must get my priorities right

BMW are quoting delivery in Jan 2010 so a while to wait

I'd wait until 2011 for a BMW and it would be worth waiting for.

Looks way too cold for my liking. I heard that these cars have to run a special octaine gas or you have to add higher octaine to the gas you use for this car to run well. Is that true?

Ford Australian cars are pretty interesting to me. I rented a new Ford Falcon while I was there and no one in the U.S. wanted to believe me when I told them, until I showed them pictures of it. Apparently at the time, Ford wasn't making Falcons for consumers in the U.S. and so most people in the U.S. were completely unaware that they existed in Australia.

If you brought that 1994 Ford XG Ute to the U.S. there would definitely be lots of people checking it out. It would be a huge attention getter for sure.

It just needs premium unleaded. Nothing special.
