Been a while since one of these polls were done.

 

As these cars are getting older and petrol prices so high, curious to know if people are shifting more to having them as Weekend/2nd cars, rather than Daily drivers.

 

Daily Driver/Commuter ?

Weekend toy/2nd car ?

Edited May 15, 201114 yr by Yowser

daily almost, no commuting though.

Daily drive only - half an hour each way

Weekend toy for me, but I try and use it whenever I can on nice day/evening, deffo dont use it for work, dirty van for that job

Weekend toy/2nd car for me........

 

With fuel prices this high and my mpg..... jees... Dunno how some people run a 300 on a daily basis....

 

 

Alz.

I would say a summer car for me now. use to use it everyday in snow and whatever. But i have noticed all the zeds are rotting away.

 

So i got the gsi for winter and whenever it rains, so i can try and keep the underneath tip top :)

My previous Zs were daily drivers but I was young and cost of living was pretty cheap so I made the most of it lol.

 

Now I really like the fact that I can use it at the weekends or just when I want, as I have a company van for in the week.

warm weather only for me!:thumbup1:

 

dan.:biggrin:

Weekend toy and sometimes drive it to work if weather is good. Mind you the daily driver is not very economical BMW X3 2.5 petrol:biggrin:

My Previous Z's were Daily drivers.

 

The Slicktop could only ever be a weekend toy though. My 100 Miles a day commute would kill me in fuel costs.

becks did 100 miles aday in the supra and it use to be about £130ish a week.

 

Then the little one came so we got the 330D, quicker than the supra and cost about £50 for the same distance :punk:

still getting 32.5mpg -N/A. still not been overtaken. Even took the Zed all the way (without checking under the bonnet first)to Devon- thats trust, that is! about 300 miles from 120K & no leaks or drips. gets left in public carparks at weekends.

Drivers targa roof make a annoying 'cracking' sound over bumps being the only complaint.

2 or 3rd car if you count the missus' clio and my old work van..

 

Haven't got the work van anymore, but don't do any driving in the uk either, unless I'm back on leave - in which case its Zed time!!

 

Don't care how much petrol costs - I'm going to enjoy mine before all the petrol runs out :scared:

Would be the very VERY odd weekend for me, if I can get myself organised and register it lol

Really? How so? :sad:

Had it 6 years now bud and where i get little time to drive it now im getting to the stage where i dont miss driving it anymore.

it used to be my daily drive,family came along 6 months after buying it so summer car and never in the rain anymore aint got wet for three and half years,rain wet not washing it

I use mine daily, which is why its taking so long to finish :biggrin:

Weekend car for me. I use an old Micra to run around everywhere else, most reliable car Ive ever owned.

 

Plus I need a Main car so I can have classic insurance on the zed :D

Exactly that for me too. :thumbup1:

Mine's a weekend/holiday toy.....

 

.....nothing to do with fuel consumption/running costs as my daily drive is 3.5 litres and 308bhp. It's more to do with decent low mileage ZXs getting rarer nowadays; so I'd like to keep mine that way.

 

I just don't want to kill/waste it on the daily commute. But I'm happy to take it on hols and clock up a thousand miles or so each time....
