Everyday, Everything for me! Love it's ability to adapt to all circumstances.

Do however also have an 06 Ford Focus ST and 64 Singer Gazelle at my disposal. Our house is a broad church but to be fair and in absolute honesty it is the 75 I hold in the highest regard!

Cool

Banana is my every day car and the intention this time round was to get a second car so that I did not use Banana so much. Tried this idea awhile back when I bought Redfive. But that did not work quite as I expected.

So my intention, as already stated was to get a little run around, maybe a ZR or another make altogether.

So I bought MG ZTT V8 395 complete with supercharger.

Yes Banana is still my everyday car and love driving her.

Not my everyday car but one day it will be.
The MG ZR gets all the hard work as I bought it with just 41k on the clock and now its up to 60k.
This has left me the last 2 years free to stedily improve the 75 ready for when it become my daily transport. I use it one a week to keep all bits moving.

My ZT is my everyday car but as I drive a company Van for work it still had a fairly easy life doing about 4k a year. Mostly pootling around the local area with very occasional long runs.

However this year that has all changed. My daughter has moved to South Wales so its a 380 mile round trip every time I go to see her.

SWMBO has got a job doing emergency cover at care homes all over Cheshire, and she cant drive meaning I have to drop her off and pick her up (2 return trips per shift!).

I did 550 miles last weekend alone

Its looking like this year will be about 12 to 14K

MG6 for daily use. The Rover has a life of luxury in the garage. Does less then 80 miles a year. Only done 30,000 miles from new.

Got to say everyday car but it leads a charmed life with me as I do less than a thousand miles a year.

Just used for shopping, going to the hospital/Doctors and the occasional show.
Although this year a trip to the Isle of Wight so I might go over a 1000 miles in a year.
