(2) An Everyday Car - one you have to commute say 40 miles a day in (10 miles urban, 10 miles winding country roads (england style) and 20 miles highway)... to get you to work and back, to the store, etc... a daily driver
(3) A Family Car - this is the one to drive drive throughout the week with the kids in the back, to their school, their soccer games, etc. or if you're not married, this is the car you and your friends will go places in... should be fairly roomy, (say, perhaps, an SUV?)
ok, spare no detail. cost no issue.
where possible, post the name of the car, and then a moderately sized picture underneath (nothing too big plz :p) ...
i'm still thinking :)

Vanquish (or the DB9 (?), looks exactly the same but has some tweaks).
Some kind of huge mother****ing pick-up.

2 - Ford Mondeo ST220
I may be biased because the first car I ever drove was my Dad's Mark 1 Mondeo, but these cars are solid, extremely comfortable and effortless to drive. And they can burn the best of them at lights despite weighing about 2 tons.
3 - Land Rover Discovery 3
You never know when you may need the torque to climb the side of a house ;) :lol:
But that'd be used for me and my mates doing adventure type holiday stuff.

I HATE YOU.
Erm.
You know the MPG for a SUV compared to something normal?
I'll take pretty much the same for all three. I'd take something small, reliable and safe for the weekend car, something with a bit more of a boot/trunk for the daily drives, and a Volvo or a Volkswagen Bus for the third slot.
