Weekend toy mainly - although I do use it to and from work when its dry for maximum top down fun

Husqvarna TE610 supermoto, when I dont have any Meetings / Site visits, and feel like a 'hoon' around extended B road route to work.

Mainly use Company's pool car for bad weather and site meetings etc - Mitsubishi Carisma Diesel

Weekends only, but only because I work away from home during the week when I drive whatever the hire car company spits at me which can be anything from a mondeo/focus to a fiat multipla.

Weekends and evenings mostly with the odd trip out of London. Daily runners are a Vespa ET2 50 or the tube, depending on the weather!

It's my daily driver. Covered the best part of 17,000 miles since Jan

Although I am looking into getting a beater for tip/B&Q trips and taking some of the heavy mileage. Either:
Peugeot 306
Honda Civic
Hyundai Accent Coupe

60 miles a day for me, putting it in the garage soon for the winter and will run the 106 Rallye through the winter, its happier in the p1ssing rain than the hairy S
