Moke is now my daily driver. Since the govt took away our office car. Next the parking space went and I guess the indoor plants are next.

Seems to me the current government is fast running out of (our) money. :cry:

Oh I don't fear the outback, I respect it. I'd love to take NAV everywhere! I just lack the fiscal capacity and I don't rely on others more than absolutely nessecary.

I drove my Cooper Ss every day from 1968 to 1982, to uni then work and many interstate trips too. Then my Minivan from 1994 to 1999 was a daily driver. After having one S stolen and the van vandalised I retired them from everyday use.

Now I run my Land Rover or the wife's Rover Quintet on the daily grind. The SD1 is a bit too wild for everyday use and the Minis a bit too vulnerable from a security angle - even though I have quick release steering wheels in them they still seem to attract the wrong type of attention when left in public car parks all day.
