I've got an '98 opel corsa 1.4 eco with half a tank of gas standing in the streets, does that count?

I don't like racing games either, never ever buy em usually, but i'm really impressed with GT5. Really is an amazing game.

Ped: You can indeed play it over the net. You have the customary 'join a room/create a room' for random mo'fos, or you can simply create a private lounge for your online friends and go for it. And the best thing is, playing online awards XP and Credits to count towards your career.

Warcold: As for your Corsa, I recommend a high RPM turbo, stage 3 engine tuning, a fully customisable limited slip diff and soft racing tyres ;)

haha good point well presented.  :D

I  can't really talk.  having 5 kids my choice of family transport is fairly limited.
Hence we have a Renault Grand Scenic  *shudder*.
Bloody 7 seaters are all like driving buses. Funny enough i wanted a Land rover Discovery. But for a decent 5 year old one they  still wanted over 15 grand  ??? . I wouldnt (and quite frankly couldnt even if i wanted to) pay that that for a new car let alone a second  hand  one.
