2017 Ford Focus RS. Bought it because I had a 2 door 2008 Fiesta ST and girlfriend (now wife) said I should think long term and get a 4 door family car with a bigger boot and that could take a baby seat. I felt I met all those requirements by buying the RS. Been smiling ever since.WhatsApp Image 2018-08-31 at 09.24.36.jpeg
 
2006 Corsa 1.4 Sport. 410000km. Only ever done the clutch at 355k and 1 cv joint and the usual servicing at 10k intervals. Been super reliable.

2019 Hyundai Elantra 1.6 T-GDI. Demo. 150kw from a 1.6 engine at R200k-300k less than other cars at that output. Family car as well. 7 year warranty on a car with Turbo. Downside - No sunroof. Facelift coming soon though and looking good.
 
BMW M2.

Why? It was the perfect blend of performance and looks at the price point. It is also relatively rare on the road, so the being in "something a bit different" aspect of it was also appealing.

Proper jealous.. pic?
 
Nissan Primera, automatic. Reliability. Cheap to maintain. Owned for 7 years. Sometimes hard to source parts, but
 
Renault Clio 1.2 GT Line - Fun to drive, comfortable and economical
 
Land Rover Discovery 4. Had them all ( Land Cruiser, Nissan, BMW) Toyota really cheap and nasty.
The best driving experience ever is the Discovery 4
 
Daewoo Lanos 1.6 SX - 1997, bought second hand in 2000. Never had a good paying job to buy a new car.

Now you will have a valid excuse when the kid throws up in the back seat during trips to the shop.
 
2007 Lexus IS 250 SE with about 187000 km.

Was planning to upgrade this year, but now will have to see what corona does to the economy

Keep it. Solid reliable vehicle. Maintain the services. Saw 1 in CT with over 500k on the motor with 3 service books still a solid drive.
