Hey everyone!

The car community on Lemmy isn’t the most active and I thought it would be nice to list the cars of its members.

Here is my list:

Present: Seat Leon Cupra 300 St 4 drive

Past: Audi S4 B6 Avant manual, Seat Ibiza Cupra

I was really happy with the 4.2 liters V8 in my S4, but the Cupra gives me more performance, more practicality and is cheaper to run. Would have loved a manual version if you could get it with fake AWD.

I plan on keeping the Leon Cupra for another 10 years before switching to an EV Estate if they appear one day.

What’s your list?

My first car was a 2004 Outback. Good riddance, it was a mechanical clusterfuck.

Currently I still have:

  • 1991 Honda Accord, my solid daily
  • 1977 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, the summer weekend boat (yea I'm a bit block cadillac guy lol). 425 cubic inches of Fuck OPEC.

On the back burner are a couple others.

  • 1999 Subaru Forester, 5spd manual. Originally my high school daily. I lifted this one 2" and drove it in the gambler 500 a few times, it's transmission sounds like a blender and is blowing up so I parked it until I get a chance to swap a new 5spd in - which is hard because they're hard to find these days.
  • 2000 VW Golf TDI, 5spd manual. Got it for free, snapped timing belt at 300k. This was going to become a highway daily but life got in the way and I never had the time or mental energy to really dig into it.
