Three

1) XE GL, 5 speed, 3.3 uberpowerhaus motor. Was a slug & just as thirsty as the EB, but other than that it was a great car. Should never have sold it!

2) (dunno whether I should include this) A '67 VW that I bought for $20. It was r00ted, and all I did was pull it apart at a mate's farm, then I never touched it again! I dunno what happened to that bug. Let us never speak of it again

3) Current car, the EB. She's a bit dirty at the moment (got bogged in sand/gravel on New Year's Eve), actually I think I'll give her a clean before it gets dark. Stock, but rocks!
