6 days of the week is the EH Wagon, if there's a repair on the EH (which has been a long time now..... touch wood) or a Sunday, the XP ute gets a run. The old cars love it, it's a decent run, 25km or so of uninterrupted highway cruising

I use my ZH Fairlane as my daily. No Air con, Power steer or fast glass. Windows down and listen to the sound of a 351 Clevo.
