Points awarded for genuine sheds (proper sh1tboxes), particularly if your VX is lush, and also for sheds/dailies that are as impractical/expensive as the VX..

 

Go!

3 litres of petrol engine make it far less economical than the VX. I think it's even faster in a straight line also haha

Ford Focus 1.6 TDCI estate for me. Once you get an economical estate (i've had 2 now over 16 years) it's impossible to live without one. I've had garden waste, washing machines, 2 kayaks, upteen foreign trips etc in it, all done with a huge load capacity and 55 MPG.

Bought brand new 5.5 years ago, 60k miles. The most unreliable car I've owned.  It is fun though.

 

2 front dampers

2 rear dampers

3 (soon to be 5) lower suspension a-frames

2 front top mounts

gearbox rebuild following bearing failure

faulty wiring to heated screen (soon to be fixed by me)

Last summer I got fed up of running the VX as a daily, so I bought... a cheaper, more comfortable version:

 

986 Boxster S 3.2 :lol: And it counts as a shed because it was half the price of the VX, has nearly 140k miles thumbsup

My shed.  3 cylinders.  Mahoosive spoiler on the back which slows it down even more.  BUT, can get all the band gear it in, and don't care where I park it :)
