Whats everyones daily driver?

"my" daily...... albeit, I don't have to commute in it, but I do use it regularly for mundane tasks - which become less mundane while driving it

Bet that is a barrel of laughs to drive!

My daily, as I have a family now is a trusty E12 Wagon. 1.6, 110 HP, I am the king of the roads

It currently lacks cruise control (soon to be installed), and I’ll swap the transmission for a 6 speed instead of the 5 speed it has right now.
Maybe in the future it will get a 1.8 from a Celica, but not 2zz, because that would be too much. Just a simple 1zz, 143 HP. But yeah I don’t know, maybe that would be too much work
If it would have the 1zz I shouldn put a Fielder S badge on the rear .

Update on my daily: one more dent!

The good part is that the insurance will cover this and it will be repaired along some other dents and scratches. So it will look okayish again!

It's the shape of one of the corners of a box trailer...
I was driving through a narrow street nearby my old house and made a right turn when some van came storming from the right direction. So I reversed with a right turn back into the narrow street where I came from, looking in my mirrors to avoid the bicyclists on the left and avoiding another parked van on the right. As the van was parked right on the corner, I didn't see that the van also had a trailer attached to it. The trailer was parked in het corner as well, so it wasn't straight behind the van, so I couldn't see it in any mirror nor in my reverse camera and apparently I didn't register the trailer when I passed it. Just tough luck.
My Civic lost a 5km/h battle with the trailer.

At least this is only the second dent I inflicted on any of my cars. The previous time I was a junior driver and reversed into someone's tow hook with my first car. I fixed it myself with a big dolly, half a can of bog and a cheap non-matching duplo rattle can. I won't repeat that process this time!
