Well it's not big, and not small, it's average size. So there's really a Streetwise for sale near you ? Great ! :)
I myself have a "1998" Rover 200 TDic MK1 (350.000km) and an "2004" MG ZR 115 IDT MK2 (80.000km) which are both the same size as the Streetwise, and they are all based on eachother ;) It are both Diesels, and this engines have proven to be very reliable, I never ever had technical engine problems at all, and they are quite quick too ;)

I really don't understand why people like Volvo's. Maybe its a Scandanavian thing but they really don't do anything for me. Big and heavy things, I like small-ish cars.

Volvo's lineup is not just "big and heavy things". There are also smaller models like C 30, C 70, S 40 and V 50. But I like more of the larger models like V 70, S 80 and XC 90. Car has to be big, not some doghouse...

And they are safe cars, for me safety is the most important thing :)

that is true! i've heard their safety record is very good. The only volvo's I see in England are big estate cars. (Sorry if you don't use the word 'estate car', it means, like a normal car but stretched at the back to make it longer).

Volvo's are quite rare here in Australia. I hardly ever see them and when I do they are old models.

I'm thinking about a pickup, when I'm eventually gonna get a car.
Anyone who knows about a good pickup to recommend?

I'm dreaming of a car with a 4.5 Liter V8 engine, or a 4.2 Liter V8, I love those engine sounds. :thumbsup: :thumbup:

I found a nice one at a car dealer not so far from me, it's a Jaguar S-type 4.2 V8 R in black, I might consider a test drive in this one:

Holy sh1t, and wow! But, you should consider that if the price seems very good, it's not always 100 % sure that the car is good, if you understand.
If it seems too good to be true, it often is too good to be true.

Just as a friendly advice :P

I know that......I probably won't buy it, but might consider a test drive to see how it drives, that should be fun even without buying. ;)
