My daily driver: Honda Civic 1.5i 1991. It's just tured 20 this month, so it can buy beer on its own.
I swapped the 1.5 mono injection for MPFI from the 1.6 model. Weighs under 900 kg, snappy and economical.
Wife's/family car -- a 2009 Toyota Corolla Verso 2.2 D4D
That's, basically, the reason why I ruled out red as a colour for the roadster. Two might be a coincidence, but three would imply something.
