April to October my daily driver is a Ducati M620, but for the winter months I have a Mazda Protege5. Its not a very exciting car, but in 130k mile I have not had one problem with it.

I recently traded my Protegé5 for a Jetta TDI Cup. I don't know if you can get one any more, but a dealer might still have one somewhere in the country.
Fun to drive, very light on fuel (40-ish in mixed driving), good looks, and not a big theft target. Mine sits at the airport parking lot about as much as at home since I fly out nearly every week for pretty much the whole week.

Mainly drive my Explorer (Porsche Support Vehicle), and occasionally my CLK. Hard to believe, but wife prefers riding in the Explorer.

i get the pleasure of my 300miles weekly commute in our passat workhorse , i very occasionally manage to wrestle the keys off my wife for the touareg( especially when its cold cause i like the heated seats) but any excuse & the 964 is out the garage like a scalded cat , averaging 100 miles a week basically going nowhere , whats a usual average for your 964,s?

the 964 is my daily driver, now at 206 kmiles. Today when the fan belts started to screech, I drove the 2000 JAG XK8. MY2000 are around 10k, just be sure the timing chain tensioners have been updated.

2010 Audi Q5 S-Line. We're quite happy with it. Nice ride, decent handling, "right-sized". It's kinda like a 4000 lb VW GTI R32.
