I've had Hondas or Acuras for 11 of the last 15 years.

Most of my car rentals are in Florida, so the bigger the Cadillac I can get, the better!!

Proud to say I'm becoming a car owner again tomorrow! I'm buying the aforementioned Escort off of my partner's brother. For $200 I can't go wrong really. However, this does break my Honda streak as the only vehicle make I've owned (1988 CRX, 2004 Jazz scooter, 2005 Civic in that order).

From what I've seen in our new fleet orders (for Halifax anyway) are Maximas and surprise - Volvo C30 three door hatches and S40 sedans; both will be classified as luxury models.
Personally? 2007 Ford Fusion SEL V6 AWD (Silver Birch on Charcoal) and a 2007 Ford Explorer Limited V8 (also Silver Birch on Charcoal!)

Come to think of it, where would the '89 Escort GT I just bought fit in? Compact Sports Special?

It's hard to slot the S40 in with that, as it is a bit small inside...maybe a Intermediate Special that only Elites get without an upgrade? Jas, when are the Volvos due to land at YHZ?
