Ford Transit van. I can fit everything possibly need in there and its a nice bench to sit on whilst changing shoes and putting waterproof trousers on etc. Sometimes use the Saab 9-3 which fits 3 carry bags in the back with the woods taken out but struggles with a few trolleys and cart bags in the summer.

BMW 330d M sport. It's my pride and joy and a treat to myself after spending 7 months on a Falklands deployment last year, only problem is I can only fit one golf bag in the boot

All my golf gear resides permanently in the boot of an 11-year old Toyota Avensis estate. With 1 seat folded down I can fit in 4 golfers, 4 sets of clubs, hold and cabin luggage for 4 when travelling to the airport for our annual Spain/Portugal/Turkey trip.

A 10 year old Nissan X Trail. The wife has a nice car but I just don't see the point in spending money on a motor. The silver pig has never really let me down, and until she does, she stays.

E46 M3 Convertible.

Boot will take a set of clubs although the driver has to be taken out of the bag.....most of the time I just have the clubs on the front passenger seat as it's less hassle.

Fit! Ever since owning a 1.2 Clio (Mk3), I've yearned after a Renaultsport Clio.

There is something special about little french hot hatches!

I have had a 205gti 1.6, a clio Mk2 16v, Renault 5 turbo! all great fun, all super light and fragile!

The new ones look brill! i would love to be younger and not require loads of space for kids etc!!

They can now be had for very cheap. No one wants a 2.0L clio that isnt great on petrol.

They may not be the quickest (in a straight line) or most flash hot hatches about but they drive better than anything on the market.

I bet, its not about the straightline speed with these though is it! mate had a 182 cup clio, that was a hoot! lots of rear wheel lifting in corners = fun fun fun!

another friend has a dog of a 205gti for a track car, now he has an international race licence so is a little bit handy behind the wheel... so this is just for fun, but round silverstone GP, he was flashing porka 911's mid corner to get out of the way!!

It was an XC90 until the lease ran out last week and they had it back.

Now it's an Audi A4 Black Edition for the next 3 years - my new baby so the kids all have to travel with HID.

No idea if the clubs and trolley fit in the boot yet but the rear seats fold down so I'm sure they'll get in somehow.
