900cc with push button 4WD on the gear stick. A legitimately retarded vehicle.

Should have got the Justy RS turbo instead! (or built one like Trev Crowe's justy of epic madness...)

Car antics at uni were always fun, I remember one night taking a flatmates Suzuki Swift through the middle of the Otago campus - the accesses were all chained off, but the car was small enough that you could lift the chains up and drive under them. Could lift each end of the Swift with a couple of guys too, one night we turned it to a 45deg angle inside a carport... she spent ages doing a 53 point turn just to prove that she didn't have to ask us for help to get it out.

Some good times in Subarus in the snow too, funny cruising up Cargill in the Leone and watching badly driven 'proper 4wds' sliding off into ditches on their way down.
