| Make a choice, one car from each class... It's once again time for the imaginary garage! This time the rules are as follow: 1. You may only chose one car from each manufacturer/brand, i.e. a VW, Skoda and Audi may be chosen. 2. Your garage should consist of no less than 5 cars one from each category. 3. There are five categories. These are a) compact runabout b) your everyday commuter c) the sportscar d) the car for the trip to the countryside e) the "sunny-day-wife-away"-car. 4. The cars must be from a German manufacturer or German owned manufacturer. 5. The cars must be in current lineup. ![]()

| Re: Make a choise, one car from each class... damm Corpus, i can feel your love for BMW, but rule number 1: "You may only chose one car from each manufacturer/brand, i.e. a VW, Skoda and Audi may be chosen." Many of us, including me, made that mistake too
