How many cars you owned?

Peanut how old are you? Thats some list!

 

First car:- 1.1 Festa, which was a complete tin box with a manual choke! But cost bugger all to run and fix. Miss it.

1989 Golf 8v GTi, going from a 1.1 to a 1.8 injection was earth shattering!

1987 MkIII 2.8 Capri, dream car from too much Professionals as a kid. Sounded fantastic but spent more time in the garage, either being fixed or filling up with petrol! AND rusted like a *********.

1991 Corrado G60, current car, with a never diminishing list of things to do on it. :(

 

He is only 29 lol. Too much time on his hands me thinks. ;)

[speedtwelve 0]

Owned in order:

 

SAAB 900i (First car, fairly decent handling, really needed to be a turbo as 118 bhp isn't exactly a lot in one of these...)

VW Scirocco GTX (Loud, quick, lowered, did loads of trackdays in it)

Lancia Delta HF Turbo (Old-skool turbo lag, quick on-boost, excellent steering, demolished a farm fence with it)

Nissan 200SX S13 (Easy to oversteer RWD turbo sideways chariot. The engine? You name it, it broke/failed/seized/caught fire/exploded)

Peugeot 309 GTi (XU 1.9 engine grunt, excellent chassis, pissed-up French worker build-quality)

Ford Mk2 Fiesta XR2 (The 309 GTi broke, this was very cheap and quite comically crap. Chavtastic!)

VW Scirocco GT-S (race-prepared) (Road-legal as well; passengers not keen on having to climb through rollcage bars)

Toyota Carina (I was confused and decided to try a 'normal' car for commuting. Chopped it in for a Mk2 GTI after about a month...)

VW Mk2 Golf GTI 8v (K-Jetronic, non-PAS, small-bumper 3-door. IMO the lightest and best of the 8v MK2s. Mate's 5-door big-bumper Digi wasn't as good)

Toyota MR2 Turbo (This was great. Like playing Gran Turismo, except you had to spend £50 on Shell VPower every 220 miles)

VW Golf VR6 (Daily car. Koni suspension. Sounds great, pretty grunty, but not a patch on my Corrado)

VW Corrado VR6 (Comes out at weekends etc. Spec as per signature. Always wanted one, ain't selling it)

Mazda Eunos S-Spec Mk1 (Hopefully getting this on Tuesday! Steering is virtually of Elise quality, goes sideways on crap Chinese tyres, even in the dry)
