I haven’t a clue as to how much he’s paying but he’s always skint (Audi apprentice mechanics dont get paid much according to him :lol: ). They have done quite a good deal with mine this year as well. Ive only got two (bad) pic's of his car as he lives down south and ive only taken my camera down once. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted July 18, 2005 Peugeot 205 Trio with a whopping 954cc engine.. 5cc's less and it would have counted as a 0.9 litre engine!! Great from a 'first car' point of view, but horrible to drive. Max speed was about 80MPH (downhill with a good tail wind), and body roll was so bad you could virtually reach out of the window and touch the road mid-corner. Still, it was a good car to make the usual mistakes in and scare myself in.. had I done some of the stuff I did in that in a Corrado instead, I might not be here today to be quite honest.

Phil K 0 Posted July 18, 2005 I'm sure the young can appreciate a C as much as anyone else... hell, I'm not old!!! If you have the money to own, run and maintain a C then good for you :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted July 18, 2005 kids don't know what it's like to drive a crap car anymore :lol: i'm thinking my 18yo brother and his seat marbella jnr [850cc] may have something to say about that.. my first car - the blue bullet - was the nuts, chick pleaser and gti teaser.

MattWilde 10 Posted July 18, 2005 Baz previously owned: 1.1 C reg Ford Fiesta L.. mine was a popular plus, corking little car and like jim said, if i had done what i did in that in a more powerful car i'm not sure i'd be here today. saying that, when i got a powerful car it taught me how to drive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blair 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Jeez...nearly 20 years ago now, but it was a 1980 facelift Mk1 Golf 1500 GLS. Brilliant car - I can't believe it never let me down, considering the stick I gave it for 6 years :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
