    I don't think mine have really evolved at all! Just a collection of oldies:

    First car - roofless 1968 triumph herald primrose yellow 1.5L
    Next up - white MG midget 1976 1.5L
    Doesn't really count as blew up very quickly - blue ford sierra 1.8L
    Third - toyota rav 4 black 2L I really liked it at the time for some extraordinary reason
    fourth - white mark 1 golf gti cabby
    fifth - black mark 1 golf gti cabby
    sixth - ford bronco 5L

    Most unreliable = ALL of them!
    Favourite = wee white golf, am glad we kept her :)
