    As posted elsewhere;

    1979 Citroen 2CV6 (Wrote it off by hitting a stone wall at 50mph! It bounced 100 yards up the road and I got out where the roof had been, totally unharmed!)
    1979 Citroen 2CV6 (Identical to the other one and bought the day after the crash!)
    1977 Citroen Ami Super (French Mini Cooper of it's day! It had only done 19,000 miles in 14 years but the body panels were still rotten as a pear. Hunted the UK for panels and got them put on for me. Great car! Ugly car!)
    1984 Citroen Acadiane van (Van version of the Dyane and left hand drive. Top speed 65mph but handled great)
    1988 Daihatsu Charade GTti (Would have another one if I had the money to keep it good)
    1990 Daihatsu Charade GTti
    1991 Rover Metro 1.4GS (Lovely leather seats so we wore bottomless trousers! Only had it a year as silly things broke but it never actually broke down. Still going strong six years after we sold it.)
    1979 Citroen 2CV6 (Bought the old one back!)
    1995 Fiat Cinquecento Sporting (One of the very first in the country. Loved these.)
    1996 Fiat Cinquecento Sporting (We really wanted a yellow one!)
    1986 Citroen 2CV6 Special
    1986 Citroen 2CV6 Dolly
    1991 Daihatsu Charade GTti
    1988 Daihatsu Charade GTti
    1989 Volkswagen Passat 1.8CL (VW at last! The Charade lunched it's engine and we had no transport so bought this. Bit of a heap but it impressed us.)
    1988 Mercedes 230TE (Worst car ever owned! What could go wrong did go wrong. Never again)
    1989 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8GL (Part of the family now!)
    Q Reg Citroen 2CV Sidewinder!!! (2CV body, 1300cc GSA engine and Ami Super chassis. 115mph 2CV! When it's completed!
    1995 Ford Escort 1.3 (Was free and was transport. Nasty, horrible car and the engine blew up)
    1997 Renault Megane 1.4 Liberte (Cheap thru family. Pile of crap)
    1981 Citroen Dyane 6 (Bought and sold quickly)
    1990 Volkswagen Passat 2.0 GT 16V Estate (Excellent car)
    1995 Volkswagen Sharan 2.0 CL (Well it has a VW engine but awful build quality)

    We still have the Jetta, Passat, Sharan and the mental Citroen! When I met my wife she had a Vauxhall Nova 1.0 which we used to rag the crap out of. It was tough! You can see I have a thing for old Citroens. Proper old ones that is, not crappy AX's or Saxos etc. 2CVs are hilarious apart from the rust.
