An interesting pictorial thread :-) I agree on the never buying new car again too.. Not the hassle free motoring it was cracked out to be in my experience
Learned to drive in my dad's Rover 3.5 V8 SD1 and then XJ6 4.2, XJS V12 and XJ Sovereign 5.3 V12. My vehicles 78 VW Derby - a sordid past led to MOT failure and eventual scrap heap. 79 Allegro 1750 Twin carb - front wheel fell off exiting M-way slip road. 83 Escort Van with XR3 engine - fast fun when empty 87 Astra 1.3 - SRi interior made it seem fun - sold to family member 81 CB250 Honda Super Dream - shocking first bike - wooden brakes 88 Mini 1000 Cooper look alike - 38,000 miles in 18 months 87 Astra 1.3 - bought back from family member 88 Jetta GTI 16V - my first proper car. Idiot T boned me as she over shot a Stop line 79 Fiesta 1.1 - Mint car as stop gap, but dreadful to drive - sister wrote it off using a bus shelter 94 Astra 1.7 TD - workhorse - boring - economical 87 Jetta GTI 16V - not as good as my previous one - cam belt snapped 89DAF Van - big, ugly, piece of junk 86 Golf GTI 8V- great torque 89 Corrado 16V- best handling *90 Rallye G60 - favourite car* 03 Kawasaki ZX6R 636 A1P - :-) 99 Elise 111s - great until 4x4 helped me to write it off and leave me in hospital 99 Triumph Speed Triple 955i - Cool, torquey 01 Leon Cupra - a fine car 04 Vito 115 *first NEW vehicle* Great until all the problems started 97 and 2001 Aprilia RS250 race bikes - frantic Sprinter company van 01 Kawasaki ER5 - workhorse Transit Courier company van 91 Caddy Mk1 Constables Mobility conversion - weird and wonderful
Ok then here are mine: 1990 golf 1.3 1986 golf c diesel 1991 golf gtd (still got it) 1992 golf mk3 1.8cl 1994 vento gl td 1990 mercedes 190e (i wanted an auto!) 1992 bmw 520i 1996 bmw 520i se auto 1990 bmw 525i 1995 bmw 525i sport m tec 1964 humber sceptre mk1 (still got) 1997 bmw 728i se auto (still got) 1998 passat 1.8 se 2005 passat estate highline tdi 130 2000 audi a4 2.4 se avant out of all that lot.........really really really glad i kept the gtd!
