From: Swilling coffee at my lab bench
Seems as though most people have gone through more cars than me...
1) Y reg Fiat Panda, mum's 900cc sh1tebox. Group 1 insurance, though, which was handy.
2) G reg Rover 216S - very comfy and felt surprisingly quick after the Fiat! That said, I acquired a very comprehensive toolkit over the time I owned this car...
3) L reg Nissan 100NX. The only car I wasn't totally sick of by the time I got rid of it.
4) MY00 scooby with PPP.
5) Westfield SEW, 2.0 litre Vauxhall engine. Much more fun than any of the above, but not in this weather

I think pizza delivery moped beats everything else (though not read exhaustively all posts) for biggest jump, and there I thought (after reading 1st few pages) that my Corsa 1.4i was a big jump (as in complete non-sporty to seriously sporty MY00).
Driven cars prior to the Corsa (dad's insurance) also:
Vauxhall Cavalier (old old boxy style banger) X-reg
Rover 214
So the Scoob is my 2nd car I've owned.
