Seat Leon s 1.6 110 BHP
18, my 1st love, always wanted it to be a Cupra R and considered getting the body work but in the end went for the dull save all the money option …
22, 06 Hawkeye WRX 230 BHP
doubled my horsepower however its scary how soon you come used to more power since then the modding started 300bhp and now in search for more bang from my wrx.
short but sweet

1988 Mk1 fiesta 1300S - terrific little car and always kind of regretted not keeping it a little longer, especially after seeing it still on the road in decent nik 5 years after selling it
1991 Metro GTi 16V - great fun if less than reliable, never the same after when dealer regassed suspension
1996 Impreza 1.8GL - hooked me on AWD, went plenty well enough and utterly reliable
2004 - Impreza WRX, now modded with full H&S exhaust and remap
Yes, I really have had only 4 cars in 20 years!

Started driving late, at 27! I had a Golf Clipper Convertible 'E' reg in black, some guy sideswiped it and wrote it off! Then I had a Gunmetal Clio 16v 'J' reg, decatted, all the popping and little flames, handled like a roller skate and surprised a few bigger and supposedly quicker cars. That one was stolen and used in two robberies! Next was a black Mk2 Golf GTi 16v 'G' reg which was hated by the wife. She loved the Clio, and when I came back with the Golf, she had a little weep! That gave way to an Audi 80 'J' reg! We will say no more about that! I traded it in for a 52 plate Leon Cupra, which I had for a couple of years, nice car but got bored with it in the end. I sold it for 6300 and spent every penny on my 52 plate DBM Bugeye WRX. And here I am today loving every minute, apart from the filling up.
