I followed a similar path, I think mine was probably more of a shed. An L reg 1.4 corsa GLS in metalic burgundy. Then straight to a 2.5 hawk STI, a fairly steep learning curve.

Had a Blaze Peugeot 306 GTi6
Had it for 11 years and was mint, slightly tuned to 212 bhp and was a lot of fun specially as it had the stealth look with no badges



Shame I sold it but have a Diablo project on throttle bodies which is taking too long should have about 230 ish ?
