VW Corrado (hence the name ) 1.8 16V 152bhp with mods. 0-60 not too quick (8ish) but once moving, boy did it handle so no need to slow down. Still got it BTW (hence still the name ).

 

Focus RS was last, got bored to quickly, before that i have a very very rare Radient Red Sapphire Cosworth 4x4 J reg, totally standard, got offered really stupid money for it so it went ta ta though it was immense

Ford Probe 2.0L 16V, nice car in stunning Chameleon Blue paint. Not too quick though.

115 BHP, 0-60 in 10.6 secs and a top speed of 128....

Amazingly for a car with 'modest' performance it was Insurance Group 16.

Cheap as chips too, virtually had to give it away when I got the Scoob (5 weeks ago) and it was a 97/R in great nick.

Only changed cos we bought a dog so I needed an Estate

Forgot to say have a MY02 Wagon Import

 

Focus 1.8 Zetec nice motor but lost 5K in 2.5 years so brought a MY03 WRX and love it!

 

A nice little white '97 polo 1.4 8v with a whopping 60bhp!!!!
LOL makes a huge jump to my sti running c.280bhp

To right i had a G60, i thought it was quick but then i got my first scooby!

But they were/are good cars, loved hammering down the autobahns in it.

0-60 wasn't to bad either.

I had a ford focus 1.8 zetec in aqua frost. very tasteful, the garage i part exchanged it at has still got it for sale. I bought my scoob in january. Looks like I did well there lol....!!!!

 

Rover 214 here, a 94M model. 74 of your finest bhp, 0-60 in calendar months and topped out at 104 would you believe......

Bloomin maaaarvelous

Neil

 

as an add on question, if money was no object, would you still be driving around in a scoob or would you opt for something else.....?????? and what do you think is the best car ever..??

 

Fiat Seicento Sporting 1.1, yes the bright yellow ones

 

Modded Punto GT3 - Good fun and you dont see to many

 

mine was a very nice saxo vts which i spent far to much money on!

 

MIne was a nissan 300zx twinturbo jap import(bring on the oversteer!!)

 

Clio Sport 172 Mark 1

Really loved it, my first real fast car.

Went for the scoob as it was the fastest thing for the money (03WRXppp) and it flatters my poor driving skills!!!

If money was no object i think i'd still only go for the T25 or Evo 8 FQ330.
might be tempted by the Clio V6 though.

 

One of my faster cars was a rover V8 powered capri which i converted myself, then a 2.8 injection then pug 205 (marriage) astra gte 16v (divorced) then landrover discovery (miss like crazy) and now the silver bullet MY98 wagon

 

I had a Prorsche Boxster s which was a 3.2 and such a fantastic car in the dry but not ideal in the wet I found

 

Rover 416sli on a J plate
Now that was fast........not.

 

Mini Cooper S.

Corsa Sport 1.4 16v

 

Porsche 996 C2 not looked back since

 

FSO Polenez 1.5 - Built and handled like a tail happy Tank.

Skoda 136 Rapide - I was young, it was free and it was black with a set of cosmics on.

Pug 205 1.9 GTi - Got it when I was 19, 14 years ago, impressed me so much I will never sell it.

Rover 214 SLi - Didn't go, didn't stop. It was cheap to run and insure though.

Pug 306 2.0 XSi - Quickish but too heavy for 130 bhp.

MY04 WRX - Still running it in, but still great fun.
