1981 Red ford cortina 1.6l with a knackered camshaft ( Dads old car ) Good fun , it being RWD , until I wrapped it round a lampost .
1986 burgandy pug 205 1.3 GR .
1988 red pug 205 1.8 XLD diesel . A bloke in a granada lost control in the snow , met me head on and totalled the pug .
1991 pug 205 1.4 XS with GTI alloys , LAD suspension & K&N filter . Fantastic little car , handled like a kart . Could keep up with a GTI on the twisty stuff . Liked my pugs & would still be driving one - probably a 1.9 GTI - if I didn't need a bigger car for towing my stock car ( a 309 1.9 GTI ).
1991 red Legacy 2.2GX 4WD , compomotive alloys , turbo shocks & uprated pads .
Next car - probably a legacy turbo to scare you impreza boyos on the track .

Well spotted Paul - not like you . You must've stopped sniffing the pro-boost . But the 306 has now been replaced by the 307 . Of course I could always aim for the 607 executive class car , going through the 405 , 406 , 504 , 505 & 605's on the way .

Was there much difference between the Civic ESI and the SiR Dohc V-tec, was the V-tec much faster?
Vans [/quote]
Vans, the ESI was also a Vtec but only a single cam. I found the difference huge especially at around 5000rpm in the SiR. Traction control was fitted as standard as was a strut brace and the suspension was modded so it handled superbly, unlike my Scooby at Mondello last week. Apart from my Impreza the SiR was the most fun car I have ever driven.

I'll probably miss some, but started in 1988
975 Fiesta 17yo
998 Orange Mini 14 yo
Green 1100 Mini Special 14 yo
Mini Cooper with big bore 1425cc - quickest car on the planet 23 yo
Metro 9 yo (moving up in the world)
Metro MGA 9 yo
Renault 5 turbo 10 yo
Nissan Micra - first new car
MX5 - new
250 Yamaha Virago - first new bike
zx6r - new
fireblade - new
YZF R1
Nissan Almera - new (first baby)
Pug 106 first second car
Scooby - 3yo cos I liked reddish blue (first stolen car)
BMW 523i SE with all the bits
BMW 330D
So far I have written off the Fiesta, three minis, two Metro's, three bikes and the 523. All accidents were deemed by insurance companies to be not my fault, so I only lost NCB when the scooby was stolen.
Most miles - 30000 in MX5
Least miles - nearly 3 on the blade.
