Mini (black minilites, metro seats) Sold
Astra GTE Spend ****loads, sold it for 350 quid
3-Door Sierra RS Cosworth (263bhp 13.7 standing 1/4, 0-60 5.1 secs) Sold
Nissan S14a 200SX (car I learnt to drift in) Sold
Carlton GSI 300024v (London - Southport & back, 5up, full boot of luggage on one tank of fuel) Sold
E36 BMW 325 (Chipped M3 engine, currently being rebuilt)
Carlton GSI 300024V (scumball rally car, ragged round france for 3 days then sold)
Volvo 340 (drift slag and general winter runaround while the M3 gets rebuilt)
I kinda peaked with "nice" cars then went back to normal ones (albeit modified) but I suppose that happens to everyone as they try to save for things.

Astraboy,
What were those 3 litre Carltons like ? I always fancied one about 10 years ago
What car could you compare them to speed wise ?
