MKII Escort 1.6 Ghia
FIAT X19 (with wide arch kit) bag of sh*t
MKII Escort 1.6 Sport
Peugeot 205 GTI 1.6
RS Turbo MK IV
RS Turbo Series 1
Peugeot 309 GTI

RS 2000 MK VI 4x4
Mini Cooper
Peugeot 205 GTI 1.9

RS 2000 MK VI
Vauxhall Nova SRI
FIAT Punto HGT
Vauxhall Astra 2.0SRI
Vauxhall Astra GSI
Vauxhall Corsa 1.7 D
Vauxhall Astra 2.0 DTI
Subaru Impreza STI

Alot of the time I owned 2 and 3 of the above at the same time.

Biggest regret was not buying an Escort Cosworth after the RS 2000 MK VI 4X4, was just that insurance was totally stupid around that time and had 7 points due to driving with out due care and attention........
Thought about one since but 99% abused.

No didnt like them due always felt the sunroof edge was going to cut my head off if pulled up quickly. Just think it due to I have long body and short legs, couldnt get comfy driving position, but cars were ok.

This was my first car when i was 17, it was all show and no go, mainly down to the fact it was only a 1.2 16v.


Then when i was 18 a traded it in for a 2002 citroen saxo vts, this thing was a propper little go-kart.

Then when i was 18 and a half i sold that and bought this.

Oh drool, drool. That is gorgeous mate. I have very soft spot for GTEs, had 2 myself, one white 8V and a red 16V. The 16V is probably the best 'other than Subaru' car I've had.

Ford Fiesta Zetec S
VW Lupo GTI (starting to get quicker now!)
MY03 Subaru Impreza WRX PPP
Ford Mondeo Zetec ('cos some robbing b&+t&*&s tried to break into the house for the scoob)

Like this one you mean......



Sorry not the Turbo, only the 2.2 SE. Was a nice car, just not in the same league as a scooby though.
Will try and get the scanner working for some piccys of the GTEs.
I know what you mean about the GTE cornering! I didnt help with those awful standard size tyres. Replaced with later GSI 15's and was much much better
