Well I was taking my daughter to school the other day, and like conversations we have had in the past, she asked if I was keeping the "Mini", as she liked it?, to which I replied probably not

She then asked why not, and how many cars have we had? Good question, firstly the Mini is just a runaround for work etc, cheap all round to run and nippy. The number of cars was counted there and then whilst still driving to school, I got to 16/

Anyway here is the list below, and I think in order. This is a list of cars that I have owned personally, not company or my partners cars as that would likely double the list.

1986 Audi Coupe 2.2 (S2 style)
1985 Ford Escort Turbo Series 1
1985 Ford Escort Turbo Series 1 again
1983 Renault Alipne GTA V6
1997 Peugeot 306D
1997 Mitusbishi FTO GPX
2001 Subaru WRX Cypriot model
1998 Mitusbsihi FRO GPvR
2001 Subaru WRX Estate UK
2001 Subaru WRX UK300
1999 Fiesta 1.2 LX
2003 Renault RX4
2003 Mitsubishi Warrior LPG
2001 Subaru STI UK
2001 Subaru STI JDM
2005 Subaru STI UK
2004 Subaru STI UK
2004 Subaru STI UK
2001 Mini Cooper


What about you?

1992 Sierra 2.0 LX estate (the DOHC one)

1998 Almera GTi - anyone else remember the adverts? Have a laugh at these:



2001 Mondeo Mk3 2.5 V6 Ghia X hatch

And splattered around that lot, a load more Opel Manta Bs of various vintages.
Oh yes, nearly forgot,

There are some fantastic cars on those lists. I was brought up through motorsport when I was a nipper, so although I was too young to drive some of those cars in the lists above, I was certainly involved along the way in being a passenger or helping my dad repair/sticker them up, particularly in the 80’s with Fords, Lotus and Opal.

The favourites of mine have got to be the MK1 RS and MK2 RS (non droop snoot) amongst many others.

Oh and I forgot to add this one which I have owned since my dad passed away 6 years ago:

1978 Renault Alpine A310

Anyway nice to see some lush cars on those lists, keep them coming.

Oh and I’m 34 by the way, passing my test in 1995 (soon as I legally could) after some off the road training from my dad
