1st car 1986 Seat Ibiza 1.2, which was the target for all my chav ideas! white wheels, hundreds of speakers.... oh dear.

I saw sense after that, and got a fiat! Chiquecento Sporting. Like a little go kart and lots of fun, but i was still a chav and kept crashing it, then the head went and i got offer of a Seicento Sporting, again good fun until i found out that they are total death traps! Also Fiat dealers are complete planks.

While i had that i got a 85 breadvan as a second car, complete with leaking battery compartment and a bonnet that kept flipping up, but great for £150.

Replaced the Fiat with a 97 1.9 D 6N, but only an L..... wished i had checked out specs first! anyhow, power steering failed, the gearbox dropped out of it..... and eventually i realised the guy who owned it before me was a bit of a cowboy so i was worried what else he had messed up on it, so i got rid of it!

Replaced that with a 98 Rover 200. I never really like them, only got it as a stop gap after the polo but i was really impressed, until i tried to sell it... blooming head gasket went on it! so i fixed that and flogged it, but apart from that i changed my opinion of rover cos it was a good little car!

While i had the Rover i bought a mk1 golf... my all time fav car. First one was £100 off ebay and it was loads of fun, but a flippin nightmare! engine was wrecked and in the end was off the road needing a new lump.

While the mk1 was parked up i briefly had a £40 Pug 205 and a Toyote starlet, both good cars but i wanted a veedub!

So i got looking for a new lump for the golf, and found another mk1 i loved- mars red, perfect. i spent all summer tidying it up then some unmentionable stole it and burnt it out. nice.

My old mk1 had since gone to a mate who put a lump in it, then pranged it!

Insurance money was just enough to cover a mk2 polo coupe s i was lucky to find on the bay. that was a good motor, had more of the 'usual' polo traits, oil leak from fuel pump etc! but i loved it.

So the Rover went to make way for a 95 6N (this time a CL!) and this is the most reliable car i have ever had. got it mega low milage and full service history and i have just carried that on. I think i will probably keep it for the rest of my life!

The mk2 coupe s went to buy the missus an mx5 (dont hate me for it) i gave it to my brother in law who had just pranged his car so still got to see it (and wish i had kept it sometimes!)

Now I'm sensible..... kind of..... i have managed to stick with the mx5 and the polo for about 2 years now. altho i do find myself looking about every once in a while

Not got a big car history!

passed my test and my mum gave me her car :-D

2001 - 2.0L Chrysler Neon R/T - Sold that and moved down for insurance

2001- 1.6 Fiesta Zetec-S - Turbo'd That and Sold it!

1997 - Mitsi Colt GLX - Didnt like this at all so sold that for... .

1997 - Mk4 6n 16v :-D Apsolutly Love it!

My very long list at the age of 19........

My history:

First car was a Rover 114 GTa (Metro!)

Don't think I've missed anything out? I'm 19, so not had many cars really!

ok, i dont drive yet (i passed my theory tho!) but i have bought few cars...

First car i bought bor bargin £110 was Golf Cabrio Mk1 GTI 1983, I've sold it couple months ago due to house move

Then for christmas (my b'day is month later) my parents bought me Fiat Punto 1.2 Active Sport, i drive it on L plates or without'em.

And week before i sold mk1 i bought Polo mk3 1.0 1993!! Polo is my project car which I'm planning to finish on 21st January 2009 (my 18th), thats going to be my b'day present :)

So at the age of 17 i have/had

mk1 vw Golf GTI cabrio 1983

mk2 vw Punto Active Sport 2002 (which is for sale now)

mk3 vw Polo 1993 (my baby)

After polo project I'm planning to get a mk1 CADDY, and then mk5 Golf GTI (in further future)

And for the rest of my life i will be a true dubber :D

  • 3 weeks later...
My very long list at the age of 19........

<<<Murry my Red 6n polo

and thats it! :-D

Which i occasionally borrow!!!!

At nearly 28, I've lost count but i've not had many in retrospec.

2 x mk2 1043cc breadys (one was my 1st car and alot of fun!)

1 x mk3 1043cc Coupe fox.

2 x mk3 1272cc spi (the red one was brought for £40 off a south african! the silver one was a right shed and i slammed it sideways into a pavement so i stripped it and sold the shell.)

1 x mk3 GT (Mclovins satin black old one - unfortunately met a nasty end with a postvan the blind idiot postie!!!)

1 x mk3 G40 (current)

in the middle of that lot, i lost the plot and defected to ford!

1 x 1.4 spi escort which i brought from a woman banger racer. She didnt put the engine in right (dont ask!) and the gearbox divorced the car = expensive so i scrapped it! Only cost £50 anyway!

1 x 1.8 escort which i brought as i needed wheels! Hated it totally so i was happy when i snapped the cambelt racing a evo 7!

hopefully getting another mk2 bready to run alongside the G40.
