I think since I passed my test going back 15 yrs ago I have owned roughly 32-33 cars! :lol: So i kind of smashed that stat up!

I learnt how to drive in one of those disgusting station wagon VW Polo's and it was my first car for about 2 months, but it wasnt wise for street cred! :lol:

I use to do alot of swaps with mates, adverts and ebay and stuff! Started in Fiesta XR2's when they were all the rage and owned 3 of them at the same time at one point! Moved on to a couple of peugeot 206 GTi's onto to escort 3i's and a convertible one, before I got on to my faster turbo charged cars I owned a cavalier, astra, calibra, VW Golf (x2) and a mk3. I then started getting heavily involved doing up Renault 5 GT Turbo's had three of those at one time too, then came the bigger cars, The most fun one being a Nissan Pulsar GTi-R Jap Import pushing out 280bhp. I've had numerous amounts of cars in between and since, but I had to start this thread just out of interest after hearing the above stat!

Have to say, when I heard it - I pissed myself laughing thinking back at some of the cars and sheds I've owned! :lol:












Whoa! your too rich to have 32-33 cars in you man. Many man and women dreams to have one. But you rock! An astonishing 33 different cars in all. Wow what can i say i think you have all kinds and models. To old and to the new models even the simplest and to the hottest cars in the world. Right?


:?: :?: I'll have what ever your having Mr one post! :lol:

OK, here goes....

1, First car was a red Renault 4, pile of crap
2. Morris 1000 (Minor) Traveller, an ace car but not cool when you're 20!
3. Vauxhall Viva x 2. Unbreakable but also extremely shit
4 Ford Capri. Wawaweewa, the slags loved it!
4. Cavalier Coupe (same shape as a Manta) absolutely superb
5. Triumph Herald 13/60. Went through 4 clutches before finding out the axles weren't parallel!
6. Suzuki LJ80 van, Ace
7. Suzuki LJ80 soft top. More ace
8. Suzuki SJ410. The timing was right for this one as it snowed like hell and I was about the only person I knew who could get around. Never broke down and a good laugh.
9 Cavalier GL. Massive mileage but went well.
10 MGBGT, Bought a rough one, spent a fortune getting it restored, got bored, made huge loss
11.5 mondeos. great vaue
12 Race prepared Triumph TR7. Scarily quick,scarily unreliable
13 Vauxhall Astra, great car
14 Saab 9-3. Bought at auction, did 75000 miles and flogged it
15 Saab 9-3 but really fast one, have done 107k in it and it hasn't missed a beat.
16 zafira big tin box but useful.

Probably missed some out though!
