love how a lot of the lists go from quick fun and sometimes lethal to safe as houses

mines pretty short:-

2000 Toyota Carina II 1.6 saloon 1990 (parents old one)
2002 VW Jetta 1.8 - 1988 I think
2004 Toyota Corolla Estate 1.3 - 1993
2007 Peugeot 205 1.8 diesel - 1994
2009 Subaru Legacy Estate 2.0 petrol - 2004

EDIT - favourite - subaru by a country mile, though the 205 was immense fun at times. the jetta got me round new zealand, so we have a special relation, but it wasn't my fave car.

Yamaha RD250E
Ford Capri 2.0S
Rover 214SEi
Nissan NX100
VW Golf Mk4 1.6SE
and now have
BMW 330Ci M Sport - and it's ace

After the Capri I spent many years being driven round by my better halves. Meant I could drink and get merry lol. My place of employment has only been about a mile away so never really needed a car so the wife used to have the car all the time and I spent my money on my bikes.

Hi Ski, answer is yes! but its staying here!! Well its pretty much as they came but with very mild engine mods, to run unleaded of course, just makes it a bit smother and a little quicker, and some decent shox.

just wish I had a few more tokens.... an early 70s 911 2.4S, late Elan Coupe, Lancia Fulvia Zagato, and ultimately a Stratos, had a chance of a low milage for £5K - those where the days.......
