Sadder that just remmembering the cars I can remember the number plates of each ,how long I had them, how much they cost and what I sold for.
first 1 was 22 years ago
Chrysler Alpine r reg 160 400,
Fiat 126 w reg 400 450,
Fiat 127 sport t reg 700 wrote off twice,
Mini 1000, M reg 250 400
Fiat 127 T reg 400 650,
Fiat 127 Sport w reg 150 450,
Escort 1600 ghia, y reg 1200 wrote off
Escort 1600 Ghia, y reg 1800 scrapped after 10 years
Alfa Sud, a reg 225 450
Alpine, T reg free 350
BMW 318i, C reg 3000 800
Panda, d reg free 500 trade in
BMW735i, C reg 1200 1500
Daimler 250, old g reg 600 400
Mazda 626, K reg 7000 5000 trade in
Honda Prelude, l reg 12000 still got it
BMW 735i, 500 1000 trade in the same day
Ford sierra 4x4 donor, d reg 75 locost donor,
Mazda MX6 j reg import 7500 700 trade in,
Merc c280 Sport, t reg 12500 still got it
Cinqicento M reg free still got it.
The last 4 I still have.
Best 1 is a difficult choise,
The Fiat 127 was my fisrt sports car (70hp), the 126 was hillarious to drive as it was rear wheel drive and once you hit 60 it cornered like a train
and you really had to drive it to get passed anything.
The MX6 was the 200 hp import and was the cheapest to run for the 7 years I had it but the Merc is just smooth and comfy and the V6 drinks the
fuel.
I think the Merc must be the best (until the Locost that is...)

Learnt to drive in a Fiat Uno Diesel,
passed my test in a Vauxhall Astra Merit 1.2,
got a Volvo 360GLT with RWD and 2.0l engine in lower 6th form,
then a Honda Accord Aerodeck 2.2 in upper 6th form,
then I went to uni in a Fiat Uno 55S,
then when I sank that in the Atlantic I sold it,
and bought a Mini Convertible, that someone stole the roof off, so I sold that,
and bought an Audi 80 Sport, which had bent suspension so I sold it,
and bought a Rover 216 Vitesse, which was horrible, so I sold and
bought a Fiat Uno Turbo with a BBR kit on it,
then I finished uni and went home in a second Audi 80 Sport. Then I got a proper job, instead of selling cars, so I bought a VW Sicrocco, which was
so bad my boss used to hire me a Mondeo to go to meetings in. Then I bought a Pug 106XSi, which was great.
Then I started on company cars,
Audi A3 Automatic 1.6l
Renault Laguna Automatic 2.0l
VW Passat 1.9tdi 130bhp Estate
Currently an Audi A4 TDi and an Indy!
17 and one on the way!
