    Re: car you have owned

    Passed in 1994

    1985 Renault 5 GTL 1.1 (handled like a boat, literaly)
    1987 Nova 1.2 (well.. I liked them back then)
    1984 Renault 11 Turbo (Phase 1) Silver (sold to get phase 2)
    1987 Renault 11 Turbo (phase 2) White (sold to get Suzuki Jeep)
    1990 Suzuki Jeep Sj413 (sold on to get an AX GT)
    1990 Citroen AX GT (sold on as I missed turbo power although fun for what it was)
    1989 Renault 11 Turbo (Phase 2)Silver (what a beast, but after 4 years being on the south coast it rotted away despite mechanically perfect)
    1998 Peugeot 306 GTi-6 (bought when I hit a deer in the 11Turbo, but got bored with it quick so sold on)
    1987 Renault 11 Turbo (Phase 2)Black (bought as a second 11Turbo then sold on)
    1989 Renault 11 Turbo (Phase 2)white (bought as a 3rd 11 Turbo then sold on)
    1993 Pulsar GTi-R (had it 4 years and still going strong, absolutely love it, no plans to change, only major issue was blown gearbox within 7 miles of buying the car, and a recent blowup of the standard turbo, apart from that its just had general wear and tear and never let me down)

    Would like to get another 11Turbo as a second car, keep it standard and turn it into a minter.

    Good post! Well i first off started as a Ford-boy as follows:
    1. My 1st car an 'L' reg Fiesta 1.8 (not even TD!) Escort 55 van's would beat me on pickup from lights
    2. Fiesta XR2i-that started me into this crazy world of car-modding!!
    3. Series 2 RS Turbo in diamond white "F" plate- got pulled over twice in one night coming home from a club...cleeean on the outside but more tinworm than a scrapyard underneath!
    4. Rover 416 (Loool!)
    5. R5 GT Turbo ph2 black-now lives in Portsmouth and is on P'Heads for sale! http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1365299.htm
    6. Rover 620 (what was it and them Rovers!)
    7. Nissan 200sx S13
    8. Audi A3
    9. Nissan 200sx S13 X2 and then, finally after 4 long years!...
    10. My current R5 GT Turbo!
    Cars i would love to own:
    • Renault 5 Turbo 2 (of course!!)
    • The "Original BadBoy" whale-tail Sierra Cosworth whale-tail in diamond white (thats going back to my Ford roots)
    • E46 M5... i could go on and on and on but i wont
