    my car list goes as follows
    (1)2006-2007 , 1999 vw polo 1.0L ,<-cheap and cheerful first car should have kept it,downside was i crashed it into a lamppost

    (2)2007-2008 , 2000 vw passat 1.6l<-great old car but the drive got kinda boring so I ugraded to the 06 tdi expecting the same reliability:mad:

    (3)2008-end 2008,2006 vw passat 1.9 Tdi<-turbo/intercooler/fuel pump failure after a few months so i downgraded :eek::eek: was a deadly car up until then tho

    1999 Fiesta 1.25 zetec-great car full stop. Should've kept it just for a thrash about now and then

    2004 Focus 1.4 Collection-lovely car apart from the engine. Was too underpowered and thirsty. Really miss a sunroof too. One of the best gear changes of any car. Only sold it because it was a disaster with electrical problems. Obviously a monday morning car the bloody thing broke my heart!

    2006 SEAT Leon 1.6 S Sport-Up-really happy with this one,77k and counting. Loads of kit-really has everything. Looks the dogs with the sport-up pack. Has proven to be reliable bar an air con compressor fixed under warranty. Looks good, is quiet, comfy and peppy enough for what it is. It's as hard as a rock on bad roads though and drinks a lot when you press on a bit. Next car will be a diesel FR

    There was a thread on this started a long time ago, it still pops up occasionally. Maybe a search would dig it up?

    85 BMW 320i Coupe - My first Bimmer, burgundy with BMW multi-spoke alloys
    92 Mitsui Lancer 1.5 DOHC - surprisingly fast and well equipped little machine
    88 BMW 325i Coupe - Demon, sideways demon!
    89 Toyota Supra 3.0 S6 - Great Fun!
    90 Toyota Supra 3.0 Twin Turbo - Mental Car!
    94 Toyota Celica 2.0 (Was daily while I burned rubber in the Supra's!)
    97 BMW 323i M-Tech Coupe
    99 Audi A4 S-Line Avant 2.5L TD - well equipped but diesel!
    97 BMW 523i M-Tech - nice enough motor but well bored with it.
    79 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 6.6L - the weekend beast!

    Would like to change the daily for a 728/735 and I will let the beast go for the right 'Stang or Chally whenever it comes along and I can afford it!

    Pug 406 Coupe - very comfortable and lovely ride but under powered
    Merc E320 - nice enough car but very underpowered for it's engine size
    Alfa 156 - great car, pitty they fall apart
    R21 Turbo - loved this car but it locked me in on more then one occasion!
    Sierra Cosworth - Mental car but had the bollocks driven outta it (surprise!?!)

    There's lots more but that's all I can think of right now............
