Post by fiatpandaman Tue Aug 24, 2010 8:38 pm

I was brought up in a petrol head family, its in my blood Very Happy
Always one condition however, if you couldn't fix it your self your not having it! Not a bad thing by all accounts as garage rates are on the steep side! more to the point as I spend all day in front of a PC its nice to do something real?

I started of on bikes, First being a :

Yamaha DT50 What a epic peace of crap that was, never wanted to start, incredibly slow, wish I still had it! as one of that age is worth money now
Suzuki GT125 air ram Lovely bike but too small
Honda 125 The exact model was unknown as it was a import, it had a full touring fairing (Africa twin style) but with a with a Honda nsr engine. This bike was to spell the last of bikes for some time as I passed my car test at 18

Cars

Nova 1.1 but never got on the road because of insurance costs
Panda 1ltr fire learned to drive and passed in this car! I love old fiats Very Happy (was dora? out of 2.5 children car before it was mine)
Pug 205 GT Loved this thing to bits but the grass is always greener
Opal manta GTE died of rust Crying or Very sad
Open Manta 1.8 berleneta? hated this car sold
Ford xr3i I put this though a hedge one week after replacing the engine on the drive Sad
Ford orion Hey, its a car
Honda Civic 1.5 LSI vtec doch boaring.......
Supra mk3 n/a My first real petrol head car, I loved this thing but running costs and insurance made me see sense
Mini 1275 GT clubman Never ever own one again, lovely car but crippling to drive
Pug 205 SR (same as the GT but differnt reg) Loved to hate this car but for all its dents, it was a trooper and got me out of a hole. And was quick!
Fiat Bravo 1.8 HGT this was a brothers car sold to me, great car but dented if you even looked at it in the wrong way
Mk2 Mr2 rev1 Loved this thing to bits but sold as diagnosed with crohn's and needed a big opp

At this point I get fuzzy so the next few may not be in order

Celeca GT4 185 shape, never have one again
Suziki vitara wide boy! No comment
Passat vr6 cone noise shape, would have another one like a shot
Mr2 mk2 rev2 uk didnt like it
Celeca GT 205 shape, didnt like it
Mr2 mk2 rev3 jap auto, broke broke, broke some more, evil car
20v non turbo Fiat coupe, died as bonnet flipped up at 70mph needed a change of underwere that day!
20v non turbo Fiat coupe, sold as I found a 16vt
16vt (turbo) fiat coupe, Sold as heavy on fuel and wanted a change
Scoda fab! put several dents in this for fun, sold it for more than I paid for it, currently spec for a scooby ralley team in wales
Toyota Mr2 mk1 rev a sold to release some money, put a lot of work in to this car and loved every second of it
Fiat Coupe 20vt sold to release some money (same time as mr2)
Fiat bravo 155 HGT sold, bought back, sold, bought back, sold, expecting it back any time soon!!!!
Fiat coupe 20vt "the bee" sold as I had my fill of coupes
Mr2 roadster (mk3) loved being a poser in this but not very good on motorway
Fiat panda 4x4, restoring at the moment never going to sell this, 1984 mk1 original, reckoned to be one of the earliest on the road (current)
Fiat 500 2008 got to be sensible right? (current)
Jag xj8 sport (current)
Fiat sci 1.1 sporting! (current)

Wow, I think its possible I forgot one or two in the list. Needless to say I think i have a excessive car history. you never know until you try them all though!
