My carstory!

18 cars in 9 years!

Car #1 The first car I got when I passed back in 2003 was a 1986 Ford Orion 1.6CL with a complete RS bodykit, this car however went to the highway in the sky after I crashed it into a late 80's Mazda 626.

Car #2 was a super-comfy 1987 Toyota Camry 2.0 XLI, this also went to the motorway in the sky after I crashed it in a tree late one winter night.

Car #3 car brings us to a 1989 VW Polo 1.3 Fox in which a woman rearended me while I was waiting for a green light, I told her what I thought and got her info.

Car #4 brings us to a 1988 VW Golf GL, this was a great car to drive but I never really felt safe in it for some reason and that brings us to..

Car #5: A 1994 Renault 19, All I want too say about it was that it was the worst pile of crap ever to have 4 wheels!

Car #6: Was a 1986 Volvo 740 GL now this I felt safe in mainly because it was built like a tank but as with all my cars so far there was a catch with it, this one burned up £100 in petrol in 6 days so I sold it.

Car #7: A 1995 Opel/Vauxhall Tigra, had that for a year before selling it cheap just to get rid of it.

Car #8: 1991 Volvo 240 GL.... Another pile of crap!

Car #9: 1998 Opel/Vauxhall Vectra Estate, greatest car I have owned! drove 55.000km in 10 months (don't know how many miles that is) until the headgasket broke

Car #10: 1989 VW Corrado G60: 220bhp monster! Perfect as a trackcar, not so much as a normal roadgoing vehicle..

Car #11: 1988 Volvo 760 GLE I miss (I did some research and found it had the all swedish B280F engine) but I could not afford to own a car that used close to £600 in petrol every month.

Car #12: A 1985 Volvo 240 All I care to say is thank God I found a guy stupid enough to buy it.

Car #13: 1995 Volvo 460, great car real fast for a 2.0 but everything needed replacing on it.

Car #14: 1997 Renault Megane Coupè 1.6... Cheap to run and insure.

Car #15: 1996 VW Passat 2.0 estate... Great car to drive and pulls like mad for a stock 2.0!

Car #16: 1988 Mercedes 230TE.. 134hp 2.3 8V.

Car #17: 1996 VW Polo 1.6!
Wanted a car that would be cheaper to run and insure, enough said!

Car #18: 1996 Toyota Corolla 1.3 (current car - 08.11.12)
Bought this from my boss and I love it! :-D

Thanks for looking!

Volvo 460! classic, i work for a volvo specialist so ive driven a few and your right they are pretty fast for what they are. The engine originally came from Renault too

jason

Maybe you could tell me why my 760 was so slow then it had the 156hp engine (B280E or F not sure)

hhhmm, they are normally not to bad those, most ive driven with the 156bhp engine feel quicker than the power suggests so im not sure......under boosting mabe?

jason

You have had some cars in your time and a few accidents VW Corrado G60 bet that went quite well such a nice lookin car

The Corrado G60 went almost too well, the stock power output of that was 160hp, mine had 220 and it had the handling to match the power..

id say the g60 was the best car youve owned, but then again i would say that being a dub fan

The best car I ownd was actually the Vauxhall Vectra estate even though it was only a 116hp 1.8 16v engine I had lots of fun with it

Ill take the G60 instead please lol, i had a friend with a G60 and his was running around 220bhp....he always said it was bloody quick!
