First car - 2001 Corsa SXi 1.2 16v. Learnt to drive in this then drove it for 18months. The 02 plate one was my brothers SXi DTi but he now as an Astra GSi Turbo



2003 Corsa SRi 1.4 16v. Great car which died when it was 10months old due to someone turning in from of me in Aberdeen






1990 Fiesta XR2i. Had this as a second car, resprayed the boot and bonnet removing the lower boot spoiler and put a 1.8 zetec engine in it but sold it soon after.


2004 Corsa SRi 1.4 16v. Insurance replacement for the old one which had sport pack 2 fitted. Again was a great car but now im 21 sold it for something quicker.




1989 Nova SR. Bought this in Dec 2004 and work has never really stopped in it since then just doing things here and there but just mot'd it again. Was resprayed a few months ago but its not been polished yet. Used it 3 times at knockhill on hot hatch days and planning going again soon.









2006 Astra VXR 2.0 16v Turbo. Picked this up last friday and not got any good pics yet. Looking forward to it being run but enjoying driving it anyway.

Done around 300 miles in it so not put my foot down yet but normal driving is alot better than the corsa due to the extra power low down. Its seems to stick to the road well and half leather recaro's are comfy. Cant wait till its run in to see what its really like

the venoms came on the car which cost £120 but the xr2i was quite good to drive. handling was really good but it didnt have much power but still fun to jump into that compared to the 1.4 sri. Learnt alot working on that as well
