Ford Escort MK3 1.4 ghia in gold-----blown engine
Ford Escort 1.3 popular in blue-------sold it
Citreon AXGT---silver---loved this car decked on white comp Mo's....kept it for 4 years.

Corsa 1.6 sport


Vectra 2.5 V6 SRi----regretted selling this



Corsa 2.0(was so much fun)




NOW
Volvo S40 T4









out them all loved the 2.0 for the fun and surprise aspect
vectra nice big and comfy and quite fast
But i have to say my fav is the T4, leather interior,all the toys,0-60 6.7 secs and 200bhp...looking better all the time

Mav i think you have very good taste when it comes to modding without looking ott.

All of the above cars look top notch

CCA is correct....youve had so many beautifal, subtle cars. u do a good job in modifying. loving the vectra though, thats a beauty. the gsi was always a favourite, n now the T4 looks spot on.

done mate

Lovely cars....all of them (specially the veccy)

one thing i have always wondered, when photographers take pics of cars, why do they not get rid of the rubbish laying around, really spoils a picture IMO (sort it out ross )

I'm hoping to be up at Dastek this Saturday with VVOC for the RR day so you'll be able to see you're pride and joy in it's current 'state' and you'll be even more depressed about selling it..

Is your number still the same? (Ending in 5645)

Not sure if i'm able to make it yet though as i'm out clubbing on the Friday night for mates bday and i need to leave home by 5am on the Saturday morning.. (If there's loads of people out on Friday i'll come home early, but don't wanna drop out incase there's not many others out etc)..

Got the new wheels on and they look mint, but bodyshop are dragging their heels with the wing/bumper repair and car not been cleaned for about 2 months on the outside and 6 months on the inside...

Not had chance yet, just got them fitted on Friday night and i slept throughtout the daylight hours on Saturday (5am - 6pm ) and was too busy yesterday and forgot all about it. Back at work today... I'll try and get some at lunch time at work tomorrow..

If things go my way in December at court, i might keep it. Seeing it with new plates and new wheels has kinda changed my feelings about it now.. It's like a personal touch that i've added and with plans ongoing to get it fixed, i feel like i'm going to love it once again.. Just hoping that the bad luck doesn't return - over 2 months now with a clean slate!
