Got given an Audi 80 as my first car, it was shit and scrapped it after a couple of weeks. Bought a Corsa 1.2 8v for my first proper car, got it from a dealer and got 2 years free insurance. Then I found corsasport, had it for 7 years.









Bought an MR2 mk1 with a mate for trackdays -

Hosted on Fotki

then Corsa got smashed into so I stripped it of parts and we binned off the mr2 as it was too expensive running 2 cars. Bought a VX220 Turbo, my best car.

crashed it though Bought a heap of shit hyundai thing while insurance was sorted out then got my current VX-

Bebo.com
(Mine does include motorbikes too)Started off with this - Yamaha Jog R:

[Google Image]



Until I was 17 then bought this off my (at the time) gf's dad for £300

[Google Image]



That stayed on my drive didnt move at all for a whole year sold it and went to get a 125cc Motorbike

[Google Image]



Until I got annoyed with it so much becuase kept having problems with the exhaust flange so done a swap plus cash my way for my Vauxhall Corsa 5dr B



Until I passed my test and 6 months later i wrote it off.



5 days later I went and got a VW Polo 6n2



Got bored of it after a few years with the gearbox/clutch going every 6 months and bought this 55 plate for £3995




but even getting bored with this now and thinking about something like:

Started off learning to drive in a 1997 Rover 100. Bought it off my mum. Only drove it a few times tbh until I passed then went to uni so sold it!

Not my actual car!


Then when I left uni I got a brand new 2003 Corsa 1.2 SXI. Loved it. Fitted a Piper back box

Again not my actual car!


Then got an ex demo 2005 Astra SRI CDTI 150 XP.



Then my pride & joy. 2008 Astra VXR. Was looking at ex demo but got a good deal and got a brand new one.





Then my current car. Ex demo 2010 Audi A4 S-line. Totally different beast. Love it, but still miss my VXR.

When I past in 2004 I had my first car, The Butane Beaut

Library pic:



Then after doing my Pass Plus, I went crazy for my first Corsa, a 1996 1.4 16v in white and fitted some big 17's:



Then spent ££££ having this wild kit fitted:



and then with a different front:



After stuggling to sell it and losing a cool 5k, I got myself a mint 1995 GSi:



Made it low with Cesaro's:





Then onto something different, a 2000 VTS in white:



Lowered, wheels, blah blah....hated it:





It was made famous from its exhaust note

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jdxDIL1xOM

Then came the best car ever, my Metro run around:



Which accompanied my Corsa Turbo build from this:



To this:







After a farewell, along came my first 'proper' car, 2005 LCR. Still miss it, cracking car:







And now, onto bigger and better things my 2005 Evo VIII FQ340 MR
