Right, this has taken me days to get these pics together, and please bear in mind this is only a snap shot of the cars I have owned 

My first car, a 1.0 MG Metro Look alike 

My second car, oooh a REAL MG 

Next came a Metro TURBO!! How flash was I, and all in the space of nine months! No pics im afraid 
Had a few 'cheap' to insure runabouts after the insurance bubble burst around 92-93

Next came a 1.7 Renault 5 GTX, this car was quick!


A few years and a few cars past then came my Vauxhall phase 
My Nova SR (I'd wanted one of these for years!) And my Brand spanking new Corsa SRi

Calibra 16v - heated Leather seats! I had arrived 

Again a few years past, most noteable absantees that I have no pics of include, P306 XSI, Renault 19 16V, MK4 Golf 1.8t GTi and more than a few Iv'e probably forgotten! 
Family runabouts



My immaculate Accord Type R 


Puma 1.7 - Great car! Mrs Greenouse loved this one 

And of course my last GTI which is now being well cared for by Markymark AKA Flora

After a couple of years it was only the rust holding it together, but it was my first 'proper' fast car I'd love to have a go in one now to compare.

[Top Cat]

They were pretty fast at the time i had one of these straight after and ther was nothing in it performance wise.

[Phil Mcavity]

I owned a Black D reg XR3i in Black, absolutley loved it untill i blew the gearbox in it, went to a scrap yard and fitted a Orion 1600i gearbox think cus it had the same engine, the gearbox would be the same, but the gear ratio's were different and it changed the way she drove!!.

Happy days

[NeilM]

Nice to see you (mature) chaps were also brought up on a diet of XR3/XR2/RS turbo's, will anyone be tempted by the new RS? In white obviously.

[Greeners]

I never had a fast Ford, closest I came was a Fiesta SuperSport that I 'nearly' bought 

[Phil Mcavity]

i wouldnt mind a test drive in the New Rs, not ruling it out

My Dad worked for Ford at Halewood for over 30 years you use to be able to order a bottom of the range car usually an escort,then get a build number and go around the factory with your car watching it getting built and adding all the top of the range bits,and also you were able to give it extra coats of paint and underseal. Them where the days 
The newest fords are great drivers cars in my opinion they make great handling cars no doubt, but overall they are one step behind the japs and 2 behind the germans.
