A  black 2005 Peugeot 206 1.1 s I pretty much turned it into a rally car with the help of the website specialtuning uk witch specialise in Peugeot Citroen rally parts! Everything but the engine was changed so I had a car that stopped and handled amazing but was so slow it took 16.4 seconds to get from 0-60  :laugh: best 4 years of my life doing all the work to that car as a teenager!

My first car was 1.6 Saxo VTR, paid £700 for it at the time but had about 130k on the clock (was impatient, wanted to drive) so got it and needless to say the crankshaft snapped 3 months later and I sold it without and engine for £600 so didnt work out to bad I suppose.

Drove my mums punto while in sixth form, as soon as I got my first job at 18 I purchased an 18 month old bravo HGT 2.0 20v.  Loved that car, stunning engine.

Looked like this one... have no actual pics :sad1:
