Your first car crush?

[Marc-5-GTI]

Mine has always been a imperial blue Ford Escort Cosworth.

Same as that, albeit I wanted a Mallard Green car.

Hopefully one day, albeit I do wonder if it would be a classic 'never meet your heroes' car 

Yeah must admit that was close to being my choice but I loved the 205 just before that. Still remember the first Escort Cossie I ever saw as a 17yr old in 1992, it was a Mallard green one and it took pride of place in CG Ford Carlisle's front window. Never actually been in one but know people who have and still to this day say they are a brilliant car.
If I ever won the lottery I have always said and still stand by it that it'd be the first big thing I bought.

Always get dead happy when someone mentions cumbria...

Are you from Carlisle???

My dad used to take me to the Earls Court international motorshow when I was little and the car I remember being smitten by first was this one.....


De Tomaso Pantera GT

Ax GT 500 ....lol

Volvo 850R.... The yellow one!

They didnt do a yellow 850R, that was a T5-R 

This is my old 850R though, manual, Rica tuned, straight through exhaust system, Eibach springs, just under 300bhp and licked flames on over run.

I would've loved a T5-R bit even then it was out of reach. First proper car crush was a 309 GTI, never did get to own one but I did have a 309GL! :)
Last of the carburettored 1.4s and it was bloody awful.

Mate of mine had an RS1600i and another mate had a mk2 Edition One (the LHD only G60 mk2). I had a lot to live up to.

I Loved that car kids have a lot to answer for.

As I'm fairly young my car crush was an E46 M3:)

Then went on to MK5 GTi with 18" polished Monzas
