1994 BMW 325i

1995 Mitsubishi FTO - Current, but shared with my dad, just cos lol

2000 Rover 25 1.4 - Also current. Bought to go see the ex down south, but kept after breaking up with her and i use it as a daily driver

I've also had loads, but started with

 

a collection of mk1 fiestas peaking at an XR2

 

then discovered the XR3i lol

 

that made me buy an RS Turbo which was the worst car in the world lol, but I was hooked on turbos so it made me buy a

 

Rover GSI Turbo which was awesome and so modern in comparison, but I was now over 200bhp which only meant one thing, to turn to Jap so I got my

 

Pulsar GTi-R which was fun but a bit small so I turned to a

 

UK 300zx Twin Turbo manual, always been my dream car so I was well happy. But then decided to go out and buy a

 

Mine's R32 GTR but that and the 300zx were too much so sold the Z lol. Especially as I was only 22 and had 700bhp sat on the drive. A year later I wanted to clear some finances so sold the GTR, but couldnt go into a slow shitty car, so to help me on my come down I bought my second

 

300zx Twin Turbo manual. A short while later I was trying to find a house and then got told I was losing my job so I had no choice but to sell the Z :cry: I then tried the 'dub' scene and bought a

 

VW Corrado, but that wasn't for me... put it up for swaps on ebay, and someone swapped it for a

 

Skyline GTST Auto - it was great and worth lots more than the corrado but a GTST is still no Z lol. Tried the yank scene and bought a

 

Dodge D100 V8 but that was too noisy and big lol. So after settling into a new job I bought a

 

project 300zx twin turbo manual which I decided to use for spares and bought another

 

300zx Twin Turbo manual which is the red one I have now lol. Along with an Alfa 156 which is my daily drive but I love it.
