This is what happens when ya get stuck in on Sat Night!

 

Who can beat this then??- 26 cars in 16 years = 1 car for every 7 months since I been driving!! I am sure now I have the Zed, this will stop!

 

Crappyest car me owned= Morris Ital (bought it in the dark- the smartass had painted it with matt emulsion so first spot of rain, had white puddles round it! :rofl: )

 

Nicest car (apart from zed) = Jag XJ6 4.0- very smooth- still a bird puller, but a bit arfur daley!

 

Fastest car (apart from zed) = Cav SRI 2.0- t'was a beastie

 

So come on, let the skeletons out of the closet for your pre-zed years :)

Nice one Sideshow, me started in an ALL-AGRO too- I inherited it when I was 14- it sat in the the garage every day saying drive me so I sneeked out in it when I was 15 while bunking off school. Scary sh$t eh! The things you do when your young and have no common sense eh!

 

Me also had a Datsun 120A FII- kinda looked like a mini zed come to think of it now.

 

I bet I win the competition on how many cars scrapped- as most were all bangers!

Well, I wrote a list of 21 cars, then Real Player decided it was due an update & so forced a shut down of my web browser :mad:

Needless to say the software has been eradicated & will never be seen again on my PC!

I was designing a advert for the missises website last night to go in FHM, spent about 3/4 of an hour on it before realising I hadnt saved it yet, went to save it and the bstad crashed! :mad: I thumped the keyboard and proceed to the fridge to get a :duffer: 4 pack.

I've gone for quality not quantity.....

 

Renault 5 GT Turbo...at 18 years old I got pulled over twice a week at least by the pork chops. Loved that car though but drove like a nutter in it.

Audi Coupe Quattro 20V.....excellent build quality, sounded nice too.

E36 BMW.....kitted this one up but really it was all show and no go.

300ZX fav to date without a doubt.

Golf GTI 8V mk2 second car for cheap insurance on Z and for surfing missions!
