What did you drive before Clio’s

[SaxoKiller]

Just wondering what other people had before they moved on to Clios, I had a mini (shed) then a MG Metro (MG stands for Might Go) then a diesel 205, then my last car was a 309GTI (which was ace for the money).

My first car was an MG Turbo Metro in white!... Very fast when working, but gotto agree on the Might Go thing! Loved that little car tho.

Since then have driven a range of my Dads cars (all Rovers) and had a Peugeot 104 and and a 106GTi briefly while living in France 1999-2000. Then in 2001 bought myself a 1.2 dynamique, sunburst yellow. And now I have the Cup.
