R5 GTT running far too much boost for a standard block.

then one day EVERYTHING decided to pack up. all at once. owned it for 3 months.

Then a 1.0 12v Corsa. 3 cylinder, it sounded like an old air-cooled 911.....pmsl!

Then traded that in after 4 months and bought a brand new Dynamique.

Then my 172.

Scooby sti type R or V6 next.
 


mk2 fiesta 1.1 ghia - which i wrote off after two weeks on the road, it was only then i realised what a heap id bought !

only cost £600 though.

Loved that car.

R reg Corsa 1.2 Breeze was in very good nick but couldnt have been slower if it tried. Smacked it into a barrier and a Micra 8 months and 10k after getting it. Makes me appreciate the clio so much more!
 
  car? need a license 1st!


I had a Vauxhall Nova 1.2 Expression, in red, with white wheel trims. 4 gears.

Had it for 12 months, ran the thing into the ground, and sold it to some guy from Bury for £260 on ebay.

In its time, it had managed to get mk1 Astra GTE alloys on, 2 of which i burnt the tyres out on, so ran around on steelies on the front and 14" alloys on the back for about 3 months, still i got a full set of nova GTE alloys. The seats broke, so i replaced them with a set of seats from a 5 door (they didnt fold forward, made getting in the back difficult). The paint faded really well.. I bought a universal fit Rage 3" oval back box off my mate, then fit it myself, which made it loud, then it got nicked while i was at college one day, didnt realise it was gone until i got back home that evening, ever driving home without it on, sounded similar.

God i loved that car. Was still running when i got rid of it!

The i had a white 1.4SR for about 2 months, then my Black 1.4 Clio S, which some of u might have seen.. and now my current Clio RT :)

Mk 1 VW Polo 1.3 - GAA 104S. Rusty silver. Damage to front and rear. Two "beyond economic repair" payouts. Did about 130k before it died. Was my parents, then my sisters, then mine, and finally my missus. Last 50k done with no air filter and keeping speed below 60mph due to worn valve guides causing back pressure in sump resulting in oil coming up the sump breather pipe (despite adding extra baffles) into the air box.

In the end sold it for £50 to a bloke for his son as a project after the starter motor died. My wife took half the money the cheeky moo :cry:
 
  MERCEDES CLS AMG


MK1 RS turbo custom - 17yr old and the insurance was £495.00 tpft - the good old days before it quadrupled back in 92
 


Renault 5 Gt turbo. H plater and it was totally immaculate not a mark on it. FSH, loads of receipts no rust took 6 months to find a good one and i still miss it now.
 
  Boxster S


A red D plate Renault 5 1.1TL. Loved it until the last 6 months of its life when it only ran on 3 cylinders.

And the exhaust was blowing.
The wipers didnt work.
The heaters packed up.
The stereo packed up.
It wouldnt start in the cold.
Or damp.

Metro 1.0 City but it I only had it for 2 weeks because it wouldnt pass the MOT without £800 of work! Bought it from Leeds and the salt from the winter had made it rot like a pear!

Then got an Escort 1.3 which was my proper 1st car.
