Nice, what was it like to drive?

Best car I drove when I was 18 was probably either an RS6 or Porsche 911. At the time I had a Mk2 Ibiza 1.4 :rofl:

didn't pass my test to i was 21 years 354 days old , rode me pushbike everywhere

The best car I drove on the other hand would probably be an M5 working for BMW....

84 'A' reg AlfaSud 1.5 Ti Green Cloverleaf.

Was an awesome car, handled fantastically, went really fast for a 1.5 but then it did have big valve heads, Autodelta cams, twin weber carbs and a large bore exhaust on fully blueprinted and balanced engine!

Absolutely pasted any of the other cars of it's time, (Astra gte, Ecort rs turbo etc) but it didn't stop very well, bl**dy inboard brake discs, I had planned to convert it to outboard discs from an Alfa 33 but I killed it before I had the chance!

Minted '89 mk2 xr2, f****** loved that car!!!!!!

Audi 90 2.3E - The best car I ever owned..

Simca 1100 - bet many many havn't even heard of that!. Was a French produced member of the Chrysler family I think. - last see wrapped round a bridge!!

1963 Triumph Herald 12/50.

1988 VW polo. 1.05l (yes 1049cc) of pure adrenalin filled power. it managed to do over 100mph once, admittedly it was downhill with a tailwind :rofl:

At 18 I was driving around in my Dads Vauxhall Astra 1.6 16V :)

at 18 it was a mix of a 1989 metro GTa(the MG type not the newer shape 16v) and a brand new 1.0 12v corsa my first ever brand new car, wasn't my last but unless i win a massive amount of money i doubt i'll buy new again :)
