Hi all

My first couple of cars were Micra's one was a S plate and one was a 03 plate. After having problems with the 03 plate I went and bought a focus. Afraid I do not have pics due to not having a digital camera at that time!

Here is mine and if you can see in the drive you will see SWMBO's focus which we also traded in to get the vRS.

Last pic of the focus with SWMBO before we traded her in

The new vRS only 2 hours old!!!

And the car in it's current state of affairs

1 - Citreon AX debut 1.0, died in a head on collision with a Rover 25

2 - Peugeot 106 1.0, died when the handbrake cable snapped and it rolled down the drive into the side of the house

3 - VW Polo Mk3 Breadvan 1.1

Had straight through exhaust, Poloace chip, k&n induction kit, lowered 40mm, alloys from a golf mk2 found in the scrappy. Apparently it's not long died. Not bad as when I sold it it had done 95000 and there was heat coming from behind the speedo.

4 - VW Golf mk3 TDI

Straight through exhaust, k&n induction kit, shiny wolfrace wheels, headlights, indicators, the lovely bonnet bra and a full respray back to it's original flame red. I was sorry to see it go but it got my £800 off my fabia!! (not bad as it had done 126000)

here goes

since 1987ish

1.7 Morris Marina coupe - L reg, paid £90 with 6 months tax and full MOT

mark 1 escort estate - E reg, green, lovely car

hillman avenger estate - H reg - held the boot up with a broom handle

hillman avenger - K reg

cavalier 1.6 saloon A reg

mini metro - can't remember reg

Rover 414 sli - G reg - old man's car

1977 Bay

Mark 4 golf 1.8T - T reg

Mitsibishi Delica - still got it, L reg

Mark 2 golf 1.8 kjetronic - D reg

Renault Megane 1.9dci - sh*te

Fabia vrs

Hi all

Last pic of the focus with SWMBO before we traded her in

You traded in your SWMBO? :eek:

First car was a white Metro City 1.0

Followed by a Cobalt Blue '95 Micra

Then it got more interesting:

Audi 90 Sport 2.3 5 cylinder

Followed by this car which was okay, bit too grown up for me:

Audi A4 SE 2.4 V6

I replaced that with an R reg black Mondeo for a year to cut down on running costs.

The traded that for the Skoda which I still have, and brought with me to NZ:

A year or so later I bought the project car:

Audi Coupe Quattro 2.2 5 cyl

It really never got finished, and it broke down every time I drove it, but it was ace!

Love the Quattro Rob. Beautiful.
