My first car was a 1979 Fiesta 1.1s (no pictures unfortunately). Then, when I finished uni I bought myself what I thought would be a good run around (a 1993 Renault Laguna RT 2.0). The plan was always to get a TVR of some kind, but then I found Japanese turbo cars and got myself the following (this was in it's final guise - just before I sold it) ...

I had the GTI-R for about 4.5 years and REALLY enjoyed that car.
Basic spec was : Trust Induction with custom filter relocation kit, full de-silencer mongoose exhaust, forge dump valve, HKS AFR, Pace front mount intercooler, Blitz boost controller, AP Clutch, Samco Coolant hoses, magencor 8.5mm HT Leads, NISMO oil cooler, lots of polished pots (power steering, header tank, cusco oil catch tank, etc), GAB top adjustable suspension, 315mm brakes with Wilwood calipers, braided brake lines ... I think you get the idea.
Abbey Motorsport did all the work on that car for me and it was running just over 300hp at 1.1bar boost.
Being an Abbey Motorsport customer it wasn't long before i moved into Skylines - and bought myself an immaculate R32 GTR. I sold that to buy the Golf in September. This is how it looked just before i sold it ...

The Skyline I owned for 5.5 years and was just incredible. 440hp, around 380ft lb torque and an engine noise that I can't possibly put into words. Problem was, it was SO tidy I didn't want to use it or leave it anywhere, so it just got used for the odd drive now and then on at weekends and I felt it was a waste so finally decided to sell it on.
The Skylines basic spec was: Apexi Induction, full HKS exhaust (with front silencers removed), HKS F Con S engine management, HKS Boost controller, Tomei race fuel pump, exedy clutch, GT-SS turbo's, Apexi GT Intercooler, Apexi intercooler hard pipe kit, Abbey Oil Cooler Kit, Trust springs, R34 front brakes, lightweight "drag" wheels, lots of polished engine parts and so on (haven't got all the info to hand).
And now I have the GTI :happy2: A cracking car that is just lacking a bit of power. My warranty doesn't expire until around Sept. next year (as the dealer gave me a years full warranty as the 3 years are about to run out), so I expect I'll get it remapped at that point.

Had a mini cooper as my first car (no pics)
Then got a mazda rx8 (no pics again lol)
Missed the mini too much so after a year traded the rx8 in for a cooper s which looked like this when i got it

Was running around 240bhp and was a real pocket rocket. Really miss that car.

Im not into Mini's at all Luca, but that does look one mean Min!!! I bet you threw a few quid at that mate :happy2: :jumpmove:
-
Spent around £4k on it alltogether, was very pleased with the results and to me it was worth it. Was going to do big valve cylinder head and cams to get around the 270-280bhp mark but couldnt justify spending all that extra money.
Might get a cheap one next year and have it as a little project car to use at pod and to use at trackdays.

first car 1275 gt mini no pics. 2nd car a mk1 xr2 no pics 3rd mk3 astra gsi and yes no pics. then a mk3 gti (https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Frr224%2Fmadmangti%2FPicture298.jpg&hash=38e51b2647adfaadfa2e68c0325c4646ed01a3b8) then the lexus whitch i did love and kept it for 3 years.

That Mini looks sh*t hot Luca. I bet that went like stink, how do you compare it to your Eddy? :happy2: :jumpmove:
-
For noise, handling, and 1st, 2nd gear accelleration it would whoop my ed30 even with the revo and tbe. After 3rd gear the golfs torque and outright power would help the golf sail past the mini.
The mini just had bags of character but was a little hard to live with as an everyday car as it was really loud and the ride was pretty harsh.
Will try my best to get one next year as a little project car.
Heres a sounclip of a cooper s with similar mods to mine so you can see what mine sounded like :evilgrin:

After a couple of years it was only the rust holding it together, but it was my first 'proper' fast car :signLOL: I'd love to have a go in one now to compare.

They were pretty fast at the time i had one of these straight after and ther was nothing in it performance wise.

I owned a Black D reg XR3i in Black, absolutley loved it untill i blew the gearbox in it, went to a scrap yard and fitted a Orion 1600i gearbox think cus it had the same engine, the gearbox would be the same, but the gear ratio's were different and it changed the way she drove!!.
Happy days

don't have any pictures of my past cars really but the history goes like this
88 XR2 in metallic blue
89 Escort RS Turbo
93 XR3i
95 Renault 19 16v exec
97 Audi A3 turbo
93 Rover 416Sli (had a bit of an incident in the Audi :sad:)
2000 Audi S3
2005 Mk5 GTi
2007 Mk5 ED30 ( :sick:)
and today me S3
just thinkin there maybe some pics of the older stuff at my mums, I'll check :smiley:
-
Nice to see you (mature) chaps were also brought up on a diet of XR3/XR2/RS turbo's, will anyone be tempted by the new RS? In white obviously.
-
I never had a fast Ford, closest I came was a Fiesta SuperSport that I 'nearly' bought :grin:
-
i wouldnt mind a test drive in the New Rs, not ruling it out :innocent:

My Dad worked for Ford at Halewood for over 30 years you use to be able to order a bottom of the range car usually an escort,then get a build number and go around the factory with your car watching it getting built and adding all the top of the range bits,and also you were able to give it extra coats of paint and underseal. Them where the days :sleepy:
The newest fords are great drivers cars in my opinion they make great handling cars no doubt, but overall they are one step behind the japs and 2 behind the germans. :party:

Being only 22, I haven't had many cars yet! Some awesome machines posted above, so mine arn't really anything special!

It was good for a first car, 75hp from a little 1.2 was pretty good, came with a good level of equipment, and I must say that even though it was a vauxhall the build quality was pretty good, and didnt cause me many problems over the 5 years that I had it!
Second car:

Kinda miss it sometimes, but it was just too slow. Should have gone for the Cooper S really! Felt too claustrophobic in the cabin, no room to move. But as a drive it was so impressive! The carbon fibre lovers will have a field day! Although I haven't uploaded some of the detailed pics, the car had carbon fibre dash panels, boot handle, mirror covers, gearstick, handbrake and steering wheel. Alcantara gaiters on the handbrake and gearlever, and also alcantara on the steering wheel. It had the John Cooper Works (JCW) bodykit fitted, with the 18" R95 wheels! Also had the JCW strut brace, which really did transform the handling of the car when pushing on! Also got some JCW shift lights fitted - which although sound like a gimmick proved to be the most useful modification on the car!!
On the downside - stereo literally sounded like cardboard flapping in the air, it was appauling. Build quality was shocking - rattles everywhere. In the space of two months, it had broken down three times on the side of the road!!!!! (exhaust VANOS valve failure, fuel pump failure, water pump failure). Also the synchromesh was sh!te and the gears would always crunch! As I worked for BMW UK (Ltd) at the time, i told them to bugger off and take the car back and give me all my money back! Got my money back and decided to...............................
Third car:

The GTI, which I suppose will do for now ....... :P
Fourth car:
(pics to follow shortly)
Lotus Elise S1 Sport 160. My father very kindly gave me this a few months ago, so it's become my weekend toy! Absolutely great car, 1 of only 50 in the world (1 of only 3 in New Aluminium Silver). It's in immaculate condition, the car has been chosen by Goodwood to be on display twice now, and many Lotus experts regard it as being one of the best examples of a Series 1 Elise on the road today! So I'm very proud to own it!

Last car Seat Leon FR TDi 170, nice car interior plastics a bit naff but good performance from a diesel, mods were Koni FSD and Eibach springs with a K&N panel filter.I bought this before the 170's could be tuned as there were issues with the DPF now they are getting 200bhp but this wasn't enough for me so headed back to petrol.

MKIV Golf GTI 180 the first car i modded.I seen a magazine article for Star Performance and how they could map cars via the OBD port so 180bhp quickly become 205bhp, then i added Milltek TBE, Eibach ARB's front and rear with K&N panel filter Dension ICE Ipod control and then some OZ alloys.then a software upgrade took the car to about 220bhp so i required a dog bone insert.....chattery teeth time

markymark- those wheels on top silver bug, are they turbo and are they 5x100 or 112s
cheers
billyboy, the wheels on the silver Bug are called Delta X's or Calders, they are OE rims for the V5 Sport Beetle, I managed to get a few sets cheap but I dont think they are available anymore. They are 5x100 fitment made by BBS and I loved them!

Heres a sample of the better ones!
Mini 1380 : All the bits n pieces , rebuilt and resprayed by me and my dad. Labour of love for a long time. highly modified
Mk2 8V GTI : Amazing car , several track days , numerous 1/4 miles , original clutch still at 120k when I sold it. Few tweaks but no engine mods
Fiat Coupe 20VT : whoosh , vastly underestimated cars , huge £/performance , damn exhaust manifolds! kept it rel std too!
Mini Cooper S : 230bhp by GTT tuning , high spec car and great fun , 18 inch Comp MO's for the silly cartoon look
CBR 600 RR : oh yeah , passed bike test in 1 month , then bought this ........... nothing in the car world comes close to a bike. Written off when I hit diesel !!!!!
BMW E46 M3 : had this as well as the bike at one point lol. My pride and joy and bit a bit of a 'dream car' Everything they say and more.
now Edition 30
[note the stunning Integrale EVO2 and the MR2 Turbo are not mine , but awesome cars my friends have]

Past cars: '84 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe [2.3L SOHC turbo, 145hp/190trq] 5MT, '88 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe [2.3L SOHC turbo/intercooled, 190hp/240trq] 5MT, '99 Ford Taurus SHO [3.4L DOHC V8, 235hp/230trq] 4AT, and my daily driver...... '01 Ford Escort ZX2 [2.0L DOHC, 130hp/127trq] 5MT. I'm sure some of you guys know about the Zetec engines, that's what this has. It has a normal Zetec with VCT on the exhaust camshaft, no need for an EGR on this engine! It was rated at 130hp stock, but with my Superchips handheld flasher, cai & catback, plus the underdrive pulley, I'm close to 150hp [at the crank].

Haha, that's what I sometimes use it for! It's an access road to the old Lock 12 canal lock site on the Susquehanna River in York County. Plenty of ups & downs, lefts & rights and don't forget about the !caution! JUMP. :driver:
Some of the cars in this thread make me drool like mad! You guys shouldn't post any more pics up, I'll be very likely to shortout my laptop! :drool:

It's hard to believe that you guys drive around in your inexpensive (compared with us anyway) huge 10 litre V8's getting all jealous of us with our small 4 pot euro boxes! :grin:

Oh trust me, SUVs & large trucks have been tanking since the early summer due to the gas [petrol for you I suppose!] price increases. I can happily say my little ZX2 has gotten me a best average of 45.98mpg [238.8 miles, 5.21 gallons of 89 octane, with a 10% mix of ethanol] during the summer. The one truck I drive at work [Ford F250 4x4 crew cab] has a 6.8L sohc V10 and a six speed manual, yuck.
I'd really like to have 2 VW models that I've seen over there that we don't get in the US; a MKV Golf GT TDI 170 4Motion & the Polo BlueMotion. Well since I own an Escort, a Cossie wouldn't hurt either! :drool: The closest we got to a Cossie was the Merkur XR4Ti [based on the Ford Sierra], but it used a similar 2.3L to the units in my old Turbo Coupes [non-intercooled, 175hp]. We never had an AWD Escort over here. :sad:

Hi all, I'm new here....I think !
Well, here's a quick list of the car's I've owned, thus far.
1st ever car...a Pug 306 1.9 TD. Did 199k miles before it finally blew up. (not actual picture)
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kslautomobiles.co.uk%2Fimages%2F600Pictures%2Fpug306-3.jpg&hash=d89814d76b535702e3db1d77430304f1c7c0d787)
2nd and 3rd car's were both Mk4 Golf GT TDI's - 110bhp and 130bhp respectively. Fully loaded, great cruisers but not very fun to drive. I think the QE2 was better around corners. :happy2:
4th car: A 2003 BMW 330d Sport Saloon. Fantastic fantastic car. Got too excited on a round about one winters day and crashed it :(
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motors.co.uk%2Fd%2Fused-photos%2Fhuge%2FR%2FV%2FRV52AFX.jpg&hash=4db9359747eae117b623662d8e15c98c88ee5d09)
5th Car: replaced car no.4 with another BMW - 330cd sport - great looking car. Had it re-mapped to 275bhp and 420Ib ft of torque - left most things in it's wake. Utterly brilliant motor. Sold it after doing nearly 50k miles on it in just under 2 years...

6th car: bought this little pocket rocket to scale some costs, due to some investments: Brilliant little car. 52mpg and 0-60 in a shade over 7 seconds.

and finally a stage 2+ 180bhp defender td5 (which can be heard here:http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cidnFAa8XEU (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cidnFAa8XEU)) running stage 2+ remap, straight through exhaust and massive intercooler!

Well, I'm only 19 so I haven't had the opportunity to have as many cars as you lot!
But bikes were (and still are) my true love...
At 16, I had this:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fz186%2Fem2evol%2FIM000702.jpg&hash=cf5d1ac34d9ac3365439e9a77b1038afaf8064f7)
Then 1 week after my 17th Birthday, I passed my bike test and got this beauty (which I still miss so much) :-(

But my beautiful RVF got knocked over whilst parked by some idiot car driver :wink: so I didn't have my beloved bike for 5 months (the insurance company really messed me about). In this time I learned to drive as I hated the sh1tty bikes I got given as hire bikes!
I drove my mums Seat Ibiza 1.2 for a year before selling by lovely RVF (and crying lots!) to afford my first Golf - a 1.6 GTI replica (modded by my good self!)
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fz186%2Fem2evol%2FSS852443.jpg&hash=be259ab3363fd68bee79103ac502149ad0deaaa2)
Then after a year of troublesome ownership (due to the lying b@stard of a previous owner) I sold that and got my gorgeous mk5 GTI (I'd been looking at GTIs for months not ever believing I'd be able to afford one!) And here it is!

:happy2:, that would have been pretty new if not new then wouldn't it?
-
Yes it was, brand spanking new on a C plate :happy2:
-
Ha ha thought so, showing my age :smiley:, my first proper bike was an RG250 then RGV250, NC30, CBR600, ZX-6 and now still got me old 900Monster
-
I want to get a ZX-7R... I think it's the most beautiful bike! But seeing as I'll be paying for my GTI for the next 3 years, I think that'll have to wait for a while! :grin:
-
yep...im with gaz, i likes em too! haha!

@ Rob, Loving the black S2K mate! Didn't realise you'd had one of those :love:
I'd like one as a weekend car as after driving more than one or two I fell in love with them not long after they were launched. I was about to buy one once I'd sold my Accord Type R until the Mrs announced she was pregnant again :sad: One day!!
@ Choppers, those old Ford's look amazing! I've always had a soft spot for the MK2 RS2000 custom :love:

@ Choppers, those old Ford's look amazing! I've always had a soft spot for the MK2 RS2000 custom :love:
Greenouse, yes I like the RS2 MK2, always wanted one in the Signal Red 80 colour, it's like a salmon pink, but looks the dogs. I'll try and dig out a pic or two one. Couldn't sell the MK2 for a month of sundays back then in 1987, I bet it's worth a mint now.
It's one of the first ones, before they had the two models (Base and Custom) as it Roll Top recaros, large RS2000 decals on the rear quarters, the 2.0 badges on the wings and the large black strip down the side. Plus it had the centre console and clock inside.
Most of my cars have been Ford RS's of some form or another, they are now VW's... :happy2:

i had a saxo as my first car (no pictures)
then i got a fiesta zetec s (did the usual, wheels, plate, lowered etc)

Right, here goes! I've had a few in my time, and I'm only 24!
Unfortunately I don't have photos for them all, so here are the ones I could get...
This was my Ibiza TDI Sport. Within a month, I had it remapped to 172bhp and 305lb/ft, within 3 months I had the wheels and suspension done, along with the colour coding...ah the joys of being a student!
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fww157%2Fs13tab%2F1.jpg&hash=390929806ac3d5db8cae2919214d9e48ecd7f5f4)
I got the trackday itch and managed to get my hands on one of 4 SEAT Cordoba SX's modded by SEAT Sport for driver tuition. They had a full cage, koni suspension, a tweaked ABF and were painted half red, half lime green. The previous owner sorted that out. What he didn't do was advertise it on eBay properly, so a car with full respray and 39k on the clock cost me £1250! :D This was it in good use:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fww157%2Fs13tab%2F2.jpg&hash=0f0a687381cdbff4aa8dd0975c020d1663f81d68)
I decided to go travelling and sell the Ibiza to fund some of it. When I came back, I wanted a runabout for a few weeks. I got my hands on a mint family owned Polo GT for £350, in the small ads bit of the local paper. I owned it for 9 months and only had to replace the oil and the front pads. I then sold it to one of my mates for £600 and he kept it for a year with no issues either. The car is now in the scene popping up for sale every now and then with more whacky bits on it...bet its ruined now :(
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fww157%2Fs13tab%2F4.jpg&hash=af9d3f68c1984462451ddf9d43b3ad17e353b3c9)
Then onto the moneypit. I loved Corrados ever since I was a kid. I always wanted one, even when I passed my test. I spotted a G60 for sale locally with a mint (and rare) electric Recaro interior, and fell in love...then it all went wrong from there! On the way home the dash lit up like a christmas tree and the exhaust fell off. I got it to work and found more nightmares once on a ramp. I ended up spending about £300 at GSF on new bushes, arms, sensors, etc, as well as a new stainless exhaust and coilovers and then the charger gave up. I got a second hand charger and got rid quick. I think I lost about £1200 in a month! Luckily I still had the super Polo GT at the time, or else I would've been totally screwed.

Back to the SEATs...I saw this going cheap on eBay and sent the seller a cheeky offer of £900, and he accepted! I picked it up the next day fearing I was going to be buying another crock, all it needed was a £45 centre box and £3 PAS belt. I went through the history once I got it home and found that he had the cambelt snap 500 miles previous, and spent £2600 at SEAT for a new ECU and then a head rebuild and service! As it was so cheap and fully loaded, I found it the perfect replacement for the Polo. I kept it for a year and added new wheels and suspension, and sold it for £1900!

Next was the Cupra TDI. This was my mums car from new, and she decided to get an MX-5. The dealer offered her a stupidly low price for it, so I bought it. Revo had used it to develop the PD160 map, so it had 198bhp and 298lb/ft, it was a no brainer!

And now we're at present day, with another Tornado Red VW:

Has anybody had one of these?
A bloke down the road used to have one, always out on his drive doing some mechanical activity with it, always admired it, sounded really raw when he drove it aswell and really unique.
Think it was a rally legend, id been to young when it was in its glory.

It was the 320D M Sport. Nice car to look at but felt very underpowered for 177BHP. Although I had changed to it from a TFSI DSG Leon so it was a very different driving experience...

Jonny, you didnt use to be around the Shipley area did you, recognise the Black Mini...unless its very very similar (same wheels and styling)
Seem to recall seeing it in Shipley Macdonalds on occasions.
My first car a 2002 1.2 Clio with a massive 60hp
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fk161%2Fastramk-3%2Fn512470779_36948_8780.jpg&hash=ca46d49cca706fe4f5c862bdad54e4af5aca5a87)
Had some decent rims on it at one point which were sold to go towards the Yamaha Banshee (needed abit of speed in my life) went like sh*t off a shovel and sounded amazing with the stupidly expensive race pipes.
I then sold both of the above to go towards this a 2006 1.9CDTi 150hp Astra, had a tuning box on it at one point which was running at roughly 200hp and smoked like a bitch.

(Grey one) then traded that in against this as I just had to have it...current car 2008 Edition 30.

nice pick up tom, if you haven't gathered i have a thing for proper 4x4's!
Yeah i guessed with the landy comments
Had some really good fun off roading nothing too serious just sneaking along green lane type of stuff :wink:
But lost a fortune had it when the whole 4x4 prices dropped and i had knocked it about abit and its running costs were just not worth it hence why i went for the 182 but i don't regret it and would nt mind a cheap 4x4 again

Not an exciting car life, like some..
My first car, before passing my text (in 2002) was a N reg box shaped Ford Escort...
My second car, still before passing my test, was a Vauxhall Corsa (called Clarence).. he was the beginning of my modding life.. big bore, alloys, front splitter, ice..
My third car, (a year after passing my test) was, and always will be my baby, Toyota Mr2 (called Hugo).. modded and very much loved..

I loved MR2 when i was about 15 - the Turbo REV 3 i wanted so bad... very fast 0-60 under 5 secs i believe
Always wanted one at 17 but after finding it was a no-no, i stopped taking interest in them.
Is yours a T-Bar then ?

To M Rich,
Well, i got my mr2 when i was 22.. and a girl having a mr2 at that age round here was a big thing.. it was awesome.. car got so much attention.. the only attention i got was from the police, pulling me over to check it was my car!.. :laugh:
Na, it was a hard top with sunroof, and was jst a 2ltr 16v N/A..
:smiley:

Oooo - nice
Still quick - what bhp was that then ?
Did police pull you ?

cheers...
would loved to have kept it, but I have a list of cars I need to own.... the 911 was on there, but I've actually wanted a Ur-quattro for longer than I'd wanted a Porker... but the 911 came along first, somebody made us a good offer on it.... then good ol' Gene Hunt 'Fired up the quattro' and prices went a bit daft, and the money burnt a hole in our pockets so we bought the camper and the VR6, so the quattro will have to wait! :laugh:
It seems I'm a sucker for 80's metal! haha, maybe I need some red braces, a filofax and a brick of a mobile phone!

Right here we go, for starts.
I had this car when i was 16 and started to lean to drive on the roads on my 17th birthday.
Renault Clio 1.4 Dci - 86 bhp. quick car for a first. and it had xenons. Ive never seen another "non-182" with xenons yet either!
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.j8ypc.co.uk%2Fimages%2F1.jpg&hash=5961005549b29e4003b09908e1560402419167a5)
I passed my test pretty quick and 6 hours after passing, i wrote it off. nice. Please let me assure you it was due to diesel on the road. you can moan and winge all you want about it being an excuse, but it happened!
so after that, i bought two vectras off my dads company for £1500. ex company cars.
I ran around in the burgundy one for a few weeks until id tidied up the silver one.
they were Both 1.8 Sri's. About 120BHP, not bad for 17.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.j8ypc.co.uk%2Fimages%2F2.jpg&hash=2f2114680daddb687658f54239d277e343e8752c)
Yes that bonnet scoop was a horrible idea, but it was free! i hated it from the start, believe me!!
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.j8ypc.co.uk%2Fimages%2F3.jpg&hash=9bc38d529b5a8277a1a6c6b0cb80cc5fd8c431be)
Two weeks after i did that i decided it had to go!
So two weeks before my 18th, i bought this.
Vectra 2.2 Sri - 150bhp. Had all the extras, leather cruise. a nice car really...for a family!!! so i got rid pretty quick, 6 months i think?

So 6 months later, i bought this...my first real car!!
Golf Mk4 GTi Anniversary! no doubt this was a fantastic car, especially at 18. i only sold it about 3 months ago!

I had this car for just over two years and loved every minute of it!
In Nov 2008 i bought my brand new Golf Gt Sport. it looked terrible on delivery and wondered why i replaced the anni...
here it is on the first day i had it!

Had a few cars too - the ones of note are as follows....
Had a 306 XSi 3dr before we found out about our first child.... so had to get sensible.....

Subaru Impreza Turbo
Modded, without going stupid - Scoobysport full Decat (pops & bangs etc), uprated filters and "new car" magic tree.
A couple of years later, moved area, had another daughter on the way, and a Labrador (big fooker too) - so had to make way for something else....

Subaru Impreza Turbo
Again, modded with the same type of mods, but also had been fettled with before I had it (remap)
Missed the sounds of both of these cars, but not the drive. Literally threw the keys at the dealer when I p'xd for this (after a 300 mile trip)

Audi S4 Avant
Whilst the Audi was a MONSTER for performance, it was a bit of a barge. So I went and bought this as a second car, primarily as Wifey's car.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fv91%2FScoobyDoo555%2Fgti64web.jpg&hash=de1d549155671e86185aba2f83f37585322df86e)
Phase 1 Peugeot 306 GTi6 - had everything rebuilt on it. 8)
Then got rid of the Audi for my current ride......

She was a 2001 Xstar with the 'standard ' 5.7 Chevvy 310HP, I also had a 2003 X5 with the same engine before this one. And not to mention a ouple of sea speedboats! All have given way to 3 kids, but boats will be returning to my life, and very soon

Oli man loving that Mastercraft :drool: what engine she got?
She was a 2001 Xstar with the 'standard ' 5.7 Chevvy 310HP, I also had a 2003 X5 with the same engine before this one. And not to mention a ouple of sea speedboats! All have given way to 3 kids, but boats will be returning to my life, and very soon
Nice got anymore pics? A mate of mine used to have a Tige with some big V8 engine he even put straight through pipes on it :stupid: it sounded unbeliveable i felt like i was wakeboarding behind a nascar :rolleye:

Unfortunately not on this computer! Infact I dont know where the pics are, and it was an awesome boat, we could get 8 or more people on it, sounds pumping out and have an awesome wake behind, for some serious air time!

My first car was a G reg Toyota Corolla GL. 4 door in a red/faded pink colour. Nicknamed the red rocket, lasted me 6 mnths before I had an "incident" with a titanic sized Volvo so no pics. Then got the VW bug and bought a 1 litre Polo, spent a but if cash making it look like this..

I love these kind of threads , ive done them many times on various forums - some great cars on this one so far , so I will add some of mine.
1st car was a 1975 Mini 1000 (JBR 318N) which I bought as an MOT fail for £80 , done it up at the garage i was doing YTS at in 2 tone beige and red , with the red paintwork running down the A pillar and ending up as a V shape on the bonnet.... no pics
2nd car was a 1975 VW 1303 (HKS 244N) Campaign Edition ,resprayed black with Wolfrace chrome slot mags , a monza 4 tip exhaust and every chrome accesory i could throw at it!!! again no pics
3rd was a Brand new Ford Escort Mk4 1100 Bonus in black (G734 OSH), to which I added RS Turbo Wheels and RS front spoiler. (no pics again tho!)
Next came this , 1983 Ford Capri 2.0S , one of the later cars which missed out on the Check Recaro interior but gained 2.8i style single leaf springs and Billstein gas suspension.

After that , I had another VW Beetle , a 1969 1300 in Oragne , LER 429G , no pics as I only kept it a short while before I traded it in for this....

A few years later 1994 ish I beleive , at the Mitsu garage across the road from my work , I spied this- 44000 on the clock , 1 owner , full FFSH , so I had to buy it - Ford Capri 1.6 Laser in Paris Blue
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2FDmc1969%2FMy_cars%2Fcapri16laser.jpg&hash=336fb160abd48afd265b01619cd9c43f3dfeaf67)
I kept that for a year , but hankered after a 2.8i , so found this in the NE Autotrader at a garage in Northallerton (Bearing in mind I live in North Northumberland!) , went down to see it and fell in love. D500 WCN 2.8i Special in Diamond White.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2FDmc1969%2FMy_cars%2Fcapri28i.jpg&hash=1f38e784ba6146d1a5e3d6081f6f2735f290af2a)
I had 2 happy years of show attending ect with this car , I loved it but I can never keep a car so I fancied a change , and I bought a Mitsubishi Galant 2.0 DOP (Diamond Option Pack) 5 door on an H plate , in Burgundy met. My first car with cruise control , and thats about all I can remember about it , apart from the fact that it had cross spoke alloys that were a pig to clean!
Got bored with that very quickly , and traded it at the same Mitsubishi dealer for a Lancer GTI-16V (K320 EKS) this was lowered on Pi springs , had compomotive 5 spoke alloys , a Superchip and a Blaupunkt aftermarket stereo with Cd changer

Ok , so I kept the Lancer GTI for a while , but then I fancied something a bit nicer so I went to Glasgow and bought a Porsche 944 lux - unfortunatly I was totally ripped off and the car was a wreck underneath so after 2 weeks i took it back and got my money back
I used the money to buy this instead , a Capri 280 'Brooklands' from a garage in Whitley Bay , N Tyneside. This is the one car I wish I had kept , as nice ones are now touching £10K or more , I paid £3250 for mine , circa 1998!

I kept the 280 for a record (then , for me!) 2.5 years , but by that time , the Mitsu garage next to my work had became a Skoda dealer also , and there was a lovely Octavia 1.8T on the forecourt with full leather.....hmmm....oh go on then!

Lovely car , heated seats , climate ect , and I would have kept that for a while , but then I read about the vRS version...couldnt resist when they said they were getting a Silver one in , bought it without even seeing or driving it! so THIS became my 2nd brand new car

Unfortunaty for me , the payments on this crippled me after a while so after about 18 months I had to get rid. In the process I lost my private plate and I was really depressed as the Octy vRS was the best car I had ever had :( I had to replace it with a runabout while my bank balance recovered , so I got this , a Lancer 1.6 16V 'Mirage' , which went surprisingly well , and scrubbed up ok too , after a bit of my car cleaning magic!
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2FDmc1969%2FMy_cars%2FLancerGlxi16v.jpg&hash=05f9b46912595d83218e63053e8fbd5b6668780f)
One day a few months later coming home from Edinburgh on the A1 , the clutch started slipping so I took it back to the garage to get sorted and they gave me a P reg Galant V6 auto to drive , which I really liked , so....yeah you guessed it , I bought it! I soon gave it my own touch , adding the 17" Sport Wheels and the VR4 rear spoiler.

My next car was this , Lancer Evolution II GSR , loved this , joined the MLR and done a few shows , the pic is from Billing Aquadrome , JAE show.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2FDmc1969%2FMy_cars%2FLancerEvoIIGSR.jpg&hash=a2058c422a51fe3fb330e3e2a9831d1ad7086e88)
So , had the Evo about 18 months , cost me a fortune to run and kept breaking down , probably due to lack of care of a previous owner. Nevertheless I loved it , and was gutted when , yet again , I had to get rid of it before my bank balance was sucked dry! The Mitsu garage (by this time they had just lost their Skoda franchise again) had this little Fabia in , 29K on the clock , one owner and air con , and just the 198 BHP less than the Evo! SOLD!!! (I figured I would get a few years out of this to give my bank a chance to recover - ended up keeping it over 5 years , which is a record for me!)

I traded the Fabia in last september , for the Golf GTI , at Western VW Edinburgh , and thats me up to date. I wish I had taken pics of all my cars , and I also wish we had a VW garage here in Berwick (last one closed in 1984 , but not before my Dad had the chance to buy a brand new Mk1 Polo , which is probably where I get my love of VWs from!), that way I would have had a few more VWs in my car CV....

Im just regretting not taking any pics of alot of my previous cars its brought back some memories digging these lot out :rolleye:

My first car was a Mars red GTI, I soooo regret having no pictures of that car. A van driver condemned her to VW heaven, I'm still gutted 20 years on...
I'll try and get some pics of my other cars up later.

I had a D plate Black Xr3i, but always wanted , but never could afford to purchase or insure an RS turbo....
If more of them were around now, in as good a condition as your old car, i would love to own one.
Oh well, i have an Hyundai i10 to look foward to in 4 weeks...... not quite the same :signLOL:

Clio V6 255 1 of 8 in UK
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2FV6_255%2FMy_V6%2FDSCF1564.jpg&hash=cc4cc77e4e54b8a10718f61a5ca114c63466ed4e)
-
Is that Clio V6 one of eight in that colour or just one of the only ones in the country?
Reason I ask is that a garage up the road to me in Kingswinford has one for sale in the showroom, about £4500 I think for an 02 reg.
(would have loved to give it a go as it looked evil...even for a Frenchie!)
-
The one you saw for sale would be a MKI V6. The one in the pic is a MKII. Even so I know they sold more than 8 MKII 255 V6's, so the one he's shown must either be 8 of that colour or a special edition. :smiley:

Is that Clio V6 one of eight in that colour or just one of the only ones in the country?
Reason I ask is that a garage up the road to me in Kingswinford has one for sale in the showroom, about £4500 I think for an 02 reg.
(would have loved to give it a go as it looked evil...even for a Frenchie!)
Just in that colour mate. (only 6 left now as 2 have been wrote off)
Off the top of my head there were 256 mk1 230's (2001 - 2003) & 354 mk2 255's (2003 - 2006) not that im a Renaultsport geek or anything :)

I loved the looks and road presence of the DC5, but it lacked the soul of my DC2 sadly and was sold on after only 10 months.

Ridiculously fast supercharged Civic came next, but the chasis was out of it's depth even with all the mods, shame as it was good fun.

First car was a saxo vtr, then moved onto a cammed vts 160bhp.
First proper car was my ibiza cupra which got to about 250bhp. Probably still the lowest mileage one as my mate now owns it and still only got 32k on clocks.

Nice varied selections of cars and bikes here. :smiley:
I've had a few cars in the past, havnt got any pics to hand of the old ones!
Only my Bora, which up until i got my Edition 30 last week was my pride and joy! Now its back on standard wheels, raised ride height and is being used as a daily!
This is what it looked like in the summer anyway, proper low on genuine Sport Design Porsche wheels, 9" on the front and 10" on the back...

even bought air suspension for it after it blew a driveshaft. But never got round to fitting it. 6 months after that I put it back to standard and swapped it for this in April this year

it broke a gearbox after only 3 months, replaced it but started looking at other cars. Then the replacement gearbox was starting to break so sold it cheap to get rid of it and bought my MK5. Which was the best thing i've ever done, I think. Maybe I should've given the estate more time. But live and learn. One day i'll own another one and finish what I started haha

Love the Golf Estate :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: (apart from the front number plate location…just my opinion tho)

I know, I was never happy with it there!! I was in the process of finishing off a bracket so I could have a USA size plate on the passenger side of the bumper like they do in the States. Never quite got round to finishing it until the car was back to standard!! still got it in the garage in a box waiting for it's turn to be used.

Here goes:
Started with a 1.8 TD Mardi Gras Peugeot 205. Only 50k genuine miles on her. Put a set of 1.9 GTI Alloys on and Spax uprated suspension. Owned for 5 months.
Moved to a 1998 Peugeot 306 1.4 Meridian (half leather). Moved over the 1.9 GTI alloys onto her but didn't get a chance to mod her anymore. :sad: Owned for 48 days!

Owned that Peugeot for 15 months, then took a mega leap up to a 2003 BMW 320d, at 19 years old it was totally luxury for me, had my eye on Golf and A3's at the time but the BMW was cheaper to buy and insure!! :stupid: It had the full M-Tech 2 Body Kit, Eibach SportLine Springs. Bought at 103k miles and put 30,000 miles on her in 14 months (got a girlfriend who lives 30 miles away :rolleye: ) Was expensive to service, etc plus it chewed thru tyres like there was no tomorrow. Handled like it was on rails tho and I could get 700 miles out of a tank. :surprised:

Part-ex'd the BMW for a Lexus IS200, which was a big mistake. 2.0 straight six engine cannot get above 30mpg, and with an auto box it isn't exactly the fastest 150 bhp I've owned. Ownership - still own, altho my brother drives it now, 22 months.

After passing my test(s) in 06 as an immature 16 year old I had a yamaha ttr 250 to get about on, crashed it bad, ruined my knee and sold it. Grew up quite quickly after that :)
Car history:
Mk3 Astra merit 1400 sh*tbox. Quite quick for what it was, still really poo!
Peugeot partner van, great fun, handied it everywhere.
At 18 i got a Mk3 golf gti 16v, fully loved this thing and regret selling.... Nearly spun out off a cliff racing my mate in his rover mini 1275.

Killed it at 140 chasing my mate in his 200jp xsara, could afford to fix it so it sat on my drive for 3 years... :(
Emergency car was a mk3 gti 8v I bought for £40, was such a shed I never took any pics of it.
Fancied a go at drifting so I bought an e36 328i from across.

First was a MK2 Clio 1.4 but don't have any pictures of it, ended up going full on max power with it in the form of full bodykit, cobra bucket seats, O.Z Titan alloys, Powerflow exhuast, etc :ashamed:
Then bought my dads Celica GT off him, really liked that car and even the colour started to grow on me! Spent lots on it with a Full HKS exhaust including a manifold, coilovers, HKS induction kit, Khan RSC wheels that i still love! Picture from the garage i p/x it in at for a car for my dad.

I bought another car off my dad again after the Celica, Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo. When it worked it was quick and pulled like a train, shame it hardly ever worked. Spent £4000 on just parts fixing it in the time i owned it and then deceided to cut my losses and sell it.

Moved onto the best car i've owned, Celica GT4 ST205. Plowed silly amounts of money into it and got it upto 380bhp 340lbft :driver:
First day of ownership

Had an MG ZS 180 2.5 V6 for around 6 months before the bottom end let go, no pictures.
After that i had a Clio 182. Went round corners unbelievably well and surprisingly was one of the most reliable cars i had, until the time came to sell it and the alternator gave up :booty:

Started my driving Career with a White Mk2 1.3 Golf which got crashed into by some woman who decided even though she was pulling out of a junction i had to give way to her.
Second car was another Mk2 1.3 this time in Red which got written off due to me being young dumb and only having 3 hours sleep before work 1 day.
Third car was a 1.3 Mk2 Jetta which the head gasket went on and was then sold off.
Car before Current is below.. Owned this since it was imported from Japan 5 years ago. Turbo has just gone on it so am selling it at a loss but just want something a bit more grown up now.
This was it a few months after i had it.. Few tiny mods done by the japanese owner including the wheels.

This is how it is now.. Sad to see it go as its a real wolf in sheeps clothing considering ive not done much modding engine wise.. Running approx 150BHP and weighs less than a ton.
