When i was younger i wanted an xr2i as my first car, never driven one to this day, driven turbo convered ones and xr2's even had an xr2 at one point.
When i was driving a few years i wanted an e39 m5, now i own one.

always had dreams of owning supercars etc and other performance cars, my target is a gt3rs as a weekend toy and an e60 m5 as a daily runner.

Probably a Porsche of some sorts, never owned or driven one, although my dad did have one (i was 12-13 anyway)

Cant see how people can have a nova as a dream car

! Each to there own i guess.

Boyhood Jacko, when I was riding around on my scooter seeing the lads in the 6th form rocking up at school in their Nova SR's and the girls in my year going out in them I wanted one.

Oooooo good one

One of the cars i used to wish i owned was a R5GT Turbo

driven one but never owned one! Awesome cars. Remember seeing that silver one Max Power built and read the article over and over again for months

The next car isn't really a 'Childhood' car. It was 2000 and i was 19. There is a Peugoet dealer not far from were i worked and they had a W reg Black 106 GTI set up on fancy ramps for £9995 :coo: it was the coolest thing i'd ever seen and i'd go before picking up my GF at the time from work. I used to sit on the wall and just stare at it

Then a few years later i got one

Yes

It was a little bit uncomfortable, feet kept getting caught under the front wheels on turning but the power was pretty good (i'm a fast runner)

Yes, Wanted a Saxo VTR from when they came out, Had to be dropped on its arse with a sub in the boot (Was in my days of reading Max Power all the time, Like a bible to a teen!)

Also a Seat Ibiza. Seen one on the way to school and liked how different it looked at the time.

Cant really put another dream car down, Think i'd fill a complete page, But the main one is this

Yes. Briefly.

I will still have one one day, but it will most likely be a tweeked one, with tuned A series engine, half cage etc.

It would look similar to this... but with more "normal" interior and A series engine.
