First car - 1.4 8v LS
Headgasket went, spent a small fortune fixing it only for the bottom end to start going and one of the cylinders got fucked up
Second car - 1.4 8v SRi. Lovely little car, I ragged it a fair bit and it still returned average 40mpg In the end it was another car I killed from engine failure
Third car - 1.8 Escort Si - dont have any pics of this, save to say it cost £550, was an MOT failure 6 months down the road. Generally a piece of shit and has put me off buying Ford for a while
Current car - Astra 2.0DTi 16v - loving the MPG and the power, comfy car too with a good stereo

Have you still got the mini clubman estate. If you have a thing for mini´s, it never really goes away! Even if you do move on to bigger and better cars.

I started out with a 1996 1.0 16v Nissan Micra
Then I went to a 1998 silver 1.4 Sport which I gave absolute death for about a year, then sold it to my sister. Drove it a couple of weeks back and it reminded me how much I loved it!!
I then had a 2005 black 1.8 tdci Ford Focus, hated this car, I tried to kill it so many times, only had it 7 months as it was a company car.
Now have my Ibiza FR and I like it alot, good fuel economy if I behave myself and great fun to drive if your not behaving, I find it quite pricey to run tbh, tyres and fuel cost me a bloody fortune

Essay Alert Sorry!!
1st Car - Rover 416Ls Special Edition with full cream leather wig! Gasket popped, then gearbox went.
2nd Car - Astra Sport with C20XE conversion, loved it but at 17 was costing me £2k to insure so got rid! It was almost swapped for J18 (JRs White Corsa) but I wanted a car with seats at the time
3rd Car- Straight swap for the Astra, Corsa 1.2 8v, stripped it and bought a XE and then just never got round to fitting it. Wish I had now as the Corsa was spotless
Before
After
Engine
4th Car - Vectra 1.8 LS, which I bought a set of GSi wheels for, got bored so sold it.
5th Car - started doing gardening so bought a Kangoo van for £600 lasted me just over a year then gave it to my dad who kept it for about 2 years and he sold it on for £600 No pics.
6th Car - Renault Laguna Sport Tourer 1.8 16v, bought in Auction for £3300, loved it but was so greedy on petrol and was slow'ish! Chopped it in for 7th Car, ended up getting offered £3800 for it from Vauxhall in a p/x, which made me
7th Car - Corsa C SXi 1.2 16v, got bored very quickly so sold it to my mum, whos still got it now.
8th Car - Out of everything it was the Astra I missed so I bought another, with intention of fitting an XE, again never bothered just used it with the 1.6 then my next car came up and was offered a good price for the Astra (mate from work whos still got it) so couldnt refuse.
9th Car - Omega 3.0 V6 Elite, properly loved it, it sounded boss on full chat Lost my job so unfortunatley she had to go
While out of work made use of my mums Corsa, and my Brothers Supra then his 4 motion Golf whilst he was away serving the queen and playing with the Iraqis!
10th Car - Corsa B 1.2 16v SXi bought off a lad on here, swapped it with Iain M for my next car
11th Car - Vectra SRi V6, didnt really ever like this car, felt very down on power and LOUD!! so fitted the standard Irmscher exhaust, but with the Remus was still too loud and still down on power so lashed it on eBay.
12th Car - Astra 1.6 8v got this for £800 another eBay bargain, the ex has still got this and its a brilliant little car for the money. Split up with her and gave it to her so bought myself a new car.
13th Car - Unlucky for some? Yes. Escort 1.8 TD, bought it on ebay for £700 on Chrimbo Eve, sold it a week later as it was an absolute shed for £850 to a fella who knew exactly what was wrong with it. Not so unlucky then No Pics, was clean but shite.
14th Car - Vectra SRi V6 (Facelift this time) alot quicker than the other one, was my brothers, bought it off him then he bought it back.
15th and current Car - Mondeo TDCi, bought and used as a taxi for 4 months, got a new job so its just my everyday car now, will be keeping this till next year and getting something Petrol and quick, very almost traded it in for a Cooper S but got my sensible head on and going to wait!
(Not actual car but exactly the same, I've since put 17" Focus C-Max wheels on)
