All your cars are on the wrong side of the pond!!!
Here's my English take on this:
1: 1986 Ford Fiesta 1.4s (with the engine out of an XR2 - don't tell the insurance man!) which I swapped for:
2: 1972 VW Beetle - always been obsessed with the Bug since I was a kid, so had to have one when the opportunity arose (by the way - hence the name bluedub, cos it was a blue dub!) This sadly died of the cancer that is called rust.
3: 1986 Ford Escort 1.6 Ghia - given to me by a mate whilst I looked for another car.
4: 1985 BMW 325i - also always wanted a bimma, so jumped at the chance of this. Unfortunately it only lasted 3 months, as a daft woman in a Toyota Supra wrote it off for me!
5: 1991 Renault 19 16v - seriously quick car, was so happy with it right up to the point that the head gasket blew, was never the same after that!
6: 1998 Citroen Saxo VTR - wanted something small & quick, and this is what I came up with. Great little car but had many problems for a 98 car! Cost me a bucket!!!!
7: My current trusty 318ti Sport. Had it a year now, best car I have ever owned (I think!!!!)
