1. Pug 206 1.1 60bhp. Stopped working after a few years, it would run fine for about half an hour and then die. Traded it in, didn't mention it was broken, good thing the dealer was less than 30 mins away.

2. Pug 206 Quiksilver 1.4 75bhp. Added the silver grill to the front, front splitters, shark fin rear spoiler, rear lexus lights. Never got around to changing the crappy alloys. Traded it in just before it's 3rd birthday, reverse lights stopped working so it woulda failed its mot. Again didn't mention it was broken...

3. Impreza GX Sport. Had it about a year before trading it in for current Scoob. Nothing wrong with this one when I traded it in .

4. My current Impreza

Haha, I've done alright considering I'm only 25... just tend to get bored of cars and see something else that I fancy giving a try. Always seem to return to a Subaru though.

Cheers,

I knew it was quick when it happily pulled away from a friends 270-280bhp GT4 with no fuss, never realised it had all those hidden bits... I bought it as a "standard" car with a Scoobysport Backbox on it.

Those Mk1 Astras are rare as hell now, if you do see one, they tend to be extremely well looked after. I'm not a vauxhall fan, but I do like them.

Cheers,

my first car was a nova 1.3sr, seen below, this wee car used to hit 60 in second before the redline and would pull all the way to 125mph till i blew it up. then I fitted a 1600 nova gte engine minus the injection running twin 40 webbers and high lift cam. bow could it shift. I embarrassed a few things with this set up.

next was an XR2I 18-16v zetec. loved this wee car, lowered it 60mm, decat, chip, induction kit and cams, brilliant wee car.

Next for some mad reason I decided to defect to diseasel with a 306 d turbo, it wasn't the quickest but looked the part

Next up was a Xsara VTS coupe, lowered 35mm, induction kit, exhaust and chip it went well. pic not of actual car.

Next up was a pug 306 GTI-6, I adored this car, the longest I've ever kept a car for(3yrs). De-cat exhaust, induction kit, chip and performance cams this went like stink and to be honest I would prob still have it if I hadn't bent every valve and damaged 2 pistons when the timing belt went. got it fixed but nevr felt the same so cut my losses and sold it.

Next up back to the old school with a mint fiesta rs turbo, this was seriously fast running about 220bhp cant remember the exact spec as I bought it already modded, kept it 6 months then managed to sell on for a profit.

next up bought a citroen zx volcane turbod to run around in, bought it with 140k miles on it and it never missed a beat is still going about locally

next up an escort GTI the worst car I ever had, hated it only kept it 2 months. cant find any pics but it was a metallic blue 5 dr. hated it.

next up a mg zs 180, the second worst car I had, it was great when it was going but that wasn't very often.pic not of actual car

next up was the 555 totally loved it but it had to go due to lack of use and an expanding family. I will get another scoob some day

I was self employed for a while and had this wee combo, managed to sell for a profit when i was finnished with it.

and now my current rides a clio 172 cup for me and a hyundai tuscon for the other half and the kids.

Grant, did the SpecG sale fall through? I thought that it was coming up here? They seem pretty excited about it... I'm also under orders to stop giving you into trouble for selling it until they have it!!!!

[thefastone]

And whats with uploading the BIGGEST PICTURES IN THE UNIVERSE? the forum will only display them at 800, but takes all the time to load the whole thing... and means that anyone with a crepe connection cant see anything... Hell, even my ok connection sometimes takes a while to load some of them...

No no, the sale is still going through and it's likely to be an Aaaaaahbaaaaahdeen Scoobies regular.. I'm glad they're excited about it and I'm glad its going to a couple that are into their Imprezas and will look after it.

Cheers,
