But back in the day and off the top of my head to name a few

6 minis

2 ford escorts

1 Capri

1 Grenada

1 Vauxhall’s viva

1 Hillman imp

I could go on if I thought about it more and obviously everyone was a rustbucket but that’s how it used to be

trouble most likely, or creating it :)

I think I'm on about 135 been driving 19 years now.

Dont change them as much as I did years ago. Also used to have a multi car policy that allowed me to have any number of cars as long as the total value didnt exceed whatever amount it was. And I only had 2 of them out at one time ( 2 drivers on the policy)

Had about 17 metros.. including a few metro turbos and metros with lotus engines or mgf engines

Lots of other rovers or mgs

220coupe 216 cabriolet ( Honda engine) mgzs 180 mgzr

Many a fast Ford and not so fast.

4x4 Sierra. Series 1 ts turbo xr3i. Rs2000 etc

Quite a number of alfas

156 by.. 145.. 146. Gt etc

Then many random buys.. s13200sx. Cinquecento sporting. Mk2 golf cabriolet. Range rover. Sportrak. Punto gt

Type r Subaru .. bug eye wrz

Boxster

A

Zafira

Ford focus diesel

Fiesta zetec s

C1

And I'd be here for ever. I now just have two alfas soon to be 3

Yes, I loved the way you could leave a roundabout in a different direction to how you entered it

Part of this may be the overconfidence of youth and cheap tyres on the back too

Derby

I've not had anywhere near the amount of cars I've drooled over yet never had.

One or two of mine I wish I still had as they've become collectable and gone up in value too.

1, fiesta Mk1 1.1

2, fiesta mk1 1.1

3, corolla gt ae82

4, renault 19 16v phase 1

5, cavalier Sri

6, mondeo st24

7, Subaru Legacy Gt wagon

8, Subaru Legacy GtB wagon

9, mondeo st Tdci

10 BMW 335d coupes

The corolla and Renault also had big ICE systems in them as well and both worth more than the car was.

Yeah, mine was an earlier model and the letter ones were better, but I should have polished it up and kept it
