I don't have pic's of all the cars I've had but I'll go through what pics I do have, first up was my little 1.4 16v Dual Carb civic:

Image

I then got an E30 BMW 318iS which lasted a week before the timing chain slipped!

Image

I then upgraded to a 325i SE with an MTec 2 kit and azev rims, which lasted a month before I blew the engine whilst diffing :(

Image

Money was short but I managed to pick up a clean wee 1.2 Nova:

Image

I then went jap and got a pop up light 323 Mazda:

Image

Which I had three weeks before too much speed and not enough skill got the better of me:

Image

I'll start working on the next stage of my epic car journey lol

So I loved the 323 that much I bought another one, but it was the 3dr version of the same chassis as the last one:

Image

Kept it for 6mths and I was offered a Cavalier 1.8 LS at money I couldn't refuse:

Image

This was kept for a year until I met my wife who convinced me to sell it and get a VW Golf GTi:

Image

It also lasted a year but when the gearbox failed for the 2nd time in a year I got rid and got a Vectra SRi 2.5 V6:

Image

I then had the taste for the V6 and wanted more power and got an Omega 3.0 V6 manual with an Elite model interior:

Image

I lost my job and had to downgrade and got a Nova 1.0 Life with a 1.6 engine fitted to her:

Image

Next section coming up lol

After the Nova I fancied a Corsa, having never owned one before and got a wee 1.2 Breeze:

Image

I had got a new job by now and fancied something a bit bigger and got an Audi 80 1.6:

Image

Beautiful driving car, better than my mates 1.8 A4!! I wanted Vauxhall again so I swapped this for a 2.0 8v Calibra:

Image

Loved this car but after a run of bad luck with her (fuel pump relay failed during heavy snow, headlight went on fire!! And someone scored the side of the car!) I sold it and got another Vectra SRi but this time with the 2.2 petrol

Image

But this car had a problem with the steering pump which Vauxhall couldn't get a replacement for as the drive was different from anything they could find so I swapped it for the Corsa SRi 1.4:

Image

I then stupidly got a dose of a Cavalier TD:

Image

Which I hated but I saved a brave bit of money and went back to a V6!!:

Image

This was a 2.6 V6 Omega Elite auto and was a FANTASTIC car! But my hours got cut down and I had to change after 7 months of wonderful ownership

So I got a wee 1.6 16v Civic Coupe:

Image

Got a new job with better hours and was in a motor factors so I treated myself to a C180 Merc:

Image

I then started on a wild Gumtree fixation and started swapping for good stuff:

Image

And the stuff that looked good till I got it home and tried modifying to find a mess:

Image

And then back to a touch of class again with this:

Image

I was still flicking through Gumtree and picked up a nice wee Audi A3 1.6 which was another great car too drive:

Image

But wee were moving house and couldn't afford a van but I swapped the Audi for a 2.4 5cyl Volvo V70 which is one of the best cars I've had:

Image

Quality beyond Merc, BMW etc. . . . But after a few months the fuel bill was straining me so I sold it and got a BMW 318i Estate:

Image

Had this nearly a year but with my wife deciding not to back to work due to the twins arrival and our other two kids I started a journey to downgrade for fuel/insurance reasons etc and got this 1.8 Focus:

Image

Which after two months developed a strange fueling problem so I got rid and picked up a ZR 1.4:

Image

Which I just didn't gel with and I finally ended up in my current wee SXi Corsa:
