Your Previous Cars (Real Cars)?

[Nick Goodall]

As Bathy put a pic up of his rather nice Mk1 Golf i thought i'd see who else has been into cars here and owned anything silly / fun or just different??

I had a bit of a mad phase of modifying and doing all sorts of silly things so i thought i'd stick up some pics:

Clio 16v



Renault 5 Turbo (210Bhp) - This thing was a rocket when we weren't rebuilding it....



I always liked the Dimma Clio's and someone offered to swap one with my Renault 5 so i took it.




Then i went crazy at 20 with a Standard Black Pulsar GTI-R and spent a small fortune on the Engine, Brakes, interior, bodywork, wheels etc etc.



Next up were these two:

BMW E36 M3 Evo


Mitsi Lancer Evo VI


Then i had to get boring and sensible so had a VR6 Golf followed by the Golf i have now!
