First of all i got given an old escort, couldnt insure it so sold it for £80, haha!

106 1.1, i got a lump sum inheritance when i just turned 16.. this seemed a good idea at the time to blow £900 of it on this. never had it on the road! let someone test drive when it was for sale, they wrote it off. learnt a lesson there.

Next I got a 1.8 ghia x escort, was alright but again just sold it on for a profit

mum gave me her rover, needless to say after a week or 2 i sold it:

then got another 106, this was a shitter, sold it on again for over £200 profit:

bought an almera off a mate (god knows why!) gave it to my mum to use until she got her brand new corsa, she burnt the clutch out & gave it back, still managed over £150 profit on it:

I then passed my test & frantically hunting for a car, a mate of a mate in the RAF let me have this for £120, ragged it until crank seal blew then sold it on ebay making a note of the plate & it sold for £125 so i got my moneys worth at least.

Got lucky next with a 93 plate astra 1.4 gls, loads of gadgets, felt like luxury after the AX. bought it for £220 with genuine 68k on the clock. sold it for £360 with 74k on it:

it needed some work so took a clio in part ex from danny2009 which turned out to be one of the most reliable cars ive ever had:

then fancied something faster so got a rover 220 td running a bosch VE. nicest car ive ever driven, looked pants really but drove brilliant. burnt the clutch out trying to get out of a fireworks event as they made us park in a boggy field. scrapped it in the end:

mother put some money towards a half decent car for my xmas pressie, got this 206, loved it even though it was chavvy, then it started braking & it kept failing its mot on emissions, so sold it on.

back to a 306, got this from a member on here, was a decent car but i got sick of the colour, so once again i sold it!:

sold it and got another ph1 dtub, without a doubt the quickest car ive ever owned, absolutely loved this car but i needed something newer n more of a daily driver, also got bored as i couldnt do much else to it!
