{drove mother's car -> 1.8i Cav, slow and just understeered al the time)
1992/3 Rover 414Sli, Nice engine fun to rev, until head gasket leaked all the oil and engined seized (bought a write off changed engines and sold)
1996 Rover 420GSi -> Bought to do up and sell for profit (succeed :) ) also ran for few weeks after previous rover troubles
1998 Mondeo GLX TD - got arse ended (got 2.5* what i paid for it off insurance, shame i'd spent a bit on it)

1994 Shitreon AX 1.0 Debut, owned for 3 weeks, sold on at small profit
