l354uge Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Holy thread revival batman! BMW E36 323I Coupe I bought for £480 from a bloke in Fleetwood who wasn't even the owner. But I'd just sat on a train for 4 hours, and then in the back of his mates car from the train station for 30 minutes and the tyres were brand new michelins so I took the chance. Bar overheating a few times when I'd got back to Coventry (fan didnt work so got hot in traffic and coolant came out when I opened the cap, I then refilled it without bleeding, doh!) it never let me down. It was cream crackered though so I sold it to a drifter for £450. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mybootdontopen Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 A Peugeot 106 Graduate. Awful car but my parents bought me it for my 18th so couldn't complain. Crashed it the second day when I drove into back of someone and then 6months later I drove into a securicor van when he was taking money to our Post Office. Soon bought a gen 5 GT4 instead.

Master flex Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 I've had over 30 different cars but here are some I have pics for... First one, yes I know, what was i thinking.... Bit more like it....735 if you must know... Then I went for kit car until I got rained on, then it had to go although I rebuilt this completely. Its a spartan, cortina mk4 based. then I came to my senses and joined the celica world before leaving it again when my block cracked And no they were most def not scooby wheels!!!!! then I saw this and had to have it. Any guesses what it is?? prize is diddly squat Had to sell it due to local mongs constantly trying to steal it That was a sad day. then I got the vert so it all ended well Sort of has the outline of the corvette stingray; but the lights are throwing me off?Do tell!

Crazy Cat Lady Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 The car i owned the previous 12 years before the trade-in deal for my Red: Toyota Corolla 1.9D Ultra reliable, face-lift model year 2000. Toyota sourced the diesel engine design from Peugeot, a common rail 1.9L producing no noticeable horse power but there was a small herd of 69 ponies that could lurch forward on occasion. It was a very dependable bus that got me to work and back, and despite the poor brakes and 'get out and run faster acceleration' it faired far better with road holding abilities, very low running costs, an excellent build quality [uK model] and many endearing qualities that i felt very sorry when the time came to part Debs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
