[SubCat001]

Pasting pretty much what i previously wrote:

Mine:
Triumph Toledo 1300 - Actually a great little car. Quite spritley hand painted baby blue, nice interior and RWD to boot.

Austin Montego 1.6L - Stupidly Relaible never missed a beat.

MG Montego 2.0i - Bags of torque, great fun, handled suburbly embarassed so many "better" cars.

Rover 416 GSI - Great Rev happy D16 engine, good comfy motorway cruiser, alway made me feel like i was in a bigger car sounded like a beast with the induction kit.

Rover 220 Coupe Turbo - Fell in love with it at 14...Still love it! Certainly Brisk & looks fantastic still. So underated!

Others/company cars:
Morris Mini 850 - I was about 10 and handled the patio suburbly

Volvo 240 DL estate - This was my dads though drove it all the time. Built like a brick proverbial. Lots of RWD gravel action.

Kia Pride Van - The most hillerious thing I've driven blew XR2's away thanks to 12inch wheels and 1300cc MPI engine.

Ford Fiesta Diesel van - Dull & slow

Ford Escort T Diesel estate - worst 1st gear ever & smoked like a train.

Ford Mondeo Turbo Diesel estate - Really decent car shame it was Ford

Renualt Clio 1.4 16v - Great handeling willing engine

4 Vauxhall Corsa 1.0 - Lawnmower engine made for a suprising
fun...basically dont slow down keep it moving.

Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 - Good air con

3 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 - Actually quite nippy

2 Vauxhall Corsa 1.3 CDTi - Unbelievably frugal, torquey and easy to drive. I am ashamed to admit it but i really like driving it.

3 Ford Focus Zetec 1.6 - good handling, well built ford for a change.
