so now that my stilo has *finally* arrived i thought i'd put up some pics of some of my old cars and my new stilo

click on the pics if you want see a bigger version...

a daewoo lanos "gtr", ok i know daewoo sucks, but it was a special edition from the manufacturer with leather, momo steering and gear knob, modified engine (1.6 with 150bhp), lowered, kit, freeflow exhaust you could stick a pineapple in, etc, all factory fitted, and it went for a good price. ok, don't be put off, keep reading, it gets better!



old shape audi a3 1.8T... saw it on a used car dealership and fell in love when i opened the boot. now that car had sound. plus it was chipped, with a full kit, and those 4 exhausts were a bit over the top, but hey, i was young!



alfa 147 selespeed... i was still young with money to burn, so i bought it new with every piece of kit that could fit on, but i still think it was a beauty!! bought my place so i had to sell it, but it had 18" wheels, ms-design kit, sunroof, and the babes digged it



bought this 1998 uno turbo second hand in 2002 and i still have it. it was pretty standard and low mileage so it was a great deal. yes, they still made the uno turbo in south africa till 1998. i have done some colour-coding, mags, exhaust etc, and its still the fastest car i have owned. the suspension is only lowered in the 3rd pic, the others are older



the punto i got last year, it was really cute, even if butt-ugly from some angles. hadn't done much because it was still new, just leather interior, tinted windows, and rear-spoiler. gave too many problems though, so traded it in for a stilo



and finally, my new baby, 2005 stilo abarth. this car and the uno turbo are the ones i still have. just got tinted windows, leather, pdc, easy go. still needs suspension lowered and decent exhaust, but i've only had it 4 days!

 
Now thats what I call a Members Motors post!

Very nice, although the Lanos might have been sprightly it is one ugly car even with the kit.

Nevermind though cos the cars that followed more than made up for it!

What kind job pays for all of them? Just wondering so I can get one.

Its bn reliable never broke down, never missed a beat, apart from the wheel trim fell off!! Everything works!

Anyway daewoo dont exist now its now chevreolet, plus when the lanos came out werent they owned by GM?
 
lol! well in my experience the lanos weve got has proved to be a reliable school kid taking, baby seat having, pop to shops for groceries carrying workhorse!

fiats can do that :D

poor little kids, was they bad, or was someone just being cruel making them go to school in... a ****ing daewoo :bang: :bang:

*goes to call childline*
 
Lol i learnt to drive in that car....hence driving a fiat!! :D

The reason we got it was it was low mileage and was an ex mobility car and was a bargain!

were gettin rid of it and dave it pains me to say this as i am literally banging my head against the wall but....they are considering a cityrover to replace it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang:
 
yep!! :eek: I sorta talked em out of that one tho...they are also considering a PT cruiser!!!! From one extreme to another :D
 
Wow!!

Think one of the mods will need to edit this thread, start a Lanos arguing thread in LL if you's must.

Daewoo used old GM and Merc stuff in new style shells, Lanos is and old Astra so was the Nexia.

look theres an mainheim in leeds, you can get very nice ex mobility fiats from them, Leeds Road, Rothwell , Leeds, West Yorkshire

i know my ex gfs dad bort a f*rd from there!

Go there all the time, im a regular there :D
 
I quite like that Lanos! ... much as I hate Daewoos (my folks had a Nexia a few years back which was a f***ing shed) that one looks pretty good, with 150bhp it must've been pretty rapid too (y)

Still prefer the Uno Turbo though, looks mint! :D
