1. Peugeot 102 sr (was dead when i got it, fixed it, took it to a field to lear to drive and after about 30 seconds of pot holes and ruts etc the passenger strut came through the bonnet
there wasnt even any rust
)
2. ford escort mk4 5 door estate (first car i drove after passing my test)(died in rather quick head on with a brand new taxi, that died aswell :devil: )
3. mk3 1.1 carb fiesta (bloody good fun, handled great just lacked power... engine mounts were shot and if i accelerated too hard the alt would eat a rad hose.. usually 1 - 2 a week
) killed the engine by overheating it, replaced that, lowered it 60mm, scared myself silly with the handeling, then managed to break the box replacing the wishbones, was sent to the scrap yard
4. Peugeot 405 gl, 1.6. went pretty well for what it was, nice and comfy too.. power stearing was dead from the day dot.. my mum gave it to me while i was saving for a new car, i had it 5 months, managed to pretty much kill it but it still ran... smoke poured from it etc etc etc.. and we still part ex'd it for a nice profit
5. mk3 1.1 injection fiesta, bog standard and orrid!!!! bought it off my brother dirt cheap as he bought it 2 years before starting to even learn to drive, drove this one into the ground aswell, clutch was dead, breaks screwed, 4 bald tyres, engine on its last legs, and part ex'd that in for No 6 for a tidy profit again
6. PATCH
has cost me a sodding fortune in gear boxes alone, but i keep repairing her and running her time and time again
7. rover 25, bought of mum dirt cheap to use while patch was off the road for some time, orrid bloody thing, mate ran into the back of it and i gave it back to her, didnt even ask for any money it was that crap
9. mk1 brave HGT... an absolute peach of a car... so so so so so so so gutted i rolled it
i want it back
8. mk5 escort... work run around and Patches current replacement, bloody awful thing but it works...
errrr yeah, get Patch back on the road and see what happens from here on
