Heres mine - goes in order from 1991 to date. Pretty eclectric as you'll see! The quality of the cars went up and down with my salary/family commitments etc. Cars I loved where the custom Beetle, which had a whale tail spoiler, full body kit and the biggest alloys this side of a monster truck lol. The social scene was superb, with rallys at santa pod and various bug jams around the country, the MG Midget, although it cost me a fortune to keep on the road, was a lovely car in summer, and the Mercedes. oh, and the scirrocco is worth a mention - very solid car. Most of the others I got very bored with very quickly. The Beemers where nice cars - I preferred the 730 to the 328 - but found other peoples attitude to me on the road did actually change lol. I've also had a few bikes and might buy another one for the summer.

so, in chronoligical order -

Austin Maestro 1.3L (first car haha)
Toyota Corolla 1.3GL
Ford Orion 1.6
VW Beetle (Heavily customised)
MG Midget (1977 rubber bumber)
Mini 1275GT
VW Scirrocco 1.8GTi
Honda Prelude (popup lights model)
Vauxhall Carlton 2ltr
Rover Metro GTi
Honda Accord
Ford Escort Mk2
Austin Maestro 1.3 (£100 banger :D)
Ford Sierra 2ltr
Hyundai Lantra 1.6 GLSi 16v (slowest 1.6 I've ever driven but very reliable!)
BMW 730i
Mercedes C180 Classic
Ford Focus 1.9 diesel (company car)
BMW 328 (company car)
Rover 420GSi
Mercedes C200 Elegance (current car)

Bikes
Suzuki TS50cc (trial bike style)
Yamaha TZR125
Yamaha RD350
Kawasaki KGV250
Honda CBR600
Piaggio Typhoon 125

Currently bikeless :(

So has anyone got a more varied motoring history?
