Car History in a Frame

Post by mrbennybennett » Thu Sep 11, 2014 11:19 am

Just received this picture from my better half for my birthday which I thought was pretty cool

It's not all of the cars I have owned but a few starting from my first - a Fiesta Xr2i to the Exige V6 currently in the driveway

Scary that the money I have spent on cars has gone from about £6k for the Fiesta in 1995 to about £60k in 2014 :shock:

ok so this got me thinking about what 5 I would have.

1) My first "car" was a T25 minibus that I converted into a campervan. I bought it the day I passed my driving test, I have some wonderful memories of that van and the times I had in it :wink:

jobbie brown. this is the only digital photo I have of it. My Boag will lover the curtains my mum made :thumbsup

I really did learn how to drive and carry momentum through corners.

I then had loads of sh17 cars and van's

2) my first S1 elise 170BHP millennium special.
3) 340rR
4) Exige S2 240 cup
5) 211

What 5 cars would you put in the picture?
