Doh, missed this...

Gta Nizzy? The old MG Metro turbo was better, you could easily put it's engine into a Mini ;)


Can't find any pics of my first, but google 1983 Mini Sprite - it looked like that (I so want another one!)
The Jetta we've done (again that one wasn't mine.)
I then moved onto this:
Image

Then 4th time around (and current)
Image

Which of course currently looks like this (any excuse):
Image

Last winter I went for this as my winter hack:
Image

Erica had an old boxy white Fiat panda that I can find any photos of atm.
Moved onto a Mini that eventually looked like this:
Image

Which looked like this inside:
Image

Replaced with a green mk1 mx5, which was replaced by another green mk1 mx5:
Image

Which had some nice bits in the interior, and of couse she now has:

Maybe this should be in a new thread :lol:

Wash your mouth out it was a GTi (only an Spi model though) very quick though and more power than a turbo, it had a close ratio box and a quick rack as standard. it understeered everywhere so you just drove everywhere with the pedal in the carpet. I nearly bought one to do stock hatch in but decided the Elise was a better place for my money.

Ah ok, the Gti was the much better car right enough.

Had a soft spot for the 3 door 2 series rover (behind you) too. My dad had a 216 GTi in white, though the one behind you is a 214i I reckon, and in tahiti blue would have to be the later model with the (uglier imo) black grill at the front...

JJ - remind me to rip you next time I see you for chavving up your smart with Merc badges!

I remember laughing at what I thought was one of the salesmen getting out of a part-exed smart that had been brought in, I was in stitches pointing at it, only to find out..... it was the cars owner who had brought it round the back!!!
