I don't have pic's of all the cars I've had but I'll go through what pics I do have, first up was my little 1.4 16v Dual Carb civic:
I then got an E30 BMW 318iS which lasted a week before the timing chain slipped!
I then upgraded to a 325i SE with an MTec 2 kit and azev rims, which lasted a month before I blew the engine whilst diffing
Money was short but I managed to pick up a clean wee 1.2 Nova:
I then went jap and got a pop up light 323 Mazda:
Which I had three weeks before too much speed and not enough skill got the better of me:
I'll start working on the next stage of my epic car journey lol

So I loved the 323 that much I bought another one, but it was the 3dr version of the same chassis as the last one:
Kept it for 6mths and I was offered a Cavalier 1.8 LS at money I couldn't refuse:
This was kept for a year until I met my wife who convinced me to sell it and get a VW Golf GTi:
It also lasted a year but when the gearbox failed for the 2nd time in a year I got rid and got a Vectra SRi 2.5 V6:
I then had the taste for the V6 and wanted more power and got an Omega 3.0 V6 manual with an Elite model interior:
I lost my job and had to downgrade and got a Nova 1.0 Life with a 1.6 engine fitted to her:
Next section coming up lol

After the Nova I fancied a Corsa, having never owned one before and got a wee 1.2 Breeze:
I had got a new job by now and fancied something a bit bigger and got an Audi 80 1.6:
Beautiful driving car, better than my mates 1.8 A4!! I wanted Vauxhall again so I swapped this for a 2.0 8v Calibra:
Loved this car but after a run of bad luck with her (fuel pump relay failed during heavy snow, headlight went on fire!! And someone scored the side of the car!) I sold it and got another Vectra SRi but this time with the 2.2 petrol
But this car had a problem with the steering pump which Vauxhall couldn't get a replacement for as the drive was different from anything they could find so I swapped it for the Corsa SRi 1.4:
I then stupidly got a dose of a Cavalier TD:
Which I hated but I saved a brave bit of money and went back to a V6!!:
This was a 2.6 V6 Omega Elite auto and was a FANTASTIC car! But my hours got cut down and I had to change after 7 months of wonderful ownership

So I got a wee 1.6 16v Civic Coupe:
Got a new job with better hours and was in a motor factors so I treated myself to a C180 Merc:
I then started on a wild Gumtree fixation and started swapping for good stuff:
And the stuff that looked good till I got it home and tried modifying to find a mess:
And then back to a touch of class again with this:
I was still flicking through Gumtree and picked up a nice wee Audi A3 1.6 which was another great car too drive:
But wee were moving house and couldn't afford a van but I swapped the Audi for a 2.4 5cyl Volvo V70 which is one of the best cars I've had:
Quality beyond Merc, BMW etc. . . . But after a few months the fuel bill was straining me so I sold it and got a BMW 318i Estate:
Had this nearly a year but with my wife deciding not to back to work due to the twins arrival and our other two kids I started a journey to downgrade for fuel/insurance reasons etc and got this 1.8 Focus:
Which after two months developed a strange fueling problem so I got rid and picked up a ZR 1.4:
Which I just didn't gel with and I finally ended up in my current wee SXi Corsa:
