Cars I've owned:-

1962 Morris Mini (1st Car) 1980 - 1982
1975 Triumph Dolomite 1850 1982 - 1984
1975 Triumph Spitfire 1500 1984 - 1988
1971 Triumph GT6 (Still owned and loved!) 1988 - now
1985 Vauxhall Astra 1600 1990 - 1993
1989 Rover 216 Saloon 1993 - 1995
1993 Rover 414 Saloon 1995 - 1999
1999 Rover 214 Hatch 1999 - 2004
2004 MINI Cooper (My current everyday car) 2004 - now

I believe that all my cars have been made in England, now there's patriotism for you

I've also partly owned the following as although they were/are registered to the missus I've paid a proportion of the cost:-
1997 Peugeot 406 1.8 Saloon 2000 - 2002
2002 Citroen Picasso (Current family run about) 2002 - now

The 2 worst cars to drive were/are the Peugeot and the Citroen, although I'll excuse the Citroen as it comes in useful when you want to move stuff about as it's like a van when you take the seats out.

The MINI Cooper is the best everyday car that I've owned and definitely the best to drive but the GT6 feels like a part of me as I've owned it for 16 years, man and boy! It's slower than the MINI, doesn't handle as well is less practical but is still a pleasure to drive and turns more heads.
