I've had a 92 BRG/white Mini Cooper, which I sold after 19 moths as by that time I'd got
2000 Tahiti Blue/silver Mini Cooper Sport, which I'll be keeping along side my BEP/white MINI Cooper when it turns up at the end of October. Can't wait

In order:

1. 1976 Toyota Celica -> paddock basher, but build tough, it died last year after 7 years of my torture

2. 1981 Ford Econovan -> slowest mule i've ever seen, crap!!

3. 1995 Nissan Micra -> Go kart handling, burns no fuel at all !, reliable

4. 1968 Ford Fairmont -> Classic, gets the most comments from other motorists

5. 1985 Nissan Bluebird -> Another mule, but easy to get parts for

6. 1990 Honda Accord -> Fast, fun but now outdated

7. 2002 Holden Commodore -> Gas Guzzler, awful build quality but fun to do burnouts in

8. 2000 Mitsubishi Lancer -> Best car ever, never missed a beat, thrashed day in day out, slow but fun to push to its limits, good FWD car to learn on

9. 1982 Ford Fairmont -> Pile of 5hit, worst build car i've ever been in

10. 2005 MCS CR/W viper stripes, on order, hopefully worth the money

Nissan Skyline R34 V Spec - flipping fast (with some light tuning...too fast.. )
Subaru Impreza WRX 1999
Subaru Impreza WRX 2001
BMW 330i E46 - too polished too polite but nice sound
Evolution VII - heavily tuned by JUN (an awesome machine but wife and kids preferred to take a bus if i drove it...so very sad to sell it!!!)
