Re: How many cars have you owned?
I learnt to drive at the ripe old age of 46 and since then have owned 4 cars myself and the wife has owned 3. To me a car is a means of getting from A to B as reliably as possible. I'm not interested in a penis extension.

G reg Ford Escort Cabriolet shares with a friend until I wrote it off in a head on collision (overtaking on a blind bend).
Audi TT
BMW 116
Skoda Fabia VRS
Audi A3 S line
Loved the TT why I traded it in for the BMW I will never know that was an awful Car I thought. The Fabia surprisingly was a decent looking car and quite nice inside.

Re: How many cars have you owned?
Yes, I have. I need something to do in retirement! The Lancer, Quattro, Chevette and Maserati are keepers, the other 3 will rotate although the 335D will be staying for a while because it’s the almost perfect daily smoker.karatekid wrote:BennyD .... you have seven cars ?

Re: How many cars have you owned?
No, mine’s the HS 2300 with about 135. Apparently, all the HSRs started out as HSs but added a factory supplied kit. IIRC, the kit included the arches, wheels, exhaust and twin twin-choke dellortos. Like the Quattro, it’s a car I’ve always wanted but, until now, couldn’t really afford. It shows how far cars have come since 1978 when it used to be a fast hatchback; my wife’s dog carrier (320D Touring) which has 295,000 miles can leave it for dead round the back lanes. It has better acceleration, brakes, handling and even has air con. The Chevette has no toys at all. Progress isn’t always bad!karatekid wrote:Just googled the chevette. Looks awesome.

Re: How many cars have you owned?
Wow, you really are a VAG man! I like your thinking with the R, I’m likely going to replace the 320D with one next year. It’ll be an Estate and will likely get breathed on to give it a bit more oomph.Belial wrote:85 Mk 2 Golf 1.3

Re: How many cars have you owned?
Modern cars may have all the toys and adhere to the latest safety regs but old cars like the 205 gti and the Escort xr3i will always have an army of fans who refuse to accept that the new versions are better. I suppose they were the original hot hatches for the masses.

For all the cars I've owned I would have my XR2 back in a heartbeat, over all the others

Re: How many cars have you owned?
Sure am dude. I grew up with parents having an Audi 80 and a beetle which is still there, and there's been plenty of other dubs since. The Leon is the first time I've delved away from Deutsch but it's a decent runaround (though not particularly exciting). Looks like you know your stuff, but I think the choice between the golf R and S3/S4 comes down to either wanting a more sporty ride, or a more refined one. There's also the Leon Cupra of course which has got good ratings in this generationBennyD wrote:Wow, you really are a VAG man! I like your thinking with the R, I’m likely going to replace the 320D with one next year. It’ll be an Estate and will likely get breathed on to give it a bit more oomph.

Re: How many cars have you owned?
That’s a fairly eclectic, but impressive, list. I really like the Alpinas you’ve had, I might have a look at one one day and see if they are as good as I think they are!

Re: How many cars have you owned?
I must say, aside the M3, I would have my Lancia back in a heartbeat. Sure, it broke down almost all of the time but when it was motoring it had something no other car I've driven has come close to.karatekid wrote:Modern cars may have all the toys and adhere to the latest safety regs but old cars like the 205 gti and the Escort xr3i will always have an army of fans who refuse to accept that the new versions are better.

Re: How many cars have you owned?
1. Mini 950 I think, Union Jack painted on the bonnet - purchased to learn in but never drove it
2. Hillman Imp Chamois - as above
3. Golf MK1 GTI - learned to drive in it
4. Saab 900 Turbo
5. MK1 Escort RS1600 BDA dry sumped engine - ex works rally car (going for a small fortune now)
6. Lotus Cortina MK2
7. Daimler 250 - looked like the Morse Jaguar
8. Range Rover Classic
9. Audi S4 Avant
10. Audi 3.0 Cabriolet for the missus
11. Audi RS4 Cabriolet - my favourite but got rid as Audi were never able to fix the brake disc warping problem, never buying another Audi again!
12. Don’t have a car at the moment but drive my wife’s Volvo V40 when briefly at home which I bought a year or so ago for her - looking at a new or newish Volvo V90 now when I get back home in a few months and need a car of my own after being impressed by the build quality of the Volvo.
