I suppose my car list is exceedingly short if I just look at the ones I have owned for my use:
1999 1.8L Peugeot 306 Meridian 1991 4.0L V8 Lexus Soarer 2006 4.2L Audi A8 I have however had the following company cars Citroen BX (I had it one day and the heater matrix died, spent the rest of its life visiting the garage) 2.0L Diseasel Citroen Xantia - Rolled down a hill twice with the handbrake full on - Finally had the hydraulic system drain itself on an ASDA carpark on a Bank Holiday weekend 1.6L Hyundai Lantra - Surprisingly quick, but naff - My long term hire car after the previous pieces of Citroen junk 2.0L Diseasel Ford Focus Saloon - Someone nicked the alloys and windscreen wipers while parked at a nice hotel - There were even tinies and a sandwich carton left behind. Family cars (The wifes) 1.4L MG Metro - she crashed it the first weekend after I bought it for £1500 - £600 damage - didn't damage the Granadas tow bar though!!! 1.8L Sierra - ex taxi with a talking alarm - did not keep this long 1.6L Peugeot 306 1.6L Diseasel Peugeot 206 - Bought this brand new - when it was 21 miles old, on the way to holiday the Lakes, a pulley siezed and shredded the serpentine belt. 1.4L Peugeot 206 2.0L Diseasel XSara Picasso - Still have it - absolutely rubbish, but does the family stuff and trips to the skip well. Will run it until it dies.

No point having anything expensive with a young family, everything just gets trashed. I'll set the missus on you if you diss her motor again

1978 Renault 5 TS - twin choke carb....zoom. Could see the tarmac through the boot floor. Drove into the back of my mate's mum's brand new Fiesta Popular Plus. Had a different colour bonnet and wing after that...
1982 Volvo 345 GL 5 door - what a looker. Painted the lower half in black hammerite when it started rusting heavily. Workhorse while I was at university. Blew head gasket on the M3....no breakdown cover. Whoops. 1991 Vauxhall Astra SXi 5 door - magnet for police cars... 1991 VW Golf GTi 16v 3 door - still miss that car...black, big bumpers, TSW deep dishes...mmmm 1993 Subaru Impreza WRX (import) 4 door - bought before everyone really knew about them...amazing car, but absolutely ridiculous fuel bills and appalling range 1997 Saab 9000 Aero - still almost mint at 165k miles and 300bhp. Ran it for 7 years. Should NEVER have sold that. Might still buy it back one day. 2002 Audi S8 - still prefer the Saab... Zip
