My first car was a 1979 Sigma station wagon in 1993. After that I had a Cortina, then another Sigma sedan, then a Corolla, then a Subaru Leone with a digital dash in 1996, which I had until I went to NZ in 2000. There I bought a 1992 BMW 525i which I had until 2007 when I moved back to Australia. Then I bought a BFII XR6 Turbo. It's definitely the best car I've ever had!

It's been a nice progression of cars, from the crap in the past up to the niceness today.

[atto666]

lets see, firstly I had a kf laser tx3, then moved on to a mk1 escort, 1600, weber, extractors, hotwires, was a good thrasher, sold that to a mate and picked up a factory manual 5.0l VN station wagon, blew a set of tyres every weekend that the sh*tbox was moving, then, after a long search, jumped into an immaculate 1980 mazda 323 4 door, and proceeded to destroy its originality by throwing in a 12a mild port, which subsequently got the car taken off me by the cops/rta/epa (something about laws on extensive modifications and requirements of cars to have mufflers, whatever dude), so I got a 1979 2 door mazda 323, sold that for a 1979 mazda rx7, put a 13b bridgy in that, but learnt my earlier, and very expensive lesson, and fitted 2 mufflers and one resonator to that, sold that when I jumped into the falcon, ba xr6t, premium, premium and premium. I bought it because I was sick of enjoying driving customers cars (I work for a ford dealer) but as good as it is, I never really got over my mazdas, so I got another 1980 2 door 323, still building it as we speak, 12a bridgy, big trans and diff setup, turbo later on, and last week me and my missus picked up what could be the best car, and move of our lives, an absolutely, immaculate, low milage, 1968 HB torana, so that's 9 cars and im just 23

I've kept it pretty simple:

- 06' Bolwell Shark 50cc Scoota (Spun up in the wet )

- 07' Focus CL Smooth Pack - dad then changed his mind and I ended up with....

- 98 AE101 Corolla; whacked in a decent stezza and got myself a radar detector while their still legal over here
