Ha I think im nearly the winner

My first car when I was 17 was an 88 astra(n13 pulsar) I still love it as it had a lsd and it was a 5sp 1.8l..... learnt to get things fixed when there on the way out after I snapped a cv and ended up writing the car off (to many fwd skids lol).

Then I bought BIG RED a 1.2L 94 barina I thought it was a massive upgrade from the astra kept that for a year still have it but am in the process od putting it up for sale

Then I turned 19 and decided I wanted a real car and bought my 03 5Sp xr6t ute couldnt b happier (unless I get an edit but probably wont)

1. 1995 1.5L auto lancer (not fuel injected). Installed 15 inch rims, extractors, exhaust, $500 spoiler, new paint job and I had to drive the thing in the truck lane on the freeway because it didnt have the power to make it up the hill. What was I thinking.

2. 1993 toyota celica. Not a bad car

3. 1999 Jeep wrangler. Kept it for the summer and then got the sh*ts with putting the top up and down. Great fun on the sand though.

4. 1995 vr commodore. Threw eggs at it and scraped them off with a paint scraper. Someone ran into the back of me and I couldnt be arsed getting out of the car so I just drove off and waved.

5. 2003 xr6T. Apart from the jeep on the beach this is the best yet. Wish I got a manual though.

I had a Subaru 1800 4wd as my first car. Great little 4be just precious little clearance. Jumped it off a couple of cliffs at one point. Needless to say, it didn't last long.

Then got an '86 FourRunner. Went round Oz in it! That died of rust.

Do I notice any difference between these and the T.... yeah.

Do I miss having a 4wd? F*#k NO. :buttrock:

I upgraded from a 96' EF Fairmont (1st car) that had a full exhaust and mild cam, I was stoked when it made 130rwKW!!

Now I got a 04' BA XR6t that pulled 287rwKW on the weekend, and I want more!!!

I definatly have no regrets on buying the BA :blink:

Series III VS V6 Commie Ute

Just the usual p-plater/first car mods.

Zorst, CAI, stereo sh!t, etc.

Done 110,000 clicks in it since my 18th (it just clicked over 208,000 :biggrin:).

It's taught me a lot of good lessons, especially those relating to rear wheel traction lol :P

Now I'm off my P's and pickin up my new '05 mkII T on wednesday. WOOP! :D

lol I use to have a 94 Expensive Daewoo appolo. its such an upgrade to a xr6t, even though I use to get the appolo sidewayz with maccas trays under the back wheels, the xr requires no effort to get where u want to be, the worst difference is the petrol lol :buttrock:
