Dont know what car or who owned it but there was a lovely white MkII escort with tarmac arches, wide 15's and a set of tiger strips in max power years ago. Always did and still do want a car just like that. (only now I want one with a YB, not a pinto on 40's!!)
Always wanted my neighbours RS500, coont had a Moonstone Blue one at the age of 22, i was only 9 at the time in 1990

I remember RS Kicker pulling up next to me at a petrol station in Peterborough, and I fell in love
Used to see it around quite abit, and the yellow Carlton of theirs too, as the editor at the time lived in the same town as me (Oundle)

i remember a dark metallic blue X-packed mk1 XR2 in fast ford or maxpower mag in the early 90's with huge wide chrome lattice/multispoke wheels that i had on my bedroom wall, would love to see pics of that again or know if it is still in existence!
i also remember that yellow carlton from max power.
cant remember many others specifically, but i always liked the escort and fezzas RS turbo's, mk1 & mk2 escorts, mk1 granada coupe's, cossys, R5 turbo's, pug 205 GTi's, lotus sunbeams blah de blah.

I remember the build up of project kicker in max power, thats back in the day when Sticky Butler-handleson used to be a staff writer on there!!
Anyone remember the Courtney vauxhall Nova 16v turbo about the same time, in dark metallic green, full leather etc etc - thats the only vauxhall ive ever looked and thought "i could drive that!!"
Lets not forget the grey and yellow S2 that fast ford did, with the morettes and the PE 1.9 Engine !!!!

Used love any Dimma Kitted 205's with proper dished rims. Still love them aswell
Also used to like the original Carisma R5, now think its shite with a crap kit with panel gaps and pointless interior.

Me, I lusted after the Fiat twin cam powered Skoda Rapid in two tone yellow and black that Matt Howell made when he was at Street Machine magazine. I was given the opportunity to buy it without the engine when i worked on Revs and always regretted not taking him up on the offer.
