53 plate clio 172 sport , the best car i've had so farr by farr




Im 21 soon, time for a new car , problem is im not sure i'll be able to afford anything better

 

206 is pretty different mate

 

17 = xr3i
18 = xr3i 1.9
19 = xr3i 2.0, mazda 323 4x4 turbo, golf gti
20 = xr3i 2.0, saff cos, escos project
21 = nova TD, saff cos, escos project

 

1st car, 18- Reno5GT Turbo, light mods, lowered, zorst, etc.
Also at 18 had a 1.6 A-reg Sierra runaround.

19 had a Silver Reno5GT Turbo which i modded to 200bhp.
Also at 19 had a 2litre Cavailier runaround.

At 20 I bought a 3door Cossie. Over the next 3 years modded it to 400bhp, antilag, stripped n caged, etc..

Also at 20 I had a moonstone 3door rep with a Janspeed 2.8 Turbo conversion as a runaround.

At 21 I had a mildly modded 205GTI.

At 23 I bought a R32GTR which im slooowly modding to a 3litre 850bhp+ monster (road car).

At 24 got a 1.8 Mk2 Mondeo runaround.

At 25 I bought a 200SX drift car (few months ago)

 

16 I bought a 1.6 mk6 escort 3dr... still with me and wears the plates in my sig!!

17 I bought a resprayed mk2 fiesta which I still haven't turned into a track car yet..

19 I bought a mk3 orion (mk5 escort shape) to use as a 1st car, so the escort is confined to the garage.

Few months later, still 19, I bought a mates throttle bodied 1.8 zetec escort just for the inlet / injection system for the original escort. Broke all other parts off it.

Still got all 4 cars!!!!!!

22:
straight after a ban i bought my ULTIMATE car! my first cossie!

took this from a COMPLETELY std car to a 418bhp car on escos rims,the LOT! but it kept breaking,and it cost more to keep fixing than i earnt!
broke it for spares after it was broken into after a engine blow and i just couldnt afford to do anything else to it,i spent LOADS on this car(ask rich pon or anyone at SCC!)

23:
whilst i had the cossie it broke down a few times! so bought a 1.1 metro,was great,NEVER broke down,even with an empty radiator it was fine!
24:
bmw e30 320i auto 4dr.bought this for 400 sheets in london,17 inch rims (they were buckled to FUCK!) was quite quick,got me around and was good till it just wouldnt go anymore,had big plans including a 3.5 litre engine i STILL own!
24:
1.6 205 gti: awesome handling car,fuel tank split on 2nd day of ownership,got another gti for free with no engine! didnt need anything but the tank tho! was white,no sunroof,white 1.9gti wheels,loved it,was gonna mi16 it
24:
405mi16 4x4 bought to put the engine in the 205,got posted so needed to sell as the 205 developed a engine fault i couldnt trace and i didnt have time or money to swap the engines!
24:
volvo 440 1.7,bought this to smoke about in when the 205 broke!was a bit crap but was 50 sheets with MOT and tax!
24:
toyota yaris,bought this from my mum for 2 grand!(19000 miles! ) and it served me well for a year with NO faults before i sold it on to my sister to fund the latest car!
25:
ford escort s2 shape xr3i with rst lump,got this for a ton,RUNNING! but wanted a road car really and this would have turned into a track car and i dont have a trailer or anything,so its being broken now!

25:
1992 k plate 200sx:i LOV my new car,is very quick compared to the yaris! and is soooo clean and looked after,paid top dollar (2k) as it is really that good,sooo much more than you get ford wise for the cash!
