alfa 75 twin spark (awsome car)
My dad bought a brand new one on a J plate with factory fitted Veloce bodykit.
It may of looked awesome, but it was a heap of shite.... more problems in the 2 years he owned it than all his other cars put together pretty much

I had an immaculate 1.6L Orion, i put some 15's on it and always kept it mint
(shite camera back then )
Then i had an XR2 and hated it!
Then a 205 GTi and hated it so bought the sierra and kept that for 4 years (and the orion wheels)
then the escort for just over a year....
And now the mondy
Sorry to bore you all, thats my ford history

150BHP, RWD, nearly 50/50 weight distribution due to the (chocolate) transaxel gearbox , LSD, Awsome handling, used to drift like a bitch and donut around the gearstick 
, and yes, it did fall to bits all the time and have random warning light panic attacks , but what a fun car, all for Ł400

MP for K.I.S.S
F reg MK3 Fiesta 1.6S in 1995. Thought it was a great little car at the time. Bought another one a few years later, realised how shit it actually was. Oh, how expectations change.

this brings a tear to my eye writing this...
Bought my first car just before i turned 17, after a long search. Was a totally standard 1.1 popular mk2 in Midnight blue with 2 previous owners and 51k. Spent the next 3 years modding it and building a hot 1.3 GT lump for it. Got 6 points lost licence etc.... lived the young lad and mk2 lifestyle. Anyway, the bodywork started to get a bit tired so took it off the road and boguht this beast "just to run around in" while i sorted out the mk2............
3 owners, 54k, fsh.........
4 or so months after buying the Bonus this came along, ran it for a week.......
then things got out of hand.....
Turbo got stripped and scrapped
Bonus became a Turbo with 18psi of boost......
and after all of this time the mk2 hadnt got any attention, so enough was enough, it got stripped and scrapped last month.....
Still got the ID though........
So currently just got the silver Turbo, though im tempted to put this up for sale soon depending on interest.nearly 10k spent in a year and i want to go back to my RWD old skool
