for me it would have to be my £150 escort xr3i (105bhp) bought as a cheap run about while i had the engine in my fiesta replaced.
dazza can agree how mint this car was...for £150 i got...
*16' mondeo rims (swapped with the old 17's off my fiesta)
*eibach lowering suspension
*full magnex stainless system
*k&n panel filter
*cd player
*full service history
*and 6 months MOT
i loved this car, yes it was shit, but it was shit in a good way! sold it for £650 about 6 months later!

My '81 Golf GTI. It was my first road car and just so much damn fun. It was only 17 months old when I clipped a telegraph pole on a country lane, did a full 360 midair and landed in a field....sniff..sniff

that even after he finished with it.

my first series 1 turbo. It was my first proper car and I'll always miss it.
I didn't want to sell it, but I lost my job and ran out of money.
I cried as I watched it being driven away.
