evo 9 GT.

The best evo I've had, even better than the Vi RS TME and the VIII MR Extreme 350s I had previously.

The daftest thing was couldnt find a buyer, so in the end it went to the rally boys and got used to build up a group N rally car! - such a shame it was unmarked and mint.

If i still had it now it would be worth more than when it sold.
Hopefully get another 9 GT one day.

Other than that from way back in the day these are the ones I'd have back; 131 sport in orange, Strada Abarth 130 tc red, Lancia HPE 2.0i blue,, Lancia Coupe Volumex in silver with recaros, Alfa Sprint 1.7 veloce in red, and my Sunbeam Ti road saloon car which I never got to finish/race and it ended up being finnished of and used as a rally car instead of a racing car.

Thumbs up

Mine would be my black mk2 rs2000 WPV626S, then a 1 owner S2 barn find in black D447DBC i think it was 447 or 477 cant be sure now,Took me 3 months to clean the cow sh*t off the underneath, and boy did it stink inside, then last but not least my first series 1 back in 1991 which i sold when I bought my first house, only the 2nd owner, which I traced and bought it back a few years later, and it had had a hard life after I sold it, knackered seats dented, rotten and and in a sh*t state and that was over 12 years ago and I am still working on it, on the road next year.

im only 21 and formally passed test in feb but bought my first car when i was 15 with my sunday washing up job wages from the local chippy. i got told a older lad is sorta knew was selling his car for 50 notes... a red mark 2 golf gti, 3dr, bbs alooys, big bumper model with the smoked rears and square headlights and a mongoose system only 3 months old! this thing wasnt tidy to look at on the outside or inside but it had all the bits you wanted on the car to impress your mates...who still couldnt drive at this point... now it most probably wouldnt of passed a mot for sure but went like stink! thats when we put it down into a ditch one night a few miles away from home and reported it ****** after my old man gave me some advice on not gettin caught!

that was going to be my first project and i miss it dearly!

G411 DVP... may still be out there somewhere...

Also bought a metro GTA for a ton... decked it in 2 minutes flat and handled like it was on rails! good old days...
