cars ive previously owned:

my first ever car:


i did own a clio but no pics

my third car:


my forth car yet another nova:


my fifth car astra only pic i seem to have of it i did put full leathers in aswell from calibra:


and this was my 6th car cavalier this is the one i did properly and didnt give up intill it blew up












then my 7th car i went abit on a wild one and wasnt really thinking about having a family sized car shame this car got written off due to vandalism:





this car was a limited edition car beings it was the formula 2 version.

and this is how i ended up with the escort but hay i like it and is a good size for the family.

im guilty of that myself i have a gsi cav at the min mk2 rs2000 and a 4x4 saph i don't know where the cav fits in but i just like her

chris (benzie)

lol i miss the old cav tbh i wish i rebuilt the engine again after it went pop did all the hard work put a new engine back in but i just wernt happy n lost interest then the rear arch started to go and that was that in the end then went crazy n got the coupe lol but glad thats gone as i have a wee girl thats 3 and getting her in and out of that was a nighmare, and thats one of the reasons behind the cav going aswell cant keep being under the car on the side of the road lol was allways worried when the next time something was gunna go wrong

Most i didnt like apart from the clean green cav, the hyundai looked fine, not my type of car but a millions times better than the nova's/astras you had

For some reason we had one of those Hyundais as a pool car. It was in the same blue too, and it was a properly shocking car - it went fairly well (IIRC I chased Porkie in his Boxster around the back lanes near Brunters once) but it was really quite shit.

By 30K miles it needed a new gearbox, pretty much all the interior trim had detatched itself, and the suspension (all of it) worked it's way loose!

If i was you i'd quickly destroy the pics as they are evidence. Unfortunately this kind of evidence can embarrass you so be quick

If i was you i'd maybe own up to say one nova and a cav and then pretend the rest never existed

welcome to passion ford mate

chris (benzie)

i agree some of them were shit heaps but most of them are not the pics of the cars when finished shamefully the white nova did get a respray so looked good but i cant find the pics the red one at the time of those pics a mate took and the front wheels were bold these things happen u loose pics when ur pc's go pop, as for the slagging ive seen shit loads of ford heaps some worse than my previous cars but hay u learn as u grow up and you do things properly!! i.e with the cav i did the whole hog on that!! instead of the whole slagging why not realise i now have a ford and as previously posted im now trying something different and hope fords stay together abit more instead of just getting on the band wagon, as tbh u can sure see why most people say fuck ford and the ford boys!!

Lee Reynolds

It isnt because they are/were not Fords, it is because they were shit. I'm sure I'm not the only one who opened the thread in anticipation of some pics of some cracking cars, instead we gets pics of cars from the local breakers

ive got to be honest i was shocked at the quality of the cars, its hardly automotive porn is it.

but what a welcome in true passionford style.

Was there any real need for such a big intercooler on that green cavalier?
