Does anyone have any pics of there cars from the 1990s? This was the era (1996 on) that I got mad into cars and started my apprenticeship in a garage, love seeing old photos of people's cars and the mods they did on them at the time. I didn't have a camera in those days so don't have any of mine unfortunately
My first motor, I didn't care that it was a grandad mobile, as it was much quicker than my mates ax's, novas and mk2 fiestas, had electric everything and was cheaper to insure!

I really like that, had one many years ago and was pretty nippy
Sure, all the pics are late 90s, here is my first car - 1.4S with an XR2 kit and pepperpots added.
Then I got the van buggered about with it a bit, Orion interior, stupid big 15in subs and 1.9gti wheels. Was a bit rough...
Had the van broken into so got the shits with it and wanted to be a bit more descrete. My Dad wanted rid of his Sierra so I had it off him. He ended up buying it back off me 6 months later.
And my first proper quick car, the mighty R5 GTT - got this one when I was 18.

Love the tsw blades on the r5 i used to fit those pug gti wheels on anything I could back then lol
Old xr3 from late 90s I and a few mates had. We all kept selling it to each other lol
This is the only photo I have but the guy I was apprentice to built it originallly and it was pretty awesome for the time, he took all the best bits off and sold it to us rabble who fooked about with it a bit.
Had one of these for my first car when I was 18 on a j plate, must have been nearly new back then, mine was a 4 door AXGT but I loved the thing it was great, can't find any pics mind
I had an ax gt that had been prepped for some sort of junior rally that never got finished. We lashed it up and took it to the local massive gravel/mud ground about an acre of land and thrashed it untill it blew. Was awesome fun but shudder to think how much it would be worth now

I had an ax gt5 before the black one. I love them and was looking at buying another one last year but bought a 106 gti instead.
Was into this type of stuff in the 80's/90's. Had several Lotus including a ex Jerry Marshall modified Éclat 520 Sprint that was quick back then. The Peugeot was my race around car & was the car I owned before my Cossie. Very rare it was a TT Supercharged 1.9 205. I see in the background of the Lotus my Daily looks like a Honda Accord.

I'm sure I remember that Orion from either a cruise at Stockport or somewhere like cheadle back in the day
Went many back then, remember clocking 30k miles one year doing shows, cruises...
Did Crewe, Hanley, Stockport, Blackpool, Southport, etc etc with Cruise Northwest, it was all word of mouth back then... I was earning Ł400 a week back then living at home
Used to chuck some good flames out of the back flicking the ignition on and off at 30mph in 2nd gear...
I just spent my wages on my car modifying, insurance was Ł1600 Tpft back then, fuel
Driving is all I wanted to do when growing up, at 15 I owned 3 cars... at 17 sold 2 Sierra estates on and concentrated on my first Orion...
Met the misses at a Stockport cruise back in 2001... unbelievably we lived less than a mile away from each other in sunny Crewe
16 years on we're married, house, littlen
Did take 12 years for us to get married didn't wanna rush

Cool story, short time but massive how times have changed
That red Orion is almost a spitting image of my mates red one at the time. Only difference is he had tsw Imolas but same back bumper and twin dtm backbox. I fookin loved the 90s life seemed so simpler even then. I was the same, all I wanted to do was drive, drive and more driving. I was never indoors ever! Now I love being indoors lol.
