my dad had a MGF VVC which was quite cool......until he had a blow out and crashed it (theres a thread about it on here somewhere)

none of the other cars are worth mentioning, i've yet to be 17 (almost 1 week left though) so i haven't yet got a car will do once my mum stop complaining about next door complaining about everything (want a gcar to do up....like reefshark's mini for example)

I've owned quite a few sheds (thought they were great at the time... :whistling: ) not worth mentioning here.

Used to own a short wheel base beach buggy, started with an old 6v VW Variant engine;

MybugRTTS01a.gif

then I converted it to a 12v Beetle engine. Mainly so the lights worked properly at night!

MybugJune04.jpg

Sold it to a guy from Birmingham about 2 years ago.

Currently own my Golf GTI. No performance mods, just some aesthetic work - wheels, suspension, colour coding, uprated lights etc.

Golf5.jpg

Golf4.jpg

and my GSX-R 600

GSXR2.jpg

Driven quite a few nice motors.

Did a supercar trackday at Thruxton when I was 21. Drove a MGF, Porsche Boxster, Ferrari 360 Modena and a single seater Formula Renault.

My mates have owned some good 'uns which they've foolishly let me take out for a spin;

M reg Corrado VR6, '51 BMW 330 coupe, J reg Skyline R32 gt-r (tuned to about 400bhp), E36 M3 Evolution, L reg Supra (non-turbo), custom built beach buggy vith a 3.5l V8 engine (absolute beast!), Mk2 Golf G60 (Jabbasport tuned to 225bhp).

The missus used to have a mk2 MR2 which I've played in, now she's got a mk2 Ibiza GTI cupra sport.

And my Uncle in Colorado's Corvette Z06. Awesome car, shame it's mostly plastic...

that looks realy good, and i don't usaly like the old golfs :)

Cheers TW. I'm into my Veedubs, spent ages looking for a mint GTI until I found it. It's a limited edition colour, and one of my mates is a sprayer at a body shop so he colour coded the valance, mirrors, sideskirts, arches etc and de-badged the rear for me. I spent a while choosing the right wheels too.

With the first the paint and then the crystal lights all round I've tried to make it look like a 6 year old car rather than 16, without altering the fact that it's a MK2 Golf.

Some like 'em, some don't. Each to their own I say. I keep meaning to sell up and get a MK3 VR6 or a MK4 V6 4motion, but every time I clean and polish it I change my mind!

:)
