Car history:
Triumph GT6 mkII - joined a big corporate as a graduate after uni and got a small signing on bonus. All the rest of the joiners bought Corsas, Lupos and Rover 25's, I got this :) It was a monster - just had a full rebuild by the previous owner to some kind of streetcar spec. Full photo history (I had photos of the inside of the gearbox being pulled apart), full receipts. Sold it for more than I paid but regretted it immediately as it drove away down the road; it's replacement didn't help...
Peugeot 307 - started spending every weekend in London and the triumph didn't like the miles. At least it had a CD player...
...Many years later...
Triumph Dolomite Sprint - very ratty, had a plan to do it up in a lairy way but never really fell in love with it enough to follow through.
Ford Focus ST 225 - slowly adding to it, got a target of 350 hp in mind over the next few years.
