    In Order:
    1995 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 GS200
    2002 Nissan Micra Tempest
    Currently drive:
    2005 Mini One Convertible (dads!)

    So over to you, ever horror and beauty that you have been lucky (or unlucky) enough to own :D

    So far just one: 1992 dodge dakota truck. Great truck though I've used it for all sorts of work (trunk pulling, yard work home depot stuff etc) and also use it for the school's drag racing team. I've had it since I was 15 so about two years.

    1969 BMW 1600 - 1st car, only had it for a couple of weeks, didn't run worth a sh*t.
    1972 BMW 2002 - My cousin gave it to me after the 1600, project car but it also didn't run.
    1985 Camaro - first new car in high school, it was the biggest POS I ever owned.
    1980 BMW 633 CSI - A couple mods done, fast but had some costly repairs, lost to a hail storm in 1995
    1997 Ford F250 single cab 5.4 liter gasmonster. Shop truck, currenty in Houston being used by my other family members.
    1964 Chevy C-10 stepside My old hot rod project truck when I had the bodyshop.
    1995 Acura Integra LS My current car with a little bit of work done to it. It's paid off & runs like a champ.
    1987 Honda Elite 125cc scooter. Currently in Houston but will soon be back up in Fort Worth within the month. It makes a great track bike & will most likely wind up at MSR for Fchatters to use.

    The one I bought had the radio and climate control ripped out and harnesses cut. I had to do a lot of work to get that stuff fixed. I think they are great cars for the prices...I bought my old one for $8100...where can you get a car that good looking with that much power for 8100 bucks? They are gas guzzlers though....it draws a fair amount of attention, but not too much. If you ever want to catch someone's eye, you can put down the jacknife rear windows next to them...very cool to watch...motor and trannies are very strong. The accerlation is ok, not the best...but you can definitely feel the torque.
