About me and my passion for cars

Been interested for a while - must dig out the photos of me looking very young at some classic car show a while ago.

Properly interested since learning to drive however.

My first car

VW Polo Mk3, 1.3 CL, White, breadvan. Put about 26k on its clock before trading it in against my Focus. Still on the road by the looks of things...

I was quite attached to it, but a drive in my sister's KA showed me how much I was missing in terms of driving experience.

Car I wish I still had

Only on my 2nd car and can't really say I miss the 1st.

Suspect I'll have something to put here in a month or so...

My dream car

Ok, how about 'cars I'd like to own and might stand some chance of actually doing so'

Volvo 242, with a stupidly powerful turbo'd Volvo red-block engine :-)

Saab 900 Turbo - black, 3-spoke wheels, factory lowered+bodykit

Saab 9000 Aero. Plus a visit to someone like Abbott or Maptun.

Volvo T5 (850R, saloon, Red, manual)

(spot a theme ;-) )

Audi S2 coupe or RS2 Avant

VW Corrado VR6

BMW M3 (E36 EVO perhaps)

Alfa GTV 3.0 V6

BMW M535i

A Focus with a decent amount of power!

Car clubs I’m in

BUMC, FFOC
