Life before supra?

Just interested to know what car everyone owned before they got hold of their dream car (soop).

 

I had an mr2 n/a and noticed a few on here who had mr2's previous.

It was a great car and thought i owed it to Toyota to buy another one of their cars after over 4 years of faultless fun drving and i have not been dissapointed in anyway.

 

mr2 --- supra seemed like a natural evolution. Next step a tt for me,

as i'm only 25.

 

Anything you miss about your old cars when compared to the supra??

Corsa 1.2 8v - Possibly the slowest car on the road...but loved the fact i could rag the crap out of it and still be doing under the spped limit!

 

Rover 218is (Bubble) - Nice to drive and kept up with Mk3 Golf Gti ;) (And the head gasket never went on me)

 

Supra N/A - Smooth ride and nice loud exhaust ;) Now with Twins

Mk3 Escort 1.6 L with lowered suspension, Janspeed exhaust and an XR3i rear spoiler - turned out to be a rust bucket!

 

Mk2 Fiesta 1.1 with Capri sports rims - had a serious oil leak!

 

Mk4 Escort 1.6 GL - good motor this one

 

Rover 620 SDi - carribean blue, a very smooth ride

 

Escort 1.8 TD - workhorse

 

And after all these high powered beasts, I've now settled down for something a bit more tame .......... NOT!!! :cool:

Uno 45 (stands for ps!)

Clio 1.4RT

306DT

XR3I (mk5)

270bhp MR2 rev2

Supra

 

I miss the character and agility of the MR2, and it did feel special driving it, it was also very direct.

 

I'd love a 500bhp MR2 but I doubt I'd use it as it's a 2 seater.

MR2 Turbo, wife still has it so i still have a drive every now and again. MR2 feels much faster than the sup although its probably only true till around 60. Doesn't seem to be any lag at all in the MR2, the Supra feels a bit bargey in comparison but makes up for it and then some in other ways.

Ok, its not funny now. The guys question was basically "what was your last car". Only looking for the car you owned before the supra not the entire catalogue ;)

 

As Michael says, this has been done to the death. I think i have my list on around 3 threads on here lol.
