You lot are car whores!

 

In my 14 year car history I've owned 4 cars, 2 of which I still own!

 

Age 17 - 1988 1000c Mini City - This has gone through many transformations and many engines. My 1st car and I still own it. It's currently got a 120 bhp 1380cc engine, piccies can be seen in my garage.

 

Age 21 - 1990 Mercury Grey Escort RS Turbo - This one had a low compression 1650cc engine, with hybrid turbo and a charge cooler. It made 210bhp and for a car that weighs less than a tonne went like a rocket!

 

Age 25 - 1993 Zircon Blue MR2 Rev 2 Turbo - Hybrid turbo, uprated intercooler etc, made around 270bhp. Was a lovely car and owned it for 5 years!

 

Age 30 - 1993 Black T61 6spd Supra - Always wanted a Supra and seemed the perfect car to upgrade from my MR2. Having spent far too much money on the escort and the MR2 tuning them, I wanted to buy a Supra tuned to a spec I'd otherwise end up at. Luckily for me it didn't take long for Ryan's to come up for sale :)

 

Some piccies (can't find any of my RS on this comp):
