Then onto my Clio 200 which I recently sold, which I bought a 182 to replace it that I am currently converting to go racing in
 
So at the age of 17 I passed my test and at the time was into the mountain bike scene big time. So my first motor was this ... T4 2.4 synchro transporter!
03082009211.jpg

kept the van for a couple of years but also bought this 1.8 focus, added a set of pro race 3's and I thought it looked smart....
car.jpg

The Vw wasn't fast enough or big enough to cater for my biking and Karting stuff, so I sold the focus and the T4 and bought the sprinter ( horrible color, but was perfect for what I needed) also had a bed in the back ( brilliant after pulling a bird while clubbing and offering her a lift home :wink: lol )

I then bought this 1.6 Leon which had all the Cupra R kit fitted to it...ebay bargain £1250

Sold the sprinter and the Leon to buy my RB 197, started to finally get it how I wanted it to look and then got T-boned and the car written off!

Spend a small fortune on parts and stuff during ownership.. full adjustable FRS, spacer, short shifter, GP kit and on and on..

That got to 2 years old so I sold it and bought..

2013 BMW M Sport Plus Edition 118d 2.0l TD.

Only owned it 8 months but in that time.. I wrapped all the interior trim in 4D carbon, BMW Performance carbon spoiler, BMW Performance gloss black kidney grills, upgraded xenons including new angel eyes, Eibach 35/30mm springs and a few other little bits.

After 8 months and countless problems I sold it for the 200..

Passed in '08

First car, Corsa 1.6 Sport. Done everything to it, spax suspension, vxr brakes, engine change, gsi bumper etc. was so much fun.

Then moved onto a '92 Nova SRi, just minor stuff on that, wheels, suspension and exhaust.

Then Bought my PH1 172 at 18. Again, as always, done a fair bit to the car, coilovers, few engine mods, exhaust etc.

bought 2 **** cars, to make money off, '94 1.2 Clio and a Peugeot 206 Hdi, drove them for a little while until they sold, and then decided to sell the 172 also,

in 2012 then I decided I wanted a new 200 :smile: And here I am now :smile: strangely, all I've done is a panel filter lol. So happy with the car as it is.
