Well I am currently on the Saxo VTR, so here is what I had before.

My Westcoast..

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q164/LukePatchett/Westcoast%20-%20S59%20ECB/IMG_0480.jpg

Then my FIRST car, Nissan Micra 1.0

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q164/LukePatchett/DSCF0150.jpg

Cost me £200 with 3 months MOT and NO tax! Taxed it and put it through a 12 month MOT for £70 and sold it on 3 months later.

Great little car even with 95k on the clock.

My Clio 1.2 8v with 172 Bodykit on. Bought it like this, only thing i did, was the rear exhaust (which was put on after this pic)

Got rid after the head gasket went twice, gearbox broke, and enough driveshafts to sink a ship!!

Loved it though!!
