My best car has got to be the one I use daily. Gets me to work and back whatever the weather, great in the snow. Can be driven "sensible" easily but when you want to "play" it is awsome, practical and fun.



Only mods are a stainless exhaust and an uprated panel filter.

These were my favourites

Cavalier 16V this was just a hooligan mobile very young and silly when driving this.


MK3 Astra GSi which I put turbo engine in and 6 speed box, Hybrid turbo loads of power useless in the wet but funny.





Vectra ST200 number 17 of 34 one of only 3 black ones. Immense handling and stopping for such a large car just needed more power.

my first car was a ren 5 gts (was shocking thinking back about it)

then got a fezzie mk3 1.6s
on my 19 birthday i got given a mk2 honda crx 1.6 16v.....and i was hooked.
over a few years i ended up owning 10 of them (a few at once to lol)

decided to do a project one with things i had learnt over that period. got a project crx....found out it was full of filler and pretty much worked non stop on it for 2 years (yes it was on the road at the time in all states....even when it was in about 15 colors!) i never got pulled.

built it myself, did the bodywork with a friend, built the engine, painted it, wetsanded it, learnt how to and them mapped the ecu myself on the road and on the dyno. was gutted to see it go, i never did finish it, the engine was making 210hp and 158lb/ft on the stock B series cams, would have made i reacon around 240+bhp (not bad for a 2 liter nasp engine i built on the floor in my garage!) got over 500 pics of everyhting in my photobucket album

cars in birmingham somehwere now









what it looked like








was gutted to see it go, now in a crappy mk4 golf gti...the windows fall out at random intervals, eats coil packs and ignitor units, has even worse mpg than the crx and its not even got a mod on it or been remapped.

next car will be an accord type R me thinks lol

Mine's my current drive.

2007 B7 RS4 Saloon.

4.2V8 - Stage 2 Remap - Manifold Polished & Ported - Pre-cats Gutted - Cold Air Feed - Panel Filters - Torque and Top Speed Limiters Removed.

Pushing close to 450PS and 500nm torque. Stealthy and pisses most other drivers off
