[Dunc]

I've been into bikes more than cars, but always had a soft spot for MR2s... just never had the money!

1. 1998 VW polo 1.4. got it for my 18th, sold it as insurance was too high

2. 2000 Fiat Punto 1.9d, bought for £300. Broke the handbrake cable, wheel, battery, spare tire, interior mirror and ran out of tax. sold for £375.

3. 2001 Citroen Xsara VTR (1.6 16V). Awesome car for what it was, still got it. LBJs, tires x 3 and timing belt need done then i'm selling it

4. 1995 Toyota MR2 GT T-Bar. Best of the lot. obviously.

I've been pining for a tt supra for years now, that's the reason I bought the mr 8 years ago - and I still can't afford a supra !

Or a bit of american muscle, like a c5 corvette or mustang.

[Clarkey1990]

Quite surprising to see so many steps from shopping trolleys straight to an MR2. I had a Honda Prelude 2.2vti prior to the MR2, not very potent but a decent turn of speed and predictable to drive quickly.
