I know many of us on here have had quite a number of cars over the years, so what I'm wondering is - what's everyone's car biography; Here's mine (granted very few of them ever made it onto the road but they were whole cars and I owned them, even briefly!!); Got my first car given to me when I was 12 - a 1960 Austin Seven Total car list - 13 Minis (including the current fleet), 3 Austin Metros, 2 MG Metros, Mk2 Vauxhall Astra Diamond, Mk2 Vauxhall Cavalier SRi, VW Beetle, MGB (current), MG ZR (current). So 23 cars in 19 years - not bad going! lol |
