Our Cars (dream or actual)

[Tripleterror]

Being a poor married man with a mortgage my current cars are not of particular note but I've had some interesting previous cars.
With the risk of showing my age, my very first car was a Ford Cortina MK2 1600 GT, still remember the reg no, LOD894F.

@Simon:

What  ???  not the V35 - really, over the R34 !!! and No. 2!

(should really move this to a new thread)

From 2000 - 2010, it's Veyron, GT-R 2006 and probs the S5 or R10Audi…

[Tripleterror]

Weird guys, the Citreon SM has a Masersti engine doesn't it !!!

Seul, look at this:

Its frickin awesome surely?

[Seul]

Both made when Citroen and Maserati were absolute shite?.. Wouldn't surprise me…

[Seul]

Isn't that an old AX?.. I was thinking of the mid-90'ies car when you mentioned SM…

[hectic]

- not an AX - that was a shite hatch made of kleenex and spit.

Me at 18 with my first car a 1938 Vauxhall 10, I learnt to drive in this!

[Seul]

HOLY FUCKING COW Simon - that's brilliant!!!!!!!

Hectic: man I back you on that car then… LOVE those old crazy Citroens... The full-op, luxury versions were so far ahead its time, we (I) still don't get 'm!..

[hectic]

Are those cowboy boots I see Simon?

Sweet first car!

[Simon]

Could be this was the late 80's Showing my age now!

[hectic]

I reme@Simon:

Could be this was the late 80's Showing my age now!

I remember those "western" belts too

[Tripleterror]

That SM looks fuckin' awesome Hectic.
I nearly bought a black one once, 'till I found out how much they potentially cost to run.
Nice learner car Simon, I learnt in a Datsun Cherry around Lee on Solent !
By the way Simon, the SM was down near the Alver Bank Hotel.

Hectic, if you ever go to the Haynes Museum, check out the SM there, its beautiful with a lime green velour interior. Sounds nasty, but is actually sweeeet.

[Simon]

That old Vauxhall was great, 3 gears, no seat belts suicide doors and a top speed of 50. We had the best of times in that thing at 6th form.

[Tripleterror]

Simon, Did it have a syncro gearbox ?
