Cars, you regret to get rid of.

My '68 Camper. Ho hum - sold for the right reason, but should have held on

[gables]

205 1.6GTi (even better than the 1.9 that I owned or the Renault 5 GT Turbo or the Escort RS Turbo.......there was a theme years ago!).

I had the Fiesta RS Turbo then the Renault 5 as a temp replacement for when the RS got stolen, loved those days.

Alfetta GTV sold for 600 in the early 90s. Loved that car but it needed more work than I could do at the time and I had no garage then to store it in.
Now looking to buy the same model for 11K

1976 mustard yellow Vauxhall Firenza.

I was 21 & I thought the panties would drop like the leaves from the old sycamore at the bottom of our garden on a blowy autumn day...

...then reality bites.

Storage seems to be the problem, although I have some open space to store some cars rust has got the better of them apart from the old Citroen which is a mixture of galvanized steel, aluminum, and fiberglass.

My MK1 1.8 MX-5 track day toy. I rebuilt that car twice; the first time was when I bought it back to life and then the second was a car fire which started from the battery in the boot, writing off most of the electrics in the rear end.

I sold it to be sensible last year, which is never a good idea. I bought an S2000 this year with the thought of it being a daily driveable car that I "could" do a track day in.

... Have I seen the track this year? Have I f.....

A 1966 Jag E-Type S1 roadster - sold because my Dad wanted some of his garage space back and my son had just been born. Regret it because realisitically I'll most likely never be able to buy another one.

A 1968 Bentley T1 - still affordable (just) but that one was in such lovely original condition and an early one.

1952 Merc 180 Grey.

Scrapped in 1973. Needed new starter ring. I should have repaired it.

That's lovely - I love old Mercs.
You gotta admire the Germans, only 7 years after they got bombed back to the stone age they come up with this.

[TestMangler]

My 1971 Bond Bug. You don't see many of them around. Bought it in 1980 and restored it back to original colours after it had several amateur resprays by previous owners. have the reverse gear blanked off by an MOT station and you could drive it on your own on a provisional.

You gotta admire the Brits, only 3 years after they got bombed back to the stone age they come up with this.
