Mk1 Escort roadrally car - not the quickest one on the planet (1600 xflow on a single 40) but huge grin factor every time I take her out (competing or not)
After that in no particulalr order:
- 205 GTI 1.9 - best of the hot hatches... ever. (we've still got 2)
- a mate's Lotus Elise
Scoobies are dull dull dull....Do what thou wiltComment

Scoobies are not really fun with a capital F but compared to, say a Rover 45, they aren't dull! It is the sensible car for me, reasonable size, easy to run and got isofix for the baby seat.
Peugeot 209 GTI - FABULOUS. Had a 309 GTI Goodwood a couple of years ago it was fantastic! Think Mr Windy Anna liked that better than the nob.
Still prefer the exige to the elise.
Had an AX GT years back and loved it! Also had the souped up Fiat127 in the 80s which was lucious fun - would probably scare the fek out of me now, I seem to remember the brakes did lots of things but stopping the car wasn't one of them.
Mk1 Ezzy - truly great fun, did some sprints in one and really enjoyed it!

My lovely little Renaultsport Clio. Stocky and nicely quick. Looked groovy too.
The first car I bought, aged 19, was a Fiat Uno Turbo I.e. Looking back it was rubbish, but I enjoyed it at the time. It was black and I thought it was cool and it was quite brisk in a straight line. I found out how poorly it was put together when I pranged it into a Transit on a fast A road. My car folded as if it were made of papier mache...Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.Comment

Mind you, do that in the T5R and you probably wouldn't go anywhere, just generate a lot of blue smoke from the front wheels...Blog? What blog...?Comment

Originally posted by FranckoFiat 500 made in the 1970ish. Fiat Ritmo in the late 70s was also a respectable hatchback. Regarding Alfas, well, if you go further in the past you find even better models but then again that was a time when an Alfa was an Alfa. 164 was good though, and so was Lancia Thema (they shared a lot of components) and Fiat Croma."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment
