Agreed but i wanted a performance car when i was buying the Citroen but had to commute from London to Reading every day so could not justify owning something like what i have now back then.

[toffee_pie]

is insurance hiked up much for being in the capital? just curious? I guess secure parking is mandatory/.

[SiM22]

I am 28 and pay for the F around £750 (fully comp) with out secure parking listed on my insurance. Saying that i used to pay 800 for the DS3....Do not understand how they make up the prices for premiums (well i do but it sometimes does not make sense :-) )

[toffee_pie]

thats not bad, I was expecting much worse.

[MNMJ]

Some of your cars are pretty grim, but I may well have owned the nastiest of the lot: Morris Marina 1.3L Coupe, complete with vinyl roof and plastic air dam. With a DIY re-spray in light metallic blue.

Others include:

Fiat Uno 70SX

Rover 216 GTi

Metro 1.1C

Peugeot 306 D Turbo

2 x 'Classic' Subaru Impreza Turbos

Mini Cooper S

Impreza WRX Prodrive Mk3

Impreza WRX Sti Prodrive Mk 3: The WRX got written off by a crazy Welsh lady in a Fiat Uno. I realised if I'd been going faster I would have missed her, hence the upgrade

Impreza WRX Sti Mk 5

Lexus IS-F

Now its a neck and neck race between an RC-F and Jaguar F-Type V6S Coupe to replace the IS-F in the Spring

Quite different replacements and very different cars. Jag for me given those two options. Do you need back seats? New lotus evora 400, 911, v10 r8?

[giorgoXXI]

Renault 19 16v

Ford Mondeo 1.8 MK I

Mazda 6 2.0d

Mazda 6 2.0d again after writing off the previous one

and finally the IS-F

Not tempted at the moment to switch given whats there in the market.

[Dar]

Here goes: (all 4/5 door except CLK)

Suzuki Vitara 1.6

Suzuki Grand vitara V6

Merc C320 cdi sport

BMW 320i sport

BMW 318i (company car - was ok on tax but I could run faster! also not great on reliability)

Lexus RX400h (still have this - best all round car and most reliable car I've ever owned - has 165k miles on the clock (regular drives to Devon) and still drives as new!)

Golf mk4 1.4L (London run around) - very reliable and chip to service (did most myself)! I regret selling it!

Merc CLk320 CDi sport - best looking car I've owned (sorry IS-F)

Lexus IS-F

[MNMJ]

I've just read an article about how easy it is for hackers and crims to piece together information about us from social media. A common security question is "What was your first car?"

So if there are any hackers about, my first car was actually a Ferrari 512BB, not a Marina. The Marina was just a smokesceen to conceal my incredible wealth and good taste as a teenager.

For the next car, I don't actually need back seats, so the F-Type is a real option. However I'm checking every journey now to see if the Jag would work. Obviously I wouldn't be able to get my bike on the back seat, so I would probably go for one of these:

The RC-F would be an option if a dealer could come up with a extraordinarily good deal for a car in the right colour.

This is pretty much a dream list for me - in particular the Clio v6 / Exige / GTi. All you need to do is add a TVR and a Porsche 911 (993) and it's there.

What do you plan next?

[kieron1977]

The Clio v6 was prop my favourite car, had it 5 year and only changed because it got stolen, was a very sad day. every single time you drove it, it was just a massive occasion, people used to look at it, talk about it, take photos of it, just one of those cars and grabs people's attention

Hmm next car- not really looking just yet, but at moment i thinking of either a Nissan gtr, 997 turbo or Jag xkr-s
