Shame on the europa looks BEAUTIFUL.

I sold a mk3 triumph spitfire for 1750 around abouts. Needed it to pay for uni bits and pieces.

Anyhow, few years later when im looking for another soft british roadster and theyve rocketed to 5 grand. Saw one for 9 grand. Gutted much.

Not nearly as nice as some of the cars here, but I was gutted I sold this one. MK1 gti campaign with a TSR 1.9 pack C engine. Just wonderful fun!

My old MR" Turbo was a hoot. In a way, I wish I had kept it until MOT time just to see what advisories it came back with. If I had kept it I could have spent this wet summer enjoying it. But every car is sold for a reason.

Triumph TR6.

Sold to pay for my wedding. Bitterly regret selling the car - shold have taken out a bank loan to pay for the wedding but it didn't seem a good idea at the time.

Hindsight - what a bh!!!

My M reg 1.3 ford escort when I was 18. There was nothing wrong with it but I wanted something I thought was cooler so bought a 1.2 Clio to replace it...

This!!!
Bought when I was 19 for £500 with no previous owners and 34500 miles on the clock. Was sat for 4 years before I bought it but no rust at all and cost me 2 steering rack boots to get through MOT. Was pestered by a dealer from the day I bought it and thought £3000 was a mint offer.
