Exigepete, I just read your note in your profile, you can change your name on pistonheads you know, very easy to do.

Pete, inspirational history mate, can i ask what you do for a living?

Fantastic GT3RS

[Pumajay]

awesome cars! but i have to ask the same, just what do you do for work? rob banks?

[NumberoftheBeast]

Two lovely cars. I have a 911 Turbo and Clio 200 Cup; similar cars to you I guess.

Well done!

Damn! that's where I've been going wrong!

Wow, what a history! Nice work fella.

Loving the current pairing, can I ask a couple of questions?

How did the VXT and Exige compare?

What kind of mileage split do you have between the Clio and 911? I'm considering 2 car route next (Exige and Ignis sport), and am worried I'd always be in the 'wrong' car

[Snowman23]

Thanks Pete, I think whatever weekend car I get, the daily has to be a 'drivers' car....I spent nearly 5 months in a 1.6 focus at the end of 2009, never again, life's too short!

Did you ever do any touring in the Exige?

[Remagel2507]

That is a stunning car collection - threads like this make me at 18 want to work that extra bit harder so I can hopefully be as lucky as this

My situation is somewhat different from normal, I work in the Merchant Navy (honest, not a porn star!) on Oil and Gas carriers, currently work three months on, three months off on a permanent basis. So I don't have to worry about commuting, all my driving is for pleasure!

Got any jobs going? mines cack and need a new one!

If I don't get in the Royal Navy I'm trying for the Merchant!

Brilliant history - that GT3RS is a cracker!

Always jobs going, three years training for the first level of License. Good money, downside long periods away from home, and its literally work for three months, seven days a week....

How does one go about looking into said career? What companies are best to approach and do I need A levels? Sorry for thread hi-jack..

I thought I was doing well for myself at 27 but I'm way off GT3RS money. Very nice!!

Haven't put my age next to each car to show off, the exact opposite wanted to show younger members how your car history can grow faster than expected sometimes, bit of inspiration! Work hard and play hard!

How much of that was hard work, and how much was lucky inheritence or lottery etc.? Genuinely interested what line of work would pay that well so quickly!
