My car history
Discussion
thought it would be cool to do a run through of my car history
1. my first car (when i was young and nieve (ps2, tv screen, subwoofers, big alloys, you know the drill))
2. after that i went all sensible with a brand new 1.8 sri astra
3. My focus st170 that was tuned to 204 bhp,
4. Got a liquid yellow R26
5. Had to sell that to start up my business so downgraded to a e36 328 convertible
6. because i had to constantly carry around superglue and ducktape when i had the bimmer i wanted something newer again so got a astra coupe turbo (201bhp)
7. And here we are, could afford it again so treated myself to another R26
update June 2012-----------------
8. I always fancied one so I treated myself to a 313 bhp 350z, had this for about a year
9. Upgraded to the 370z about 2 months ago
10. And got myself a "sensible" car for the daily commute 2.2 twin turbo diesel C5
So as it stands I own the 370 and c5!
Currently eyeing up GTR's though
Update Jan 2013------------------
11. Brought this a while ago but anyway, the Citroen has gone to make way for an estate for the dog.
Insignia CDTI sport tourer VX-line, really please with it for a work horse, great car!
So currently rocking the 370z and the insignia
Update October 2013---------------
370 and the insignia have both gone, as per my other readers car thread I now have a A180 Cdi amg sport as the commuter:
And I'm in the market for an M6 as a weekend car to replace the 370z, looking at a few this weekend :-)

Lol, yeh! I spent hours doing that graffiti on my garage wall! You like yes?
Its actually my local park and ride, just quite like it for a photoshoot location, untill they drew that lovely graffiti masterpiece!
I liked the liquid yellow r26 too, I just got such a good deal on the white one I couldn't turn it down!

Big fan of the 370Z looks fantastic, interesting colour on the 350Z too.
But that C5, that took me surprise, looks really good. I know nothing about them, have you lowered it or is on self-levelling stuff that drops after being parked up a few days? Wheels look great on it, pretty good two car garage that I'd say.

I like the Citroen, I'm considering one myself at some point since they have depreciated so much and would make a comfy commuter car. What are you getting mpg wise and has it had any issues?
It is truly a great comfy commuter car! Only slight downside is the mpg, averaging about 32 but that's my fault for getting the 2.2 twin turbo one, the 2.0hdi will be much better!And yes this has the hydro pumatic adjustable suspension, got controls in the centre console and a sports mode!
Here it is fully jacked up lol
