                Ok, here goes. My past and present:

                Hillman Imp (And you think a 911 can be tricky in the wet.)
                Fiat Panda (“Fiats don’t rust any more, sir”. Only mine did, badly.)
                Ford Fiesta XR2 (Great fun and quite cool at the time. Well, it was in the 80’s.)
                Renault 21 1.7 GTS Savanna (Airfix build quality. And soooo dull.)
                Peugeot 205 (Brought for SWMBO and went on forever. Just like the driver.)
                Mitsubushi Spacewagon 2.0 GLXi (Bomb proof. Sadly. Just wouldn’t wear out.)
                Rover Metro 1.4 GTi (Brill to drive but carp image. So surprised when it was stolen and then stripped.)
                Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 (Neither of us would drive it. Replaced by a Moulton bike.)
                Renault Espace 2.1 TD RT-X (Brilliant all rounder. Reliable too.)
                Saab 9000 CSE LPT (Survived a big head-on crash in this. With only 7 fractures.)
                Saab 900 SE Turbo Sensonic (Very quick with a great clutchless manual box. Died at 140K)
                VW Golf GT-TDi 130 (Cracking car, very quick and 55 mpg. But big bills in old age.)
                Caterham Supersport 1.6K (Wanted one for years and it didn’t disappoint. I am the Stig.)
                BMW Z3 3.0 (Hairdressers car despite 235bhp 6cyl motor. Sold on to an Australian.)
                Citroen DS3 D Sport THP 150 (Current weapon of choice. In yellow...)

                So, here’s a pic of the Caterham…
