        All pictures of these cars were not mine (DS3 Is though) but represent the exact make, models and colours of the cars I have owned.

        Started off with an Opel Ascona bought for me the day I passed my test, a month and a week after my 17th birthday


        Crashed that after 6 weeks and was bought a brand new one of these by my dads company as a company car, Vauxhall Nova GTE


        Acted like a nob in that as a 17 yr old boy racer and had it taken off me, boo hoo😥

        Scraped some cash together and bought a Mini 1275gt


        Rotted away so then bought a mk1 Vauxhall Astra GTE


        Had for a while but floor kept needing to be welded so traded it in for a Renault 5 Gt Turbo (my favourite car of all time)


        Then bought a brand new 2 bed semi for 35k and needed 2 and a half grand for a deposit so R5 had to go 😭😭😭😭

        Replaced by a Fiat Panda


        Only for a short period as then bought a Rover Metro Gti (as quick as the R5 Gt Turbo)


        Got stolen so then bought a sensible family car, a Citroen ZX


        Stolen and burnt out so bought a Fiat Punto Sporting


        Got a job with a company car so wife got the Punto and I got a brand new Citroen Xsara


        Had that for 80k miles replaced by Citroen C4


        Another 80k later replaced by Toyota Prius T4


        To leave me to date with this


        Probably looking at this as the next Racoon mobile

          Some of these are pics taken off internet(library pic)

          First car was a 1980 Citroen Visa Club 652cc bored out 2CV 2 cylinder air cooled engine
          This one is probably in better condition than mine was by the time I scrapped it. Same colour and spec(library pic).


          Next was a 1982 Escort RS 1600 that I eventually blew up!(actual car)


          Then came a Fiat Strada 105TC, could not afford an Abarth at the time(library pic)



          Then for a short period a Cavalier Sri(library pic)



          Next came the 1987 Citroen BX 16RE, which I also blew up!(library pic)


          Then a 1986 Escort van :confusedlibrary pic)


          1997 Citroen Xantia 1.9td SX(library pic)


          2001 Citroen C5 2.0HDI, not the prettiest car ever made, but very comfortable(library pic)


          2006 Citroen C4 1.6HDI Cool(actual car, sale advert after I p/x it)


          And now I have the best of the lot

            Funnily enough my brother and I were discussing on the way back from Oulton Park, our dream garages with a Euromillions win and as well as the usual super/hyper car fantasies, we both said old Fords consisting of a 3dr RS500 Cosworth, Mk 2 RS2000 Escort and a Mk 3 RS1600i Escort.

              My car history isn't anywhere near as interesting as everyone elses! My first car was a 2004 Ford Ka, purchased just after I graduated from uni in 2008.


              She was a tin can on wheels, and was like driving a go kart! Loved her. And the interior was pretty cool:


              I had her for just over three years when I replaced her with a brand new Peugeot 207, after work had relocated us and my drive to work was 10x further than it used to be. It was a nice little car but SO boring to drive cos it was so sluggish.


              I had the Pug for just over two years, and then went to look at cars to narrow down my list for when I replaced it, found my DS3, got a good deal and changed it 9 months early. Best thing I've bought this year!

                I can't believe the Metro GTi was as fast as a Renault 5 Turbo, my mate had the latter when we were 20 and it was stupidly fast and you always felt like the speed would rip the panels off

                    First car was a 2000 1.1 Saxo Desire that I stuck a huge twin pipe backbox, induction kit and alloys to. Had that from 2003-2008



                    Next was a 2008 C2 Code that stayed totally standard. Absolutely loved that car and I still miss it. I think it's a great looking car and I personally think it handled better than the DS3.



                    The C2 went in 2011 for my DS3 THP that I've got now.
