Robs cars from recent times.
Was trawaling through my photobucket account, and thought I would share just a few cars I've owned in recent years. Many, many more prior to these including cosworths, 964, and BMW's, and some very boring and plain cars inbetween as stop gaps as well.
A little scary when I think this little lot are all fairly recent ones. Must calm down a bit. :D Scoob number 3 I think http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0151.jpg MX5 turbo number 1. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v404/RobEvo5/3.jpg BMW 330 sport http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0004.jpg Scoob Number 5 I think http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0040.jpg Scoob 4 number 4 I think http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v404/RobEvo5/uk5.jpg BMW M3 number 2 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4.../M3Frontos.jpg Scoob number 6 with 2.5 and 20G miss this one should have kept it. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...vo5/Email4.jpg MR2 N/A - Slow http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/59ba7fde.jpg VX220 Turbo - Huge fun and quick with Stage 2. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0058.jpg BMw 328I great car for what they are and cost. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0078-2.jpg RX7 - Mental quick and handful. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0147.jpg BMW 528I - Motoryway muncher http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0084-1.jpg Vectra GSI - Superb car and better than the ST220 IMO. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/Backside.jpg Scoob 7 or 8 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0008.jpg Evo 7 with lots of extras cosmetically and under the bonnet. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v404/RobEvo5/pic1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v404/RobEvo5/pic2.jpg Laguna 3.0 V6 in between car - Horrid car http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...o5/laguna2.jpg Saab 93 Aero Hot number 2 - Superb Cars http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0021-1.jpg Mr2 Turbo - Love these cars and still do, but this one http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...vo5/ab48_1.jpg Saab 93 Aero Hot number 1 with stage 1 and 240bhp. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0022-3.jpg MX5 turbo - running 240bhp.

I knew it would be a long list :doubleup:
That is one hell of a list of cars mate. So....... the million dollar question.... Which one was your fave! |
No pics showing mate :whistle:
|
Thats a lot cars.
Where is a your car lot??:lol::lol: |
pics now working :D
As for which was best.... Well they are all very good cars in there own particular right. Whilst I was well into my fords at the time, they are just now old rusty out of date cars IMO, so don't have the love for fords that allot still seem to have. With cossies fetching top money still. Scoobs still have a place in my heart, but only disslike about them is the stigmatism that comes with them, and get a little tired of all the chavs on my bumper. But pound for pound scoobs just can't be beat, and recent snow has reafirmed this. The 2.5 Classic and the STI8 were the best of the bunch. Hence serious consideration is being given to a hawekeye STI at the moment. |
quite a list! i'm 28 and only on my 3rd car! (seem to keep them for 3-4 years)
|
Quite a collection you have had
|
What a cracking selection :doubleup:
|
LOL...thats only 1/4 of em'.
Everyone of them (apart from maybe the Laguna) where the best thing since sliced bread according to Rob....for at least 24 hours....or until the fuel light came on (whichever came first). |

It was only at that point that I gave him the key's back...the condition must be contageous. |
Oi! I'll have you know I have filed up my current wagon at least 3 times now. ;)
But your probably right, that list is probably just 1/4 of them. Post Ford days, I have had about 4 or 5 MR2's, about 4 or 5 E36 M3's. Countless Scoobs, and lots of fairly plain stuff in between that little list above. Ironically its always the cheapest motors I tend to hang onto the longest. And had my wagon since November now, and its not even for sale....... Yet... Question is if you had a budget of 1K- 30K and you had a history of cars as above and ideally wanted something that the complete family can get into at times, 3 kids, what should I get ?. I like a quick car, but it doesn't need to be balistic quick these days, I'm 38 coming up 39, and Director of a company so I should grow up a little and get something decent and all round nice, and something I can take to business meets. Tried the 2 car thing and it don't work for me... Newer Shape Audi RS4 ?, BMW335 ?, or perhaps a Hawkeye STI for less at around 15K. Or just be done with it and get a brand new car which is something I have yet to try (what was that car James May test drove ?. Loved that) |

Dont regret any of them. All been great cars, and variety is the spice of life. The missus is just glad I don't change my women as much as I do cars :D.
Just remebered the car on Top Gear I liked Vauxhall insignia VXR. Must get up close and personally to one if I can find one in a local showroom. |

If your gonnagofor one of barge's would be better to look at the Monaro or the Supercharged Ford Falcon. |
Looked a small to medium car hence the appeal and not to lary but still agressive and 4wd.
Found a few more motors i've owned; lol http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...esorted085.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...esorted089.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/scoobyuk.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DCP00237.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0098.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/DSCF0094.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0040-2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0038-2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...DSCF0035-2.jpg |
An insignia is 'NOT' small to 'medium'...it's 'Huge'.
They have a Blue VXRin the showroom at the moment. It's the replacement for the Vectra and as with every new car replacement they get bigger every time. |
Anybody else noticed the consistently bad parking! :whistle:

I think he must use the same glasses when parking as he does when viewing some of his past choices.
