Should have held on to this:

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v627/diamondhell/P7140002LR.jpg)

Which is still owned by the bird who bought from me, who lives in central Bristol.

(http://www.syncronauts.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/firstattemptatgully-300x224.jpg)

Still almost wish I hadn't unloaded my T25 Syncro Doublecab.  I started a UK-wide club with that vehicle. 

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v627/diamondhell/P7140001lr.jpg)

Oh no, hang on - I still own that after about seven years.  :grin:

From everyone?

Green bus: My Subaru conversion was set up and to do it I had to sell it.
Doka: It was on the Island and I was in Bristol and I wasn't using it.

Sometimes you just have to be grown up about things.

My first ever mk2, absolutely spotless 1.8 Driver with 45k
(http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm90/richierichie37/alsorts/mk2driverday1010.jpg)


There was my mk1 golf, stunning car but not practical or reliable enough for what I needed.
(http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3191/2935501527_bcd9918cfa_z.jpg)


And my mk2 Jetta, saved it from the scrappy off a friend, put an 8v gti engine in, then sold it when I moved away to Uni.

I keep seeing all of them on various VW forums and it makes me want them back!

BMW 316i Lux - In fairness I didn't want to sell it, has no choice after seeing some insurance quotes.  Was only 19 at the time.

I miss this:

Despite all the mods, it wasn't the most exciting car point to point, but it was seriously quick and a brilliant daily driver.


I wish I'd kept hold of this many moons ago:
