Title: What car did you own that you miss the most?
Post by: Running Man on 02 June 2016, 18:00
Too many for me, though to pick just the one  :grin:

My first ever hot hatch - Ford Fiesta Mk2 XR2 in Mercury Grey (E160 HOO)

I would pay a tidy sum to have that back  :cry:

If you know of this car it will always be welcome with me, a good price will be paid for its return.

N o mot since April 2010 - showing as SORN but thta was back when you didnt have to renew, so guessing it could be gone but not scrapped off on the DVLA system sadly.

I thought you had to renew each year ever since they introduced sorn, so the dvla would know if cars didn't exist anymore.

not when the first introduced it,  recent sorns have an expiry date, old original ones dont  :wink:

My metallic black 1990 16v Golf GTi, really miss that car, it created an entire era for me.

Also, my red 1998 Escort GTi, I hate red cars, really despise the colour, but it was a cracking car.

'69 Cooper 'S' in white with red stripes, thrashed it into the ground while it ate a set of Perrelli's in 1,800 miles, very nearly wrote myself off with it. :whistle:

Followed by a white E type coupe with red leather, super eye turner and the best bird 'puller' ever, until it was nicked never to be seen again. :cry:
Up the Kings Road on a Saturday with Besty, Ozzie and all the rest, those REALLY were the days!! :smug:

My 1973 Capri 3000GT. It was a bit knackered and if I had it back I'd want it already restored but it was a great car... TUR515M, daytona yellow with a black vinyl roof and upgraded headlights to GXL/RS spec.
