Been a while since ive been on here!!! Just wondering what paths people have taken car wise. I think its quite random at times so be good to see!
Mine:
after a first car Citroen ax and a first corsasport, both ended up in a scrap yard for similar reasons!
then it had to get all sensible/cheap/runaround for a couple of years whilst the mortgage kicked in!
Now ive ended up with one of these:
(not my actual car as no pics yet, but same)
Still bit more sensible as i would like but mortgage still hurts!
So whats everyone elses car journey?

Sold it to Warren G, drove it home the day before he was picking it up and the diff fell out the gearbox.
Gave him his money back, intended to fix/strip it but left jam s port and then the engine ended up
a standard looking fiesta RS turbo, wheels went on to an escort turbo track car and the brakes have gone AWOL, all without my consent.
