Lab 10,979 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Right here goes my history of cars........First i had the renault 5 gtx....a 1.7 shoebox...many a fine race in that car... Then i upgraded to a 'L' reg Fiat Uno Turbo, cracking car when folk thought they "Just nip past this old uno" and bye bye..... Then i got my first newer aged car, a Proton Satria GTI......great car look wise and awesome on corners..that was the Lotus Tuning...unfortunately the performance was shite... Then i got my baby....my Subaru Impreza STI Type UK.............absolutely cracking car and should never have parted....the most fun ever. Even some bikes had a hard time with that car on the back roads.... Put some pics on....none of them my cars and the Uno i had was white.... Oh and the car i always wanted when young was the Fiesta RS Turbo.....never got round to getting one......maybe one day... I know you just put up these pics to give an idea of what you have had, but that renault 5 is a phase one GT Turbo mate, Not a GTX. ........your right mate but its pretty much identical looks wise and the best i could find... A cracking wee buy for my first car....i nearly bought the Monaco version..they grey one with leather interior but snapped up a bargain on the GTX...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Heres another car that used to pass through our village when we were young......we just stood there as it flew past, dump valve exploding as it changed up...........ahhhhhhhhh heaven!!!.... THE FORD RS200... The Cosworths were my dream cars, I'd have had any one of them in a heartbeat. I used to love all the fast fords, but the ultimate was the Escort cossie for me.
