I thinks that's it, can't really remember anymore. Tried to start out in order of purchase but that was out of the question for my memory. Some of the favorites were the 91' Trooper on 29" Swampers, all the 944's (Love those cars, still have the 89'), the Cougar with a stroked 302 (337ci) and 175 shot of NOS as well as many other mods, heck I've loved just about every car I've owed.

Well here we go... short and sweet!

1. '84 Seat Marbella (like a FIAT panada but the cheaper Spanish version!). (ex wife's car, great in the snow, even after being burried up to the roof regularly, only the throttle cable needed de-icing... We even moved house in it! (I took out all but the drivers seat to fit every thing in!)

2. '86 Nissan Cherry. (bought from ex-wifes uncle, ran like a tank, but the rust got the body work. I had to give it away to a friends brother who ran a body shop so he could do it up for his wife! He felt sorry for me and gave me 10 quid for the petrol in the tank!)

3. '88 Toyota Corolla Escape 4x4. My first 4x4, wicked in the snow and ultra reliable, but the rust got to it in the end as well... sold it to an English family for their return trips from the chalet in Les Gets to Geneva airport.

4. '99 Subaru Impreza 1.6 GL. My first Subaru, 'the little one' as my local garage called it (he's a rally driver...). I recently drove one again while the Forester was being serviced, loved every minute of it.

5. '01 Subaru Forester S-turbo. Current ride. Smile guaranteed!

'73 Chevy Malibu SS, 8 cyl
'78 Jeep Cherokee S, 8 cyl
'78 Chevy Malibu, 8 cyl
'83 Jeep Cherokee Laredo, 8 cyl
'83 Chevy Malibu, 6 cyl
'88 Chevy Celebrity, 6 cyl
'91 Buick Skylark, 6 cyl
'03 Subaru Forester XS, 4 cyl

Most fun: '78 Jeep Cherokee

Best memory: Blowing the motor of the '73 Malibu SS on the GSP. A rod cap loosened up and rotated. The rod cap then hit the main bearing cap and the flying parts exited out the the side of the oil pan. Yee-haw.... You'd think I was spraying for mosquitoes. I watched the oil pressure guage (mechanical) float around 60psi for a second or two, then it headed for 0. Killed the key and headed for the shoulder. Too late. Block was not repairable.

Currently on the prowl for a Legacy.....
