96 N15 Pulsar
98 EL Excab 89 Civic hatch 85 E30 323i 92 N14 Pulsar 93 EB Excab 84 Astra 93 Calibra 92 Swift 3cyl 97 Excel 92 Lancer 90 300ZX twin turbo 5spd 97 Swift GTI turbo 93 Galant 93 Pajero 92 N14 Pulsar 95 N15 Pulsar + shared a 2000 WRX for a couple months. I'm sure I've missed some and mixed around order etc. Current toy: 03 WRX STi Current get around: 96 EL Fairmont dual fuel And all that is only in about 4 years lol. I've been a Subaru fan all along though, but was too scared to buy a beat up one knowing their gearbox's are made of glass! (5spd WRXs at least, 6spds are unbreakable) Ideally I want to replace my 03 with and 06/07 STi, and replace the EL with a BA E-gas. |

1990 Toyolden Nova - copped an absolute floggin and spent 2 weeks with no oil or coolant but never even slowed down.
1996 Mitsubishi Lancer - put a huge carbie and massive exhaust, big tyres and other stuff, fastest NA lancer on the street, but slow as hell. 1989 Ford Laser 3spd auto - a more rubbish car has not yet been built 1994 ED XR8 - off the road at the moment getting a gearbox and some other stuff, whilst waiting I have had: 2001 AU wagon 1977 HX Premier (P.O.S.!) I want my Falcon back.

^^^^ Ah yes, the purple Torana. Nice car back then. 2850cc? I still see a brown one (71 model I think - blinkers in middle rather than outside) getting around my area. I think your 2000 Commodore would be a VTII. I had one of those and a VY (2004) too. No SLR5000 in your list?

1st: 1979 Ford Escort 4door. Ice blue & stock. 1.6L I think. 4speed manual. Dad bought it for $300, stuck pink carpet to the dash (I don't know why) & even had it registered! He gave it to me after 6 months of my sister stuffing around, not collecting it from his place & the dog sleeping in it.
2nd: 1986 XF Falcon S wagon. 5speed manual. Powder blue. Nissan Patrol leaf spring. Stupid, but I could sleep in it. 3rd: 1984 Suzuki 800Hatch. 5speed manual. Silver with dumb green detail carried out by the old bugger I bought it from - great mechanic, terrible painter, but he had the seats trimmed properly in dark grey. 4th: 1987 Daihatsu Charade 5 door hatch. Gold. Brown interior. I miss the way the rear seat folded  5th: 1992 KH Laser sportback/fastback/whatever you like to call it. Ice Blue. 1.6L. 5speed Manual. Basic as can be - not even EFI, but it was the best, most reliable car in existence. Everything was cheap to fix or replace & it had a pretty damn good boot. 6th: 1991 Nissan Pintara (front wheel drive) sedan. Red. 2L I4. Auto. I put the seats from the Laser in it. Went through 2 gearboxes AND two brake master cylenders within 4 months. If it had a better engine & gearbox it would have been great. Couldn't give the hing away in the end. 7th: 1991 TR Mitsubishi Magna Sedan. 4 cylender. Auto. White with blue interior. Nicknamed 'Parkinson' due to a serious case of the shakes. Possibly the worst car ever. Anything that could go wrong did. It proved to me that it IS possible to stall an auto. 8th, current & probably last: 2007 WQ Ford Fiesta LX 5door. 1.6L I4. Manual. Ice White. Generic but not entirely unattractive seat covers in the front, CocaCola towel on the back seat & my son's booster are the closest thing to "mods". We only got her because the Magna & the Pintara had cost us so much, we figured it couldn't be worse. Named her KIMMI. potential 9th (if we can ever afford it): Mitsubishi 380 or Mazda BT-50 dualcab. But we'll always have KIMMI. ;) |
