8) is there a car you wish you had never sold.?? i had a nice tally pick up a couple of years ago . wish i had kept that.....years ago when some of you were a dirty thought i had a mk1 consul pga738.these are worth a few quid now.it was black and had whitewall tyres. i remember buying whitewall chalk and you rubbed it over the tyre size and make.590 by 13s they were.........reminiscing again.....larry

..You know which one i`m going to say before i say it.... the ST Coupe of course, that i sold to Phil Welland, still at least i`m happy in the knowledge that he will take care of her, all too often you sell a much loved car, only to find that the pillock you sold it to has smashed it up or sold it, or even worse ...scrapped it! :roll:

Um probs my old Mk1 Saloon That Stuart Divine now has and the Mk3 estate I owned then sold then owned then sold again.. And no I'm not selling SLK!

Ive scrapped so many cars over the years for bits and pieces that ive lost count , including j regs and even tcs and a jubilee But then i dont suppose any of us thought they would get as rare as they have ??

So it was you!!!!! Hethen!!!

MY MK5 Ford Cortina Crusader 2L in flame red , loved the old Girl

my white rs turbo convertible & certainly my white calibra turbo, F##k was that fast !!!

My 7.2 litre 440ci four barrel Plymouth Fury.......





Bought this one about 3 years ago. I thought it was cool to the point of the ridiculous.... my wife however just thought it was plain ridiculous. I guess I should have consulted her before I bought it. I guess "Do whatever the f@@k you want" means something different than what I thought.

Aye the female breed are strange creatures indeed. My wife says that word to me everyday – so I now just do as I please………….until I get caught

I really wish I still had this one!! Especially with the prices of muscle cars going through the roof. It had a big 440 and automatic.

Wish i hadn't sold my GT years ago it was the only one I have ever seen in orange and was really smart also my MK2 estate now that was practical !

NCA 908T

My first car.....

A 9 year old MK4 Cortina 2.0S in Venetian red/black vinyl roof.

Most of the guy's in the village had MK2/3 escorts, 1300 Dolomites and the odd 1300 Marina coupe...!

Killed it and bought a Dolly Sprint, killed that and bought an Ascona... :twisted:

Thankfully I have more mechanical sympathy these days!

Hmm, not that i really consider myself old enough to comment on this topic, (no offence guys) but it would have to be my 1968 Beetle.

I know i've heard it all before how crap they are but it was my first car. Bought it when i was 15 or 16, stripped it, spent loads on it (paper round money etc etc) then along came a girlfriend and going to pubs etc and it just ended up sitting on the drive till last summer. Anyhow i sold it for a horrendous loss (that'll teach me) but looking on the dvla site it appears the bloke i sold it to has got it back on the road so thats great to see 8)

My Rover 827 Sli, brilliant car, I'm going to have another one day
