Renault 9 TLE
Vauxhall Astra EXP
Vauxhall Nova 1.3
Vauxhall Astra 1.3 GLE
Vauxhall Nova 1.4
Vauxhall Astra 1.4 Hi Torq
Toyota Corolla GS
Rover 220 GTi
Audi A3 1.8T Sport
My seminal life changing purchase was actually the 1.3 Nova, it was quick and handled really well and showed me that cars can really be fun. My first project was the 220GTi which was beautiful to drive, just so darned unreliable.
My best car is the A3, it is just so well behaved on the road and has a nice smooth power delivery.
