Capri 3.0s - wrote that off

Spot the owner's age?

My first was a FIAT 600, already 10 years old, 1909 DH. It had four cylinders you know, there's posh,, none of them any good, water cooled as well; I know cos I had to carry a flask of ice to top it up on every trip. My second was a brand new NSU prinz.

(Does anyone recall what NSU stood or stands for and what became of them? None Specific Urethritis may be one, but not the right one. I know what I declared it to be)

Vauxhall Viva Estate (HC series) – appalling car that my uncle gave to my father, and my father sold to me for £100
Ford Cortina XL – rust bucket that I bought for £300
Ford Escort 1.4 – first company car; so lovely and clean!
Ford Escort RS Turbo – jet black boy racer gear; new front tyres once a month
BMW 325i – didn't like wet roundabouts
Nissan 200SX – suggested by my girlfriend (now wife) lovely car (lovely wife), would like to have one now (still got the wife)
Ford Escort XR3i – sh!t
Audi A4 – dull
Vauxhall Carlton – I think it was a GSi2000 16v 4x4 with two big square exhaust pipes (one fake) – brutal but effective
Rover 800 Vitesse Fastbackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMESnHBpMkc
Subaru Imprezza Turbo – one of the first (1995) Prodrive cars; tinny but wonderful
Volvo V70 T5 R – fast bronzy-orange monster, but unable to get the power down through the front wheels
Audi A4 - dull (Did I really have two of these? I can't remember)
Audi A8 3.7 – lovely car but lots of problems; quoted £6,000 for a new gearbox
Jaguar X-Type 3.0 AWD saloon – comfortable, quick, dull, but did the job
Jaguar X-Type 3.0 AWD estate – so I bought another one
Maserati Quattroporte
the end
