    Previous:
    1983 Polo CL
    1991 Polo GT Coupe

    and been custodian to:
    1987 Celica GT 16v (Gen4)

    Right now
    1997 Civic VTi 5dr
    1998 Celica GT (Gen 6)

    Only got 1 35mm pic of the CL which is a shame since it was superb. My GT was also pre-digicam but I'm sure I can find pix of the Civic and Celicas somewhere later

    Looking for my car number four atm.

    That'l be your right foot being none-too-subtle... recent Vectra's handle really well, and only need to be learned. I consider the turn-in to be quite sharp... actualy too sharp for my liking, and no really drift-wide unless you dial in too much steering. Vauxhalls ALL corners, of coaxed properly

    Vectra VXR vs Mustang, across the Yorkshire Moors in the rain.... That Stang would be no where close.

    Mondeo's are fractionally better though.. but a good driver in both would be very very similar performance.

    as for company veehickles,

    1997 Seat Inca van
    2001 Mini One
    2000 Mini One
    1998 Nissan Vannette Cargo
    and currently 2007 Fiat Scudo Maxi (velly nice vannage)

    I've only outright owned two cars myself:

    VW Golf GTI mkII
    and
    Vauxhall Astra mkIV 1.7dti

    but then, I am fabulously endowed in the trouser department
