2001 Nissan 200sx ph2
2001 Mondeo 2.5 V6 Ghia
2002 Nissan 200sx ph1
2002 Nissan 300zx TT (Briefly had a Sierra 1.8 while this was off the road one winter having some work done!)
2004 Mondeo ST200
2004 BMW E36 M3
2005 VW Golf GTI Mk2 & Citreon Saxo VTS
2006 Peugeot 306 XSI and Peugeot 306 S16 track car

2012 Rover MG ZS 180 mk2 with Porsche 996 911
2012 Mercedes CLK 320 W208 with Porsche 996 911
2013 Mercedes CLK 55 AMG W209 with CLK 320 W208
2015 Mercedes CLK 55 AMG w209 with 1200 bandit?

I've probably missed a few bikes and cars but that's what I can remember right now starting from my Seat Ibiza when I first learnt to drive, in fact I had that car when I was 15 :) Had that little lot and I am 35, longest running cars were my first Renult 21 at 17, I loved that car, it seemed to have the acceleration of a space rocket for a 17 year old! Had that for a couple of years. I loved my ph2 21 turbo too, very memorable car. Next favorite was probably the 300zx, I had that for a whiles, loved it to bits. The porsche was nice although I spent far too much money on it. Of course I love my CLK now :)

The wife has had:

Mini Mayfair 900cc Auto
Rover Metro GTI (or was it called a GTA I can't remember)
Ford escort XR3i convertible
Honda Accord 2.0
Peugeot 106 (forget model)
Peugeot 306 2.0 S16
Peugeot 306 2.0 XSI
Peugeot 206 (forget model)
BMW Mini Cooper 1.6
Abarth 500 1.4 turbo

Very nice! Love that MG collection!
