I have owned 3 MINI's (BMW type) and the last one, a MINI John Cooper Works S model (the supercharged one) has still been the best drivers car I've owned! I could keep up with anything in that car! Actually regret not keeping it!!

The best car i've owned is my old Evo 9 GT, mainly because it was utterly insane! When i bought it back in 2011 it was a bit shabby around the edges and needed a lot of TLC, so I stripped the thing down and started again. The spec list was over 4 pages, but mainly it was 650bhp, 590lbfit, K sport brakes all round, carbon roof, fully polybushed and autronics ECU, it was FAST!!

I'd like to have seen that in the flesh :thumbsup: :evil:
 
Wow that evo looks like pure awesome insanity! Bet you had some fun with that...would like to drive/own one but I'd be too concerned I wouldn't be able to restrain myself!
 
Overall- My 1998 E36 328is in Cosmos Black with silver leather back in 2000 when I was 20. Beautiful car and fantastic to rag!

Similar car although mine had no spoiler.....

Solely on looks- probably my current 2012 TT-Sline. Turns heads everywhere it goes......

Lol well me Mr Practical has a slightly less interesting history...

Running my own business I needed space and reliability.

First car at 19 second year of uni, 8 month old ex demo focus

Written off courtesy of ice and a large 4x4...

Replaced at 21 with... yep a 6 month old ex demo focus albeit this time with all the extras like sports pack, bluetooth and voice activated controls (officially the most pointless extra I've ever had on a car).

Then at 24, having sold the business I got the zed 8)

Ok a ford focus isn't exciting, but as a student a car which never needed anything more than its cheap service and MOT (and was covered by warrenty due to age anyway - is kinda useful!

I think the first car you own has a special place in your heart, I was so lucky to have this at 18 and oh my it was fabulous :D

Mine was a 1970 Glaicer white one. (square wheel arch) 1275.
