I've never posted pictures of this.. mainly because i didnt think i had any.. but ive found some!

Anyway, some history behind it.. it was my sisters first.. she didnt look after it that well but o well! when i was 17 my parents bought her a brand new car and i was given my sisters old one. the corsa B 1.0L ( :shock: ).. well as you know i like detailing cars, the pictures below are some of my early results on my first car.. considering it was a 10 year old car the condition was pretty good dont you think?

Then after i saved all year working 2 / 3 different jobs i managed to save enough to sell the corsa and buy my 2nd corsa (58 plate corsa D, from new, 1.2L), ... i loved this car.. but it just was not quick enough.

So after 10 months of owning the corsa D i had got enough money together and some more from splitting the car back to standardish... to go and purchase my current car the Twingo RS 133

Haven't got pictures of all my old cars but i'll start with my history

1) renault 25 GTX 2.2, had it when i was 16 but too much money to put back on the road, went to scrappers :(
2) renault 19 16v Chammade, insured it after passing my test for 1800 quid! but after a few months was too expensive

3) Suzuki Swift GTi after a few months of modding and allot of money spent:

4) Suzuki Swift GTi mk2 ph1,

this bad boy was running serious n/a power!

5) After crashing the swift I owned a mk2 golf 8v GTi, it got nicked in southend one night when i was visiting the GF :( i bought myself another renault started life as a campus, when i bought it i put in a GTT engine within 2 weeks of buying it, however a mate of mine had crashed his clio valver so thought i'd modernise it with an F7P:

Whats in store for the future: well getting a mk3 golf vr6 for the daily hack and the twingos going to have a very special engine transpant, my aim after the twingo is done is to get a delorean by the time i'm 30 and i will probably mod that aswell!
