OK in order:

1) E reg red 1.0l Austin Metro - complete with my addition of silver side stripes and decals saying Flash on the back corners. I know, I know, but I was little at the time I knew no better!

2) L reg blue 1.1l Rover Metro - I had this all through uni and to be fair it wasn't a bad little car, considering the amount of hammer I gave it with the amount of miles it clocked up going between west Cumbria and Newcastle.

3) X reg red 1.25l Fiesta Zetec - although obviously not as good as my current Fez I found it a really great car to drive, if the ST hadn't come out I would probably still have it now.

4) My ! - no comment needed methinks

Too many to list all the previous cars before the ST as I had various company cars between 1988 and 2003. However this was the one immediately before the ST:



It was great fun and very fast (about 240bhp) but as an every day car taking into account comfort, handling, performance, running costs etc. I prefer the

I really like those old style Imprezas Freestyle. ST is nice but you must have been sad to see it go.

As for me here goes:
1. 1990 VW Polo 1.3 (new and slow)
2. 1989 VW Polo G40 (great engine but crap handling)
3. 1992 Clio 16V (new)
4. ???? Ford Capri 2.0 (sold it after 2 weeks)
5. 1988 Volvo 240 GL (not much fun)
6. 1989 Paugeot 309 GTI (very twitchy and fun)
7. 1987 VW Golf Syncro (endless gearbox problems)
8. 1991 VW Passat GL (great for just doing miles)
9. 1992 Clio 16V (still own this one)
10. 1992 Sierra Cosworth 4x4 (cam belt failure
11. 2005 Fiesta ST


Raffe I owned 2 Clio 16V's (still own one) and being very close to the Williams I couldn't agree more on the comments you made about it. Also what you were saying about the 205... I owned a 309 GTI and what you were saying about the handling was spot on, although the 309 with its longer wheelbase was IMO a little less twitchy - but they were so much fun!

My gf had a Clio 16V at the same time and I used to drive both cars all the time, there wasnt a huge amount of difference, the handling just wasnt quite as tight and it had slightly less torque..other than that a great car.

As for the 309, totally agree with you that the handling was better..totally awesome...just a shame it was the 205's ugly big brother
