Ex GPO minivan ( painted it- with emulsion- washed off when it rained)
Mini
Triumph Vitesse
Several Cortinas/estates
Talbot Alpine
Granadas mostly 2 litres, one Cosworth 2.9
Senator 24v
Rover 800 Vitesse 2.7
Various Mondeos, Passats and Cavaliers
More recently
2 Skoda Kodiaqs ( great car)
Just changed to Skoda Enyaq iv 80 ( getting used to it)
That spans just under 60 years. Every car marks a period in my life.
Anyone else's motoring history?
