What did you drive before you joined the LEON stable?

used to like my fords but after the trouble i had with the focus and service from the dealers i decided to look elsewhere. My dads been more than happy with his alhambra (to the point of finaly replacing it with an 06 model) so i thought there must be somthing in it and bought my fr

im still to pick my Leon FR up but this is what im trading in for it

its a 2004 Zafira GSi with a few modifications, it was running around 218bhp butu with only 23/25mpg average its got to go

i will miss her but the fuel economy will be alot better

Errr....not in the Leon stable and probably never will be

Currently mooching around in an Ed30

Before that I've had a series of VAG cars

Last car was a Golf GTTDI 140 DSG.

20 years driving - lost count lol but memorable ones were -
Mk2 Escort, Mk1 Golf GTI Campaign, Mk2 Golf GTI 8v, Hillman Imp (rally prepped), MGBGT, Fiesta Mk1 Supersport, Metro GTI (memorable cos it didnt crash very well), Audi 80 Sport, Cavalier SRI, Vectra SRI, BMW 528i, BMW 1602, Alhambra, Altea, Alfa 147 . . . then there were (are) the bikes - another story altogether
My FR is the only even nearly new car I have ever owned and big dough for me but so far worth every penny

Wish I had it now, would be worth a few quid it was mint, right from the bulge in the rear panel to the proper tartan seats and square headlights. somebody stop me

1998 Renault clio (black)
2007 Renault clio (blue)

Really easy and nice to drive in large cities..parking etc, massive bump a whole 4 months since any1 viewed this thread but hey it's a good one.

List as long as your arm, but the car I traded in was a Renault Megane 1.9 DCi Dynamique!!!
And 'Twas starting to fall apart, Arnold Clarks problem now though

305BHP Subaru Impreza STI PPP

Chippo

In my just over six years of driving I had:

A 1994 Renault Clio 1.9 Diesel (bebop limited edition ohh yeah), no power but I loved that car. It just wanted to take you anywhere you wanted to go, that is until I tried biodiesel in it one day.

Then for a year or so a 2000 Renault Clio Alize 1.4 16v, engine was brilliant, but sooo unreliable.

Then back in May '08 got my candy white FR Tdi

Random info ( possibly has nothing to do with anything..) :

My sister has had ..4 cars and she's still 17 with a uk provisional license.
After her corsa,micra and 2nd renault clio I shall attempt to make her get an Ibiza and then demand she joins this forum..

Now got a mk1 cupra and a mk2 leon fr tdi (missus car)

I did have a mitsubishi colt cyborg (172 bhp standard from a 1.6 16v rare as!!) and never had to spend a penny on it other than modifying .
The missus had a new beetle with a red glitter paint job and cream leather (looked smart for a girl but had a 2.0l 8v engine and was slow as hell as weighed about 8 tonnes lol)

There's brand new 09 saab 93's going for 14k, bearing in mind these models are usually 26k i would say thats a good deal, few garages ordered them before Saab got into trouble and they are desperate to get rid of them now.

Erm, Car 1 was a 'MG' Maestro, first car so it was great!!
Car 2 was a Citroen AX GT, great fun and only 85 bhp!!
Car 3 was a Citroen Saxo VTS, great car, remember an Astra Gsi trying it on, ta'ra a bit Astra!!
Car 4, and the one I traded in for the Leon was a Renault Clio 182. Very quick, great handling but almost five years old and needed about a grands worth of work to sort out.

Sheesh, where to begin

1) 1993 Rover 414 - written off
2) 2004 Fiat Punto 1.2 8v - traded in for
3) 2003 Seat Ibiza Sport PD130 - traded for
4) 2004 Seat Leon Cupra R - traded for
5) 2002 Porsche Boxster 3.2 S - the Summer car

At the same time also owned

6) 1993 Mk2 Golf 1.8 driver - sold on after the summer
7) 1985 Mk1 Golf Gti Cabriolet - still owned - the 'project' car
8) 1989 Audi Coupe 2.2 E - just flogged on Ebay
9) 2001 Perodua Nippa - city car, owned by me driven by the missus - sold to my mother

And picked up two weekends ago...

10) Seat Leon Mk2 1.9TDi Ecomotive.

So currently only owning the 3 cars - had 5 at one point...crazy...

1st 106 1.6
2nd 206 1.9d - I could have walked quicker!
3rd 206 GTi - had an incident with a deer
4th 206 GTi 180 got boring quickly

I've also been using company cars:
BMW 318
Audi A3
VW Golf

Now i have my Cupra K1


I have now decided that i hate Peugeots after driving my cupra, i think they may be made of cheese.

had a new clio and then 2 boras, a raven blue one and a black one!

1- a old mini mayfair 1.0L automatic... oh i do miss it.. lol
2- a 1.4 16v mk4 ibiza
3- now a leon mk2
