dixyman: That's a lot of crashed cars in a very short history. You've either been very unlucky or you seriously need to adjust your driving. You can understand if people start to jump to conclusions with that list can't you!?!
In chronological order from newest to oldest:
Ford fiesta 1.25 zetec
Honda civic type r EP3
Honda prelude 2.2 vetec
VW scirocco mk3 2l tfsi (blue finned)
Renault Clio 197 cup
Honda integra type r DC5
Honda civic type r EP3
Mitsubishi FTO GPX MIVEC
Soooo you can understand why I got rid of the fiesta!!!

I thought the Vw was the odd one out not the fiesta. All the rest have crap build quality lol
Likewise, the 2 i've been in were petrol. I can accept my Leon diesel engine been a bit rattley. . .

Passat R36, Vectra GSI, Mondeo, Focus, Rover Sterling, Ordinary Passat, VW Jetta, there are many more including a 740i but not in any order.
My 10reg 170++++++ tdi Leon is for sale on the Autotrader website because it is too small for me

I'll be dropping of my Skoda Octavia TDI (130bhp PD) on the 1st of March to pickup my Leon.
Bought the car new in 2004, done 145,000 miles over the years and apart from pads, discs and tyres the only thing to go wrong was the clutch at 135,000 miles.
I've loved the car and it has done itself proud carrying me and my lead foot around the country.
Upgrading to something nicer to be in.
Before that I had a Citroen ZX for 3 years (yawn!!!) and my favourite car so far - Lancia Delta HF Turbo (approx 155bhp with airfilter, exhaust and other bits), I'm hoping my Leon will give me the same pleasure.

The integral was a 2.0 Turbo with 4wd that was 200bhp as standard.
The hf Turbo was a 1.6 Turbo and only fwd. Stock was 140bhp. It was the Italian version of the escort rs Turbo.
I'll own a good integral one day, if only for a month or 2.
