10 year challenge!

[Carlos]

no sports bike I had ridden (I rode dozens as I worked in a bike shop from 10-24)

Marty? Is that you?

My best mates family owned 2 local dealerships and it started out as us playing with things down there but ended up being the oldest Saturday boy in town lol.

My mate dropped dead on his 31st birthday 12 yrs ago which has probably contributed to my loss of interest

Impreza Turbo 2000 - UK edition

to

Volvo V70 diesel

In between I had a volvo V40 and a Saab 9-3 Sportwagon

Now looking at newer V70's, Passat estates and Skoda Superb estates - also considering a Mondeo estate with the funky LED adaptive headlights

[240PP]

2010: Diesel Mondeo and Elise S2

2020: A5 Coupe 3.0 TDI and 987 S

[Orange Cola]

2010: Iveco as the work van and the BMW 535d, plus a Daihatsu 4x4

2020: Ford Mustang 5.0l convertible, Jaguar F-Pace and still got the Daihatsu (although it's actually a different one because the engine went pop after 3 weeks and the dealer bought it back! I bought another for a bit more money, better spec, newer and half the miles)

How do you rate the Mustang? I’m seriously considering a coupe this year.

[Beany]

I didn't have a car ten years ago (got the Micra in 2011)

Going from a Micra to a 330 in ten years seems ok though.

Depends on the spec and shape (pre facelift or facelift), plus what you’re after really. I’ve always wanted a Mustang and can therefore accept some of the quirks with a ‘mid-Atlantic’ car (it’s a massive step away from American car build quality and it’s edging closer to European car quality with each model year).

I don’t mind doing a fairly long post if you want me too, I’ve got a fair bit of experience with them based on the dealership fiasco with mine.

Probably a pre-facelift 2016 car, 5.0 GT manual. To be used as a daily. Long post, s’il vous plait.

I'll type one out and stick it in the cars section so it doesn't clutter this thread up

[JonMad]

Then: Fiesta Titanium TDi company car and a stripped out CLK55 AMG.

Now: RenaultSport Megane 250 Cup and a stripped out Skoda Fabia.

Right, at the start of 2010 I *think* I had an E39 530i Touring, an E36 323i Touring, and a SIII SWB Landie. Wifey had an E87 118d.

At the start of 2020 we’ve got this lot, plus an F01 740d.
