Cool thread this and some nice motors posted above.
My journey began with this bad boy. Not much done to it as it was my first car and insurance on a 1.6 was harsh. Kept to rims and ice....
Next up was the starbo, 1.3 Turbo with a fair few mods and completely stripped out inside. Ran about 180bhp and weighed next to nothing...
MR2 turbo followed, this had a fair bit done to it as well and imo looked the nuts...
Then it was scoob no.1 (although not technically a previous as I still have it!)...
And alongside scoob no.2 I have this as my daily hack. Not (yet) modded and not a previous either but a good little fun motor...
