Re: What's the best car you have owned before the b8
I had a Saphire Cosworth when I was 21 back in 95. Was a crap car, but got me laid way more than any RS4 ever has (even though I've been married since before having my first RS
)
Being serious though, there's very little I miss about my old B7. That's not detracting from them, but I much prefer the B8 for what I use it for and how I drive (normally badly)
Probably the car I had the most driving fun in was a TVR Chimaera I had years back. Was super unpredictable, made a lovely noise and used to scare the crap out of me every time I drove it. I used to get back from a sunday morning blast glad I survived

Re: What's the best car you have owned before the b8
Loved my TVR T350 the most craziest thing I have driven, but the care needed to drive and own one was just not practical with a young family so it had to goGraeme4130 wrote:I had a Saphire Cosworth when I was 21 back in 95.

Re: What's the best car you have owned before the b8
Loved my first car, Escort GTi. For an 18 year old it was fast and cool, especially when everyone else had a fiesta.
But the car i miss the most is my merc, only an E350 petrol, but head turner.

Re: What's the best car you have owned before the b8
I loved my 106gti when I was 21. I know that sounds very 'chav', but it was a great car. Small, light & nimble. I also had a MkIV Golf R32, that made a stunning sound, especially when I stuck a Milltek on it. I ended up having three of those cars in a row.
A few years back I also had a 335d Coup, that had more torque than pretty much anything else I'd driven, but I guess as an all rounder, the RS4 is my best to date to be honest.

It's all torque talk.
Re: What's the best car you have owned before the b8
Don't worry Smudge, I'm going to join the Chav ranks aswell. My Clio 172 was brilliant car especially as it came with Michelin PS as standard. The Integra Type R that followed it was also epic.
My Subaru STI Type UK and Evo 7 were also great aswell but the Clio was alot more fun.

Seat leon fr my second car and the longest i have ever owned a car 3 and half years
Re: What's the best car you have owned before the b8
I used to have a Chimera 450 and had a brilliant time with it. I then traded it up for a Tamora only for some drugged up, uninsured kid to drive in to it when I was driving home from a track day. The idiot child then attempted to drive away with the three remaining wheels on his car after the impact - I called the police and they eventually caught up with him.Graeme4130 wrote:I had a Saphire Cosworth when I was 21 back in 95.

Since then I have been a bit gun shy about having nice car. Keep half thinking about another Chimera but have sniffed ever closer to the Caymen GT4. I tried to give a deposit on one but Porsche wouldn't take it as all cars are now allocated.
