It was AWFUL, but I had a lot of fun thrashing around country roads at 4am with a couple of mates following, pretending to be Tommi Makinen and Richard Burns
Phase 2 Miami (pov spec) 1.4 in diablo.....79k, mot and tax....cost 1300 quid back in may 2009....the insurance on it was 1500 lol. Only mod I did was alloys and audio......will stick a pic up when I'm on the pc!
rover metro rio, paid 180 quid for her, she was well basic too 4 speed gear box and a manual choke. nippy little thing she was and one soild shell better than the gta i have now. i wish i had kept her now and vvcd it. when i showed me mate that i bought my 1st car we hooted about the tape deck in it lol, as for the price i paid for the car we didnt expect the car to have a radio tape deck. it worked aswell!! my mum put one of her old 90s tapes in to test it.
soon upgraded to a 12 disc changer that was worth more than the car.
fuckin hell thats was 9 years ago!
Long long story, but to cut it short i had the car for sale, silly me trusted someone to take it for a test drive, got a call saying it had broken down & they were towing it back, then got a call saying it was f*cked & they have left it on this road with the keys in it.. bye.. i found it like this:
lesson learnt..
why the fook tow it by the slam panel i'll never know... lol
I had a couple of snotters before I passed my test but my first *proper* car was this
Bought it in 2006, standard for £1200 with 134k and 12 months mot! Owned it for 3 years and had other cars at the same time and stuff - miss it and wish I could have kept it forever! (Mind u I think that about all my cars haha)

JJ0063 your 106 was well tidy! i have seen a lot worse knocking about sunderland! the laugh is now you dont see these been done up any more or used as a 1st car.
i also walked into north east motor salvage with me mate. we had a look a round, i saw a few saxos and not one had standard rear lights in.
Ph1 Miami dturbo, this is my second one, but it looked exactly the same

It wasnt on the insurance database last week, I got a snotty PM from the lad on .net a few months back saying the HG had gone and turbo was shot, and that i'd sold him it like it (bearing in mind he drove it from Norwich to Wales like it, and had it for 2-3 months before moaning about it?!... I smell bullshit)
