My history since I was 17

92 Volvo 460- Tank! Had it for 4 months.
92 BMW 525i e34, easy to drift.
94 BMW 328i coupe E36.
02 Civic Type-R EP3, mapped at 222bhp by CPL, rolled it.
04 Civic Type-R EP3, mapped at 239bhp by Eurospec, sold it and found out it got written off about a year later, wish I still had it.
08 Impreza WRX GB270, nice car just wasn't as fun as I'd thought it would be.
04 Impreza STI UK, mapped at 370bhp, proper fun and proper loud! Another car I wish I still had.
02 Golf GT TDI 150, had it 4 weeks and gave it back as the chassis was bent!
07 Grande Punto 1.9 multijet sporting, my daily/work car.
99 Impreza Turbo 2000, was a nice untouched original example.

And now with my 03 DC5, had it just over 2 weeks now and wish I'd got one sooner, love it!

I've had dozens of cars but the one I miss the most is this



With coilovers and upgraded arbs it handled like it was on rails for such a bus

Really wish I'd kept it

Updated one for me, because I never put in any detail and I missed some out.

2004 Ford Fiesta 1.4 sold

2004 Civic Type R - wrote this off

2004 Civic Type R - sold this for the DC5

2001 Integra Type R DC5 - wrote this off

2000 Accord Type R - this was a lemon so sold it

1999 Integra Type R DC2 - should have never sold this, but it was a little rusty around the front after I spent a lot sorting the rear arches

2002 Civic Type R - I vowed never to have another, but I paid £4k for it, sold all the mods for around £4k and then the car for £3800

2000 Accord Type R - fantastic all round car, I do miss it sometimes and I must say, it's probably the best all round Type R that I've owned. I checked recently and it looks to have come off the road not long after I sold it which is a shame.

2006 Evo IX - always wanted an Evo and when the Army gave me £10k when I left I went out and bought one and did stage 1 mods on it. Loved the brutal power and all weather ability, but soon found out it had been in a prang previous to my ownership and at that point my love for it fell out of the window. So I sold it and bought the S2000 below. While I had it I was doing 400 miles a week which was stupid so I bought:

2003 Focus 1.8 diesel - great car for what it was, to keep miles off the Evo and actually good to drive. I ended up giving this to my ex girlfriend and she still has it.


2006 S2000 - loved this, spent a fortune on it and then put it in a hedge backwards. I'd absolutely have another.


2009 Audi A5 3.0 TDi - bought this after I gave the above Focus away. Lovely engine, lovely to look at, lovely interior and lovely sound system. That was it. The suspension was harsh, fuel economy no where near as good as you'd expect, slow gearbox, not very nice to drive overall. Sold it for a large loss for:

2009 Accord i-DTEC - lovely car and much nicer than the Audi. I really miss it but I was doing less miles at this point, with an impending clutch change due and DMF concerns I sold it.

2005 Focus 1.8 diesel - bought this as I was scared to drive the S2000 in the winter. With the mk1 being so good I bought a mk2. Initially its use was little, but then I ended 30000 miles in this in a year, never serviced it but things started to go wrong.

2006 Evo IX - the lack of straight line grunt in the S2000 saw me get another Evo, which I decided to take on a lot of track days. This cost me a lot of money so I ended up selling it to save some. It also felt a little boring on track.

2001 Integra Type R DC5 - my current car and the best car I've had on track. No plans to sell unless someone offers me a PX for a decent track ready E46 M3 which is unlikely to happen.

2016 BMW F10 530d LCI - the mileage in the Focus was becoming unbearable, and with no end to the hideous commute in sight I decided to get a 530d. Without a doubt the best all round car I've driven. Comfortable, would leave a standard DC5 wondering what's happened in a straight line. Loads of toys, great to drive. I could go on about this for days. Sadly for the car I was offered a job 4 miles from home so it had to go. I did 5000 miles in 2 months and probably the best road miles I've covered. I'd have another one in a heartbeat, petrol or diesel.
