Volvo v90 3.0-dads car, goes like shit off a shovel.

Megane scenic-mums car, urgh slugish and just not good, but spose it is french....

Mini 1275- my mates uses it for road rallies and is probably the best handling car i ahve driven

Corsa 1.2 8v-disgusting.

mates megane-not the best but is well comfy....

Fiesta 1.25-felt real similar to mine jus not as much go, still would'nt have thought many other 1.2s would touch it.

Fiesta rs turbo-f**king stupidly fast, 210bhp and oh my god, handled lovely too except when it starts to boost going round corners and jus wants to go straight!

Renault laguna 1.9td- mates dads car, went well but had real shit brakes.

Ford fiesta xr2i-mates car, quick and sounds amazing too bad the steering rack was fubar'd is all good now though.

Ford capri 2.0-amazing car, my mates tuned and is just soooo fun just wants to go sideways.

1.0 mini-my mates, sounds lovely and everyone looks n smiles when ur driving it :D

Mk5 fiesta zetec s-dissapointing, slower than my 1.4 fiesta and mine dropped 35 handles so much better, poo brakes too.

P reg Astra (older model) 1.4 - Horribly underpowered, slow, rubbish all round.

Polo Mk3 1.6 petrol - Much faster than the Astra ^^^, pretty nice but clutch is heavy.

Golf Mk3 1.9 diesel. Comfortable to drive but not that fun.

Golf Mk4 1.9 Diesel. Pretty nice to drive, much faster than the Mk3. Looks nice too.

Polo saloon Mk3 1.6 diesel. Horrible car, zero power. Can't really go uphill.

Skoda Fabia Diesel 1.6? Dull, but quite good for the money I guess.

Mondeo 2.0l Petrol Mk2. Big and good for bikes, quite nice to drive but not very fast at all.

Skoda Fabia VRS. My mum's mid-life crisis. 135 BHP in a small car. Nicest out of the lot I've ever driven.

Land Rover Defender on some off road course thing. Was fun, but really weird to drive. Clutch is so (intentionally) mushy.

Probably a few more, but meh.

Hardly worth mentioning:

Ford Fiesta Mk3 1.1 P.O.S

Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 16v P.O.S

Renault Megane Coupe 16v

New Clio 1.2 - worst driving position EVER

Peugeot 206 CC - hairdresser tastic

Vauxhall Corsa 1.8 SRi - unbelievably unsatisfying

Peageot 106 GTi - plenty of laughs, apart from having to practically hold the dash on whilst cornering

Toyota Carina 1.8

Ford Transit

Fiat Punto

VW Polo GT

Renault Clio 172 - like a bus to drive, handled well but not for me

Peageot 206 GTi 180 - massively dissapointing

VW Golf mk2

Bit more interesting:

Honda Prelude 2.2 VTEC (Import)

Toyota Starlet GT Turbo (Import)

Ford Focus ST "Asbo"

Honda Civic Type R

Vauxhall Astra (rally)

Land Rover Discovery (off-road)

Lotus Elise (1.8 K Series) - Track

Caterham 7 - Track

Subaru Impreza WRX STi Type UK - Track

Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII MR - Track

Porsche 911 Carrera - Track

Ferrari 360 Spyder - Track

Ferrari 355 ex-Challenge Race Car - Track

Honda Civic VTi almost completely track spec as a daily driver for a year - most fun per £ I've ever had

And finally settled with a Corsa 1.2 blue machine of love as a swap for the Civic... Was a hard choice but economy was required.

Short but sweet, not much exciting...

1.0 Nissan Micra duno what year - Learnt to drive in it, dead easy to drive but all the power of a dead rabbit

1.1 Fezzer mk2 - My 1st car, ran it around for 3 years and 30k, I finally had to scrap it cos the only way I could stop was using the handbrake >_<

1275 Mini clubby - Mates car, thrashed it around with him for a year or so, amazing fun to drive, like a gokart but the head gasket kept blowing!

1430 Hillclimb mini - Car owned by the guy who did work on my minivan, scary 140bhp at the fly, on 10's and went like a fookin rocket!

1.6 VW Golf Mk2 driver - Mates car at uni, quite nippy but sluggish round corners and horrific gearbox

1.6 Peugeot 405 Estate - Dads old car, stupidly heavy clutch, dull and crap

1.9dturbo Peugeot 306 - My current car, love it to bits. A joy to drive and fun to show up little boy racer kiddies when u need to. £50 goes about 650 miles B)

2.0td Renault Espace - Dad's car, light and twitchy steering and horrific body roll. Fun to drive, kinda like a roller coaster, is pretty nippy 2 as the body is all fibreglass.

2.5 twin turbo Lexus Soarer - B) 290bhp anybody? Was an auto but still shat my pants driving it, borrowed it a couple of times of a friend and cant help but giggle when driving it! Fuel consumption is painful though :(

Cant think of anything else. My uncle has a TVR Chimera 4.2 which I really really really want to drive but am not insure to :( I thought the lexus was quick until he took me out for a blast in this....DAMN. The sole reason I want a V8 engined car, pure unadulterated grunt!

Meh will update if think of anything

1.2 corsa - mates car , pretty simple and ok to drive not enough cock pit room in my opinion.

1.7 instructors car - quite nice and new but not hugely nippy.

1.8 gti escort - great interior , nice power , lacking in safety features

2.5 v6 mondeo - immense car , lovely interior , plenty of room and plenty of power and handling and safety features

How many of these entries are cars that have actually been driven? I wouldn't consider anything to do with moving on drives, parking or driving a couple of miles as counting.

My list is pretty small as a result lol

VW Polo 1.4 CL- My car, girly but i love it!

Audi A4 3.0 Quattro (03)- Dad's old car, nice but not a scratch on the current.

Audi A4 3.2 Quattro S-Line (06)- Its amazing how different this one is from the above, a few suspension tweaks and a new engine and its a whole new car. Absolutely love it.

Well below is listed the cars i have driven and you have to bear in mind im 18 so i've only been driving just over a year......

Honda Civic 1.3 DX - Pile of crap, felt horrible, looked horrible but does about 70 in 2nd gear - pretty fast for the engine size.

Renault Megane Coupé 1.6 - My first car, absolutely lovely piece of engineering, i wish it never got crashed into by a blind driver (he wasnt actually blind though)

Mercedes S500 5 litre V8 - what an absolute beauty to drive, big, heavy, luxurious and pimped with electronics, not to mention the incredible roar and speed that comes from it, i got this car to 155mph :D

Mercedes SLK320 - really nice car to drive, convertible as well plus it was summer - driving down the road with a big grin on my face purely because i was driving a merc and as a result, 1 big nail in the tyre. The boss wasnt too chuffed about that.

Range Rover Supercharged Sport - Scary piece of kit, like the controls of a fork lift with bare power. Its scary throwing these into corners because of the shear height but it really can handle nicely.

(Mums car) Renault megane convertible '01 plate - i hate it! just pure crap, its noisy as hell, understeers into corners and is pretty slow for a 1.6 16v, the only good point, errrm sharp brakes.

Mitsubishi Colt - the brand new '06 model - its a pure grandad / disabled persons car. Really nice and comfortable to drive but damaging on street credit. This was a hire car from when my megane got smashed into. I went to a rave, came back to sleep then the rear window got smashed whilst i was asleep. I phoned the company, told them, then they brought me a new car, below:

Renault Megane 1.9DCI - I really did love this car, i had it for about 5 weeks, it was a brand new '06 plate, turbo diesel with 6 speed box and what can i say, it really is a pleasure to drive, so comfortable and easy going yet when you stick you foot down in any gear it pulls with a lot of torque.

Peugeot 406 Sri Turbo - My current car, the white beauty been seen on here by some members, its back in action and i absolutely love it, it does feel somewhat like a racing car rather than comfortable but thats just the way i like it - fast!

I have driven other peoples cars inbetween but thats nothing worth mentioning really, so i believe thats about it.

I was a driver for my dads car company for a year so i've pretty much driven 100's of different cars, alas i won't be listing them all. The big two though were -

Bentley Continental GT, super super awesome. Hated having to drive anything else after that. Got some funny looks, long haired 19 year olds aren't your average bentley driver :P

Porsche 911, got kinda scared in that one but was still a great lil drive.

Both were driven from bradford to york so i got quite a bit of time in them.

Then theres all the £100 corsas and novas i bought, they were fun in a life threatening way :D
