Posted January 22, 201015 yr As we are all petrol heads on here, of both 4 and 2 wheeled versions, i thought id post up some pics of past cars ive owned, loved, and in 2 cases smashed 1st up, my Jap crap, im a huge Jap turbo car fan: My 800bhp Skyline R32 GTR: Next up, my circa 600bhp Mazda RX7 track car(just had a fresh rebuild, currently joining the GTR in the run in process, soooo boring : Ricky
January 22, 201015 yr Author Next up is my(or rather used to be) gorgeous Lotus Elise 111R, this was an epic little car to drive, but unfortunately for me, just not in the wet, here are the before pics: And the after: Really not proud of this crash, i loved that car soooooo much, was a little present to myself for my 22nd Bday and cost a bomb, then a year later(day before my 23rd Bday) ended up like how it did. Was a shame too, was the ULTIMATE chick magnet Next up, My Astra VXR Nurburgring Ltd Edition: VXR is now sold tho, got rid of this in June to make way for a VW Tiguan Have owned a few other cars aswell as these, but dont have any pics. Also owned a heavily modified Evo8 FQ300, this suffered a similar sort of fate to the Lotus, however this was due to an old man piling into me at 70mph and making me land in some trees Still trying to find the pics of the Evo pre and post smash. So come on guys and gals, lets see pics of your past and current cars, always interesting to see what bikers other rides are. Ricky

February 6, 201015 yr Author "Scuse me, ur ye awrite pal" Lol people were asking that, they also couldnt believe i was the driver and escaped with nothing broken or cut lol. Only thing i was bothered about was my new jersey, it was ruined with the dirty water
February 6, 201015 yr Author absolutly amazing skyline u got there probably my favourite car of all time. whats ur 0-60 0-100 in it. and u ever take it round a track Hi mate, couldnt tell you its performance figures as it never gets used, got a fresh rebuild in August and has covered half a mile since. Hasnt saw a track either as it decided to melt 5 pistons within 200 miles of being imported Ricky

February 6, 201015 yr Moderator Also, wheres pics of everybody elses cars? I wanna see what you other bikers use as daily commuters, or weekend toys that arent on 2 wheels. Ok then here you go a not very flatering shot of our 4.6 V8 Rangie The wifey's got a rice burner, comfy and economical but hardly Petrol head central. Edit, oppsy nearly left the reg plate in....
February 7, 201015 yr this thread reeks of epic win! you got a nice collection there Ricky mate :)your tracker is quite rare.. dont see many of these on the roads
February 8, 201015 yr Im more of an American muscle guy to be honest would love an old Dodge Charger or Challenger. My dad used to have one pretty similar to this mach 1 Mustang 1971 but white and black. Used to drag race it at Santa Pod pretty heavy modified would get under 10secs AND drive it home again! My CCM which i just quickly turned the screen black in a sketchy photoshop pic. I like it
February 9, 201015 yr Moderator Closest thing I currently own that might qualify as PetrolHead Central.... Only because this is what's under the hood .....

Its called working offshore And i am a finance junkie lol. And the Lotus wasnt trashed, it was in an accident, if you look at the pics before the crash, a think you'll see it was kept it mint condition I loooooooooooooove V8's, Brittish or American. Would love to buy a new ZR1 Corvette, but its way over my budget My mate had a V8 Rangie, he loved it, good cars, he traded it in for a new Supercharged Sport version last year.
