I drive one of these right now, since none of my 2 cars are regged at the moment (thats soon about to change though). This is a last series '88 mk2 Opel Ascona (Vauxhall for the english, and i think its Holden in australia), it has a 2.0l fuel injected DOHC engine doing about 105Hp. Its an ok car, but im far from loving it. It does its job good but nothing special. My other 2 cars, what are ACTUALLY mine are a '77 Ford Granada v6 and a '89 Escort Xr3i. Both great cars
Well, I Own two vehicles, and then I have my work truck. The kia and buick pictures are not exact but they look the same, color etc. I own a 2003 Kia Sedona And a 1996 Buick Regal. My work truck is a 2014 Kenworth T800 From Miller Industries. These pictures are real.
Well I might as well join in on the fun, since I love my project cars Short, short story: I'm always broke, both of these cars cost less than $1k when I bought them, and my budget for modifications is rock bottom. The MX-6 was a non-turbo with a turbo swap. Estimated power output was 200hp and 300tq @10psi, deadly fast. The current 626 has the lower compression GT motor, and probably makes 180hp and 250tq. Work in progress. 1989 MX-6 DX, converted to GT, and a list of mods way too long to post here. (Now retired and stripped of parts to give new life to my new project) (imported from here) (imported from here) (imported from here) (imported from here) 1989 Mazda 626 GT, my current non-registered, non-insured, work in progress.

I drive a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 long bed extended cab. It gets terrible gas mileage and costs $100 every time I fill up, but I love it
We used to have an F430 pretty much like this one: but it was to expensive to insure + we'd had it for ages so we got an old Porsche Targa (the last of the air-cooled porches) instead The porsche is fun but not particularly suited to everyday use so we have a couple of everyday cars in the drive while this sits in the garage! There super cheap for porches aswell. Rob
Great big and muscle car !! My first car is..................................................................... Toyota Aygo.................................................. okay is little car and not very fast but good handling and topspeed for engine 993cm² !! (170km - 105miles/per hour) and economic !
1999 Ford Escort LX @ ~170k miles. Nothing special under the hood, though its seen 117 mph. Only once, ever, and that's probably because the planets aligned. (imported from here) Most recent picture I can find, which was taken almost two and a half years ago. The rocker panels on both sides are significantly more rusty than it was then and there are a few more dents. And there is some surface rust above both wheelwells on the driver side (bizarrely, absent on the passenger side). And the clear-coat is horribly deteriorating on the hood. Still just as reliable as it was then though and its never left me in a tough spot in the 5 years I've had it. Plus, they are ridiculously cheap to fill up and have a decent amount of storage. Plan on keeping it until it blows.

Saw some other guys with mr2s which is awesome. I've loved these cars ever since I was little. They make great project cars. The first MkII MR2 I bought cheap with a blown motor. Taking the motor out. Have to drop it out the bottom with these cars. Easiest way. You can see how rough looking it was. Motor out of the car. Connecting rod had punched a hole through the block. New motor going in. The bastards i bought it off of sent the motor with the engine wiring harness cut in half before the fusebox. I had a heck of a time splicing new connectors for the fusebox and ecu but got it running in the end. This is it today. Haven't done much else with it, just gave it a coat of paint. It runs nice and strong. 2nd MR2 I bought for even less. Saw it for $700, had to get it. 115,000 miles, runs fine. Hell of a deal. After doing some body work. 3 days after I painted it, took it out drifting and tapped a tree very lightly with the front fender. You can kinda see the dent. And there it is today. Both of them are N/A. I'm always on the lookout for a 3sgte MR2, but can't seem to find one cheap. I might just have to swap one in. And this is my baby. 2003 Dodge SRT-4 Neon, Stage 3 mopar kit, 50 trim, running just a dump pipe. Plenty of other mods. Got it dynoed at last years Carlisle Car Show 402 hp to the wheels, gets a bath every day
I drive a 2002 Buick Regal GS. It has a Supercharged 3.8L V6. I put a fenderwell intake on it, and straight piped it to the muffler. I plan on throwing a smaller pulley on at some point. I also have this, it's a 1969 Pilgrim Bulldog Classic kit car. Has a four banger from a pinto. Project car, basically.
My 2008 Ford Focus Titanium 1.6l. Had it since last November to replace my 2003 Ford Focus LX 1.6l. The mk2.5 is certainly a huge step up from the mk1.5! (imported from here)
