Hmmmm, ok my initial idea of putting up a second post the same day REALLY did not go to plan at all!!
Oh well!
Anyway, here is an introduction to one of my major hobbies – cars and my basic history with my latest cars:
- 1989 Mini Thirty
- 1994 Honda CRX ESi
- 1996 Honda CRX ESi
These are the three cars I currently have on my driveway (or more correctly my parents driveway since I’m renting my house out at the moment).
The Mini
I’ve had this car since I was 16 or 17, so almost 6 years now and it’s been through various stages!
I first got the car before I passed my test as I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it for sale in my local Morisons supermarket, quickly borrowed money off my parents (I’d only just started work) and bought it straight away.
I absolutely love this car, always have and probably always will, it took me through my test and also (rather upsettingly) into my first accident.
It got completely repaired though, whilst at the same time had all rust removed and a full-respray to put it back to perfect condition.
It’s now a bit worse for ware admittedly, rust is coming through the surface, needs the sills welding up, etc. really want to get it all perfect again but i’ve just got too many expenditures going out at the moment to do it!
1994 Honda CRX
This was my first Japanese car and I’ve really fallen in love with these cars now!
I bought the car from a friend of mine (that I unfortunately don’t really speak to anymore) and, although pretty expensive, was just amazing!
I spent quite a bit of money on this car including a full custom interior, full respray, etc.
Now it’s kind of in bits on my driveway and I can’t decide what to do with it, but that’s another story!
1996 Honda CRX
This is my latest CRX delsol that I’ve bought, it’s a very rare Adriatic Blue colour with many extra’s that are quite rare (and some that aren’t):
- Adriatic Blue
- Electric Aerial
- Transtop Roof (Electric hard-top convertible)
- Full Black interior
- Gathers rear speaker grills, etc.
This is where my major funds drain is at the moment as I just don’t seem to be able to stop spending on it.
(I’m planning another post in the near future that will talk just about this car =D )
But yep, I’ve spent a hell of a lot on this car, more than I’d like to think of and a lot more than the cars worth – but hey, who cares? – it is a hobby afterall!!
I have had many other cars, but these are my main/favourite cars that I like talking about the most. I could actually talk about them for pages and pages so I decided to keep this as a really short summary of them and then I’ll see if I want to expand on the others later and maybe give a further insight into other vehicles I’ve owned
