Fiat Punto HGT Abarth in Broom Yellow. With 17" Fox Evo 3's in anth silver. It was brand new and PX it with only 13k (from new) on the clock to get my scoob.

Did look really nice even if it was a FIAT.

S-class mercedes. Where do you go after owning one of those...? Answer: something mad & fun like a scooby.

Now got another S-class but the 5-litre one this time :-)

E46 M3 coupe - was getting sick of stupid garage bills with no parts actually used and having to go back to the garage three times for them to get anything right. Engine was a peach but half the year you couldn't get the power down as it was raining, so loving the awd in the scoob!

Just looking foward to my next one - want it to have the same bhp as the beemer had, now that'll be proper fun
