Hey Nick, Are these you've owned or your family, cause I reckon you would have probably been in primary school when you bought the 99 Disco

And my list is in my sig line and still current, had another piece of something I paid $10 for but ended up scrapping it - can't even remember what it was.

haha,, yer thats our family,, I WISH I HAD THEM CARS,, but im happy with the defender,, iv had some bad luck with it tho, god its not cheap to fix it,, but its the fun that counts,,

oh an how do the old alfa's go,,, do they brake down as much as they say they do

Only a short list (partially as my wife and I rode motorbikes for the first few years)

66 Triumph 2000 (first car - full licence at age 15 in NZ - indestructible)
61 Ford Anglia van
Hillman Super Minx (mid 60's)
76 Lancia Beta
Triumph Herald (early 60's)
84 Datsun Bluebird wagon
XF Falcon (did approx 500K before I called the wreckers)
78 Mazda 323
Mitsubishi Sigma (80's)
ED Falcon wagon (400K and still going strong)
94 Corolla (daughters car but in my name)
97 Disco Tdi

Thought I was dead on Friday nite when I arrived home and announced that I'd just bought another car on eBay (damaged 96 Vitara X90). Luckily before the death blow I managed to explain that it was only $1000 and was partially for parts for youngest daughter's sierra

in the interests of keeping the AULRO server alive i wont list the various shells/bitsa's/wrecks/parts cars that i've had/been involved with/swapped/traded, nor will i list the company cars..... all i'll say is i work at a car yard

Rego'd in my name:

1987 Ford XF Fairmont Ghia (Still have, very sad state in my yard)
1994 Ford ED XR8 Sprint (Still have, and will do till the day i manage to kill myself doing something stupid in it)
1994 Nissan Patrol ST Coilcab Trayback..... dont ask how often i've kicked myself for selling it, only sold it because the injector pump packed it in a few weeks after i bought it, and i got offered what it owed me, so i sold it)

also flogged around a 94 toyota hiace van, ex telstra and loaded to the gills with electrical bits, i claim it as mine cos i'm the only one in the company who didnt object to driving it, and i spent enough time driving the damn thing that it STILL has my butt groove in the drivers seat..... i'm also still the only person in my old workplace who had the nerve to drive it any faster than 90.....

Family cars whilst I've been around...

1980-something Nissan Bluebird
1985 Mistsubishi Colt
1994 Toyota Tarago
1996 Holden Barina (still going with original 1.2L engine & 350k+ km - it refuses to die)
1996 Toyota Corolla (the first and last auto)
2003 Subaru Forester
1996 Ford Festiva

And my personally owned...
1985 Toyota Hilux - my first love, but ultimately not suited to my needs
1998 LR Tdi Discovery - sadly missed. (Rolled 4 times)
1997 LR Tdi Discovery to replace the above
1969 Series 2A 109" GS - the hobby
4 personally and I'm only 21 - I think thats a fair effort.

Mini (pre licence)
EH Holden (more bog than metal)
74 HQ 4 dr Monaro (Modded to a 12sec street machine)
66 Pontiac Parrisienne 4dr pillarless
68 Chev Impala 4dr pillarless
77 Nissan G60
73 HQ Holden (stolen & burnt)
78 Holden Commodore V8
76 Nissan 720 d/cab 2wd

Current
95 Toyota HZJ75 Troopy (had it 11.5yrs and counting)
01 Holden WH Statesman V6
89 Range Rover Vogue (Converting back to street only vehicle)
77 Range Rover (Long term, 4BD1 bush project)
77 Range Rover (Parts)

More motorbikes than I care to remember. Mates used to say I didn't like changing tyres, I just changed bikes.

Sorry to dissapoint ya, but it was original cream colour.

If the army hadn't moved me around, I would have kept it.
