Not many as im only 21 but here goes in order of ownernship (the year is the year of the car not the year that it was owned):
1999 Vauxhall Astra 1.8 Sport 3dr
1999 Volvo C70 T5 Manual in Black, modified to the hilt
2000 Nissan Almera 1.5 SE (owned the same time as above as a runaround)
2000 Nissan 200SX Touring manual
2002 Volvo C70 T5 GT Manual, probably staying standard for a while.
The last car on the list should have been an S60 R or a Monaro VXR but due to being made redundant early this year for about 3 months, then getting a new job that pays half what I was on it was never going to happen!

Volkswagen Polo Fox 1.0 litre 50bhp
Mk1 Fiat Punto 75 1.2 litre 85bhp
Mk1 Fiat Punto GT 1.4 litre 136bhp
Fiat Coupe 16VT 2.0 litre 195bhp
Volvo V70 T5 2.3 litre 240+bhp
As you can see, the engine sizes aswell as bhp steadily increases from car to car, if the T5 engine ever went bang (touch the genuine volvo wooden dash lol) then i would do an ala spesh and go for the 2.5, i think that would be my limit for normal day to day cars, as for weekend cars then id have to break the rule and have a TVR with Rovers finest 5 litre V8s :D

My turn!
1989 Ford Fiesta 1.0L in Pink (Well, it was red, but it went pink!) - Never drove this on the road, was a "toy" to get used to the feel of a car after 2-wheels.
First real car:-
2003 Renault Clio 1.4 Dynamique - Brilliant, nippy & economical. But I loved the Volvo's quality, power and sturdyness, so I bought a....
1995 Volvo 850 T5 Auto estate - Loved this car, but after a year I fancied a change, so I bought a.....
2003 Volvo S60 D5 SE! - Superb.
I'm not sure what I want next. The "grand plan" is for an S60R, but if I can combine the D5 engine with the AWD system as they offer it in mainland Europe, I'd be very, very tempted.

So you took the seats out and got somebody to push?
Nearly, couldn't justify geting a full roll cage so kept the seats. I spent far two much money on one of the astra's that I had. Wish I spent it on a T5 instead, I'm sure the grins on my face would have been much bigger!!
