Hi, I'm Dave
I drive a rattly, squeaky blue van which is disappearing for the summer
Every car I've insured under my own name, I've had to put together
I have an unhealthy obsession with collecting cars, cut down this year to just 12 under my name
In my spare time I only work on my current collection, somehow...
I don't really do anything else, except college schtuff
I have a sweet tooth and as a result have lost a tooth, have 12 fillings and 2 root canals. Costly...
I hate ALL modern music...
I learned to drive at 12 and got my first car at 15
I've got 2 Fiat Bravos, an Opel Vectra, a VW Polo, 2 Ford Fiestas, a BMW 525i (E34), a Fiat Punto Sporting, 2 Fiat Tempras, an Alfa Romeo 166 - my project this summer.
And I just picked up a Peugeot 406 HDI. BTW, I've got pics if anyone thinks I'm telling porkies!
My Dad is just as bad - he has stuff that hasn't moved since I was a young'un!
PIC HEAVY!!!
I have a day off college Wednesday so I'll go around and take some pics of them all and put them up for you guys to take a look
Thanks for reading guys!
Hope to visit this site often and get to know a few of ye
Oh where are my manners...

Welcome
That is quite a collection of cars you have there!
I like the Alpha 166, stunning looking car, what is wrong with that one? Piccies?

Re: Oh where are my manners...
Thanks! I bought it as a non-runner, head gasket went. I repaired it myself and just left it sitting in the garden. Now it just needs little jobs; needs some wishbones, an engine mount and a cracked windscreen. I'm going to leave it sitting in the garage now until I get some time to work on it.Citroenmad wrote:Welcome

Re: Oh where are my manners...
Just gonna put these up here for you all to drool over
This is my daily driver;
Fitted this badboy
Alfa 146 handbrake and Marea centre console
146 skirts a cheap set of alloys
Those lovely Alfa seats from a 156
156 pedal covers
And a 156 wheel
Why? because I can
Expect to see some bits of a 166 in there someday (not my one obviously!)
Oh and by the way, I'm not forgetting pics of the 166!
