Good Evening Shiters 
My name is Ben and for most of my conscious life I have been a fan of the unusual and quirky in the automotive world. 
I am a young classic enthusiast, I passed my test last October having learnt in my Volvo 480ES
My passion for cars was started by my late grandfather's Audi WR quattro that he bought new in 1986, I wrote an article for PetrolBlog on it. As a result of this I have a taste for the quirky, left field vehicles that are often nearly extinct. 
My eBay saved search list is extremely long, but includes a raft of odd 1970s,80s and 90s cars, most of them performance intended* 
Currently the cars that I drive are the aforementioned 1988 480ES and a 1994 Rover 220GSi 3dr, the latter of which I am considering selling to make space for an Isuzu Piazza, of which I harbour much desire. 
The Piazza is my goal for the year, though a Mk2 Cavalier SRi hatch would be nice and an Audi 80/90 quattro still beckons me in my dreams. 
 
Anyway, I greatly look forward to contributing to this community, and continuing my Tat filled automotive adventure!
Cheers

Yes, Nice to have the story it's own space, will probably end up being called something like Ben's Tatventures!
Yes the 480 is very different to the Twin-Cam Rover, I thought going from the gentle peppy Renault lump to the T-Series would be dangerous, but it was quite fun!

Sure, I have someone I want to give refusal to and HubNut might be doing a video on it in April so it might be available after that, I had a change of heart last time, such is the way...

@MisterHwelcome, and wow what a lovely 480! And R8 rover, you are clearly in the right place. 
I had a 440 recently,  and I started my driving career twenty odd years ago in the Rover. 
I've clearly moved up in the world,  I'm now on a 740!

It does... but it's always nice to set up your own thread and use that to talk about your cars, so best of both worlds!

welcome aboard, id love a mk2 cav sri again..

Greetings.

Greetings and welcome to the forum. I'm sure you will fit in well with chod like that. 

Good luck with the piazza, they're in big money territory on eBay now - when they even appear. I do seem to remember a member brought one to SF Wales a few years ago though.
Welcome anyway and I never knew eBay has a saved search function - that sounds like dangerous territory!

Someone say Volvo?
