Long term shit car fan, new to forum

[D-Dubya]

Hi all!

Im new to the forum posting wise, however i have been a lurker for ages. I have always been into shite cars, especially 70's & 80's shite, in particular, BL shite. At the moment i dont have anywhere to store a third car, but i have a list of cars i wish to own which most of the people outside of the forum would consider mental. Rover SD1s, Ford Granada's Maestros and Princess' to name a few of my shit list.

 

I may not have an ideal shit car but im the owner of some french shite. A 306 HDi phase three, 70k on the clock, no rust, but full of scrapes and bumps. It does well, apart from not starting when theres a frost over night (nothing a new battery wouldnt solve!) However, my shite is under threat. This is the car the other half uses, and its the wrong car for her needs, and its getting tatty, true 90s cack, and she wants rid, but its still with us. Despite the french shite we've had before, this bugger just doesnt die, even when its not looked after!

 

My Shite history so far

 

96 N Seat Ibiza 1043i, you name it, it fell off it

52 Shitroen Saxo 1.0, as waterproof as a teabag and a complete rust bucket with brakes made of cheese

2001 Y Pug 306 HDi

 

Anyways im still browsing lots of the threads!

Welcome along.

Don't worry about 306 diesels not wanting to start, it's par for the course.

Welcome, sounds like you'll fit right in

[philibusmo]

Welcome along. You may not have any shite cars now, but just wait, now you're here that will change. When I joined I had 2 cars, one of which I was considering selling.

 

I now own 4, all of which are majorly broken in one way or another.

 

Welcome to the ruination of your life.

Welcome from me too, and I feel your pain I've had dealings with three 306 diesels (2 on loan and 1 owned) and I fee your pain.

 

As you can tell I've got a varied list of shite too.
