Once pulled a lady completely out of my league, stunning. Drove a Renner 5 Campus in white, pity she turned out to be completely nuts though....

An old girlfriend had a 70's Celica, I've got a pic somewhere.

Girlfriends? We'll be here all day if it's to include GFs FFS. My GF list is as long as my shite list!

We're not all daft enough to be married, Norm!

...a Fiat Punto which somehow needed a new clutch, new brake discs, new pads, new shoes and new drums at a miserable 31,000 miles.

Not unheard of, apparently...

I met one girl as she was fixing the starter on her Mum's Triumph pre-Dolomite 1500 Auto. She was getting the tools from her white GSA. VAH376X.... Right tidy piece too. Nice jugs. And she drank pints. Clever girl she was, and lovely to look at and be with. She's the one I should have worked harder to keep.

My wife is 'into' cars, but isn't the slightest bit interested in the oily bits. She IS interested in how well they drive though, and has owned a succession of increasingly fast Fords - currently a Fiesta ST (2 litre petrol in a Mk6 shell), immediately preceded by a SportKa (1.6 litres in a Mk1 Ka shell).

 

I wouldn't be surprised if she takes the Fiesta up to M-Sport (Ford's WRC team, just outside Cockermouth), for a bit of tuning.

 

She scares me rigid when I'm her passenger as these cars are very fast around Cumbria's twisty roads, and she thinks she's Michele Mouton.

 

Mrs. FA is a far better driver than me, but I wish she'd slow down a tad as I fear for the consequences if it all goes horribly wrong.

 

Perhaps a track/rally day to try and get it out of her system? Though it might make things worse.

Mrs Ramrod had a silver 1986 Vauxhall Nova when we met: 4 door saloon, 1.2, basic as you can get. Early in 1998 she fell for a Suzuki Samurai jeep, which would have been great, except we promptly had a 13 month winter. We decided to get a "proper" car and traded it for a two-and-a-half-year-old Proton 4-door saloon in Willow Green. We'd probably still have that, but for the unwanted attention of a Chrysler Neon a few months short of completing the payments. She then fell for a Hyundai Lantra GLSI estate in dark green metallic, which surprised me as we'd gone to look at a Volvo S40! After the Lantra we had the chance of a 15-month-old Focus 1.6, which we took, but it never felt very special, so we traded it for a Chrysler PT Cruiser. That was bloody lovely, but Mrs Ramrod not being built like Jodie Kidd, she found it hard to position on the road, and especially in car parks. She demanded "something smaller and brand new" so after a couple of test drives, she got a gleaming new Suzuki Ignis 1.3, 5-door, which she kept right up until we left the country. Here in Cyprus she drives the pickup, which amazes me, and even more amazingly, she says she's happy to! She claims it feels safe, fair enough I suppose. She also says she struggles to reverse it; if I was to take off the Truckman top she might find it easier, but I actually like having the lockable top over the open pickup bed.

 

So there y'go, pick the shite out of that lot. Oh and in the same period I've had a Lada, Metro, Montego, Mini, MG Maestro, 2 Volvos, 2 Cadillacs, a retired LAPD car and a bunch of other stuff too!

Now that sounds like my kind of girl.

 

Shame, the GSA seems to have died some time ago. An 1129cc which I believe would make it a GSA Special (pov spec).
