Ok here we go....

1969 XJ6 Series 1
- dads car, used to drive it up the driveway when he got home from work, had a Shelby worked Windsor V8 in it, pretty good for a 6 year old, lol, got sold when rust started eating the chassis
1976 XJ12
-mates dads car, did a doughnut in his backyard, so technically didnt drive it really, dont know what happened to that one
1989 VN Commodore
-Mums car, got given to me when I got my license, wrote it off 3 months later
1992 EB Falcon GLi -
Dads Car, oil hungry and ran like a dog, sold it for parts
1989 EA Falcon
-Second Car, swapped for a bottle of rum, lasted me a year before I blew the head for the third time and sold it for $250.. 1000% profit
1994 VR Berlina
-Third Car, bought it off my brother with a blown gearbox, sold it after giving it a flogging, bought the EF
1978? HZ Kingswood
-Brothers car, did a pretty good skid for a mild 202 with a trimatic, sold it to get the Eunos
1993 30X Mazda Eunos
-Brothers Car, Fun.. ish.. not bad for a FWD, sold it to get the Senator
1997 VS Senator
-Brothers Car, he sold it after he lost his license and bought a Motorbike
1992 Mazda MX-6
-Dads car... Again.. funish.. for a FWD
2000 Daewoo Leganza
-Mums car, drives like a cloud, Indicators are on the wrong side though
1982 VH Commodore
-Mates car, 253V8, let down by the 3 speed though :(
1992? Toyota Camry -
Ex Girlfriends Car, absolute pig, sold it and bought the 626
1991 Daihatsu Charade
-Mates Car, Actually quite fun for a 3 cylinder manual, sold it and brought the VL
1987 VL Commodore NA
-Mates car, original 5 speed manual, brother ended up buying it and turning it into a skid pig, sold it and brought the Barina
2000? Ford Econovan
-f'in beast, was a clients car with wheelchair access so he could get around
1992 Holden Barina
-Mates Car, probably wouldnt own one, got written off when it became sandwiched in between a Focus and a 4WD, bought the VP Commodore afterwards
1993 Mazda 626
-Ex Girlfriends Car
1995 EL Fairmont

-I want one
1992 VP Commodore

Most fun out of them would have to be the XJ6, the Senator, the VZ SV6, and of course the EF Fairmont

I won't bore people with a long list, I haven't really driven anything I would call exotic or expensive. But here's a list of the most memorable ones that I enjoyed the most...

LX Torana, my mate bought it sight unseen and had no licence, so I went and got a day permit to drive it back to his place. Was a 355 stroker under the bonnet with M21 4 sp
and running 13" fatties allround. Incredibly fun to drive, but also scary as it still had drum brakes...

Mini Cooper S, great fun on twisty dirt roads. Although i used to get bruises climbing in and out.

HX Premier, was a mates toy, threw me the keys one day, and I dont think I stopped smiling for a month after that drive. It was a genuine 10sec street car.

XF ghia, just a lovely car to cruise long distances in.

04 Pursuit, The day I bought it I didn't want to get out of it. Then last week when I had it tuned ... great fun.

VB Commodore cup race car, could have used a lot more power, but the sensation of sliding that thing round corners was unforgettable. Great fun.

Cheers

Wow the list really is to long. I worked on the wharf for a while with patricks auto so heaps there. Now I sell cars so I drive all sorts.
! that really sticks in my mind was a dirty old 40series cruiser a mate owned. It had a 350 holley on it and had a bad tendency to catch on fire. It got me off gaurd 1 morning and nearly burnt to the ground on a freeway on ramp. Had some dick pull up in his dunnydore put down his window to see if I needed a hand, saw the flames and said"f... that" and took off the . lol
