    From the album: Past Cars I've owned.

    2009/2010 My 4th Car; 1990 VN Commodore Wagon. Paid $1700 with roughly 298,000 on the clock. Bought completely stock standard minus a badly wired Sony head-unit from a dealership in Moorabbin. This was my first taste of a rear wheel vehicle with some real power and I did my fair share of burnouts. Typical "Commodore" Mods consisting of 18" rims, exhaust, stereo system, lower the arse end etc etc. This car ultimately has lead me to have a love for Holden just as much as Nissan. (Keeping that in mind, I don't particularly like any models of Holden past the 1997 VS Commodore). Got a Canary for bald tyres and car being too low. Mum forced me to sell it, saying it was too much trouble... End of my VN Commodore. When I got the wagon stock, except put in new clear tail-lights

    Toyota Celica 7

    From the album: Past Cars I've owned.

    2009 My 2nd Car; 1991 Toyota Celica SX. Purchased stock standard with just over 200,000 K's on the clock. Installed a full stereo system, cannon muffler, and many other typical 18 year old 'wanky ricer mods'. Car continually overheated, and just kept having major problems go wrong with it, hence, I sold it. End of my Celica.

    PULSAR 3

    From the album: Past Cars I've owned.

    2010 My 5th Car: (Bit of a "stop gap car" purchased by my mother)1998 Nissan Pulsar N15 sedan, bought for $3500, and it literally went to the shit quickly, the entire driving column became f**ked and after visiting a mechanic when sound became excessively noticeable, was told by the mechanic himself, it's a death trap and he himself wouldn't even test drive it IF he didn't have to. Sold it for $900 to a dealer in Geelong who trailered it back from Gippsland. Nuisance of a car.

    Nissan Silvia 5

    From the album: Past Cars I've owned.

    2009 My 3rd Car: 1990 Nissan Silvia Q; Paid $3500 with a reco CA18 in it with 'apparently' around 189,000 on it (I later believe it to be bullshit) This was my first taste of owning a rear-wheel drive vehicle, and have never looked back! Great car whilst it lasted! Shortly after buying it I found it to have regular overheating problems, nothing too drastic, but fairly often they'd occur. Eventually without intention, I blew the radiator in this one, and cracked the head gasket after driving it too hard, too often. Later found out that it's a common thing with the Q models (with the CA18DE Engine, apparently doesn't handle well under high revs). End of my Silvia.

    Holden Nova 4

    From the album: Past Cars I've owned.

    2008 My 1st Car: 1993 Holden Nova SLX Limited. This car was where my love and knowledge of cars would begin and rapidly grow and expand from. One my favourite of all my cars. Picked it up for $900 off the next door neighbor. Was the most fun, back in the day with Shayne, learning how to install audio gear, and do basic little mods. Great memories with/of this car. Sadly a week before selling it, it got written off when Shayne and I were going to get pizza, cleaned up a 15 year old kid on a pushbike, named Dean Dallop, Rolled on the windscreen, shattered it. Car locked up, and swerved into a parked trailer. Long story short, ambulance members and Police told us we were in the clear. End of my Nova.
