best car you have owned

like the title says, whats the best car you have owned and why. it does not have to be a vx. ad a pic if you have one.
for myself its hard to pick one to be honest. i thought the best diesel engine i owned/drove was the 150 bhp tdi in 03 vw golf gt . favourite and also worst highperformance engine was in my sti type r cos it was 360 bhp and mental fast but also blew up on me even though i very rarely drove it hard !!!
my favourite for looks was escort cosworth but spent too much time worrying about it, parking & theives etc.
I think my all round favourite was bmw 525d m-sport. it was decent on diesel, quick enough for overtaking and had every extra under the sun so was the perfect car for me. now its up to the vectra to see how it sizes up throughout the year. Here's hoping for the best lol.

My modded fabia vas was best car bang for buck.

My best car for handling was my type R gt.

My overall fav was my 123d m sport.

Very tough ... I think it has to be my Mk4 Golf Gtti . 1.8T
I had it re-mapped to 220 bhp from 150 , it was absolutely frantic when required , not a lot would touch it , plus the i have to say the interior wasn't bad either.
Loved it !
Followed very closely by my Cdti 150 .. not just saying that either ...
Next on the shopping list Cdti 150 XP Nav !
already looking

cheers
