My first was a 1973 Beetle which I got in the late 80's and still have....one day i will finish it and get it on the road as I am yet to drive
it a single foot
Also had;
Mini Clubmen automatic (yuk)
Mk2 Fiesta Popular van (cheap)
Rover 214 (8V K series with a carb....went very well until I wrote it off at 5mph)
Then I had this E30 M3 but in a totally 'standard' form. It was my
daily driver for 4 years and I did over 45K miles in it, they really are as good as every review and I have missed it everyday since  The only
saving grace is I sold it to the guy in Norway knowing he was going to use it for what it was meant and turned it into the car it is today
Followed that with a string of boring family cars (Astra, Pug 306, Focus, Zafira) with only the Striker to keep me from going insane.... this year
though we finally got to choose a slightly more fun car to replace one of the family cars (still have a Mazda 5...yawn) and have a nice new Mini
Copper with a few options thrown in

Which is a shame I think, because the French really know how to make performance engines IMHO.

Previous car was w-reg 1.6 of otherwise the same car.
Now driving a E36 compact, fun but very much older feeling.
Also the westfeild, obviously!
