These last few years (2002+):

F360 F1
F348
F355
Carrera
Hayabusa K8

Which one is the most fun?

Yeah, you guessed it. Two wheels. Now have the Hayabusa and the old Alfa you can spot behind the F348 which 'er indoors drives. Cars no longer interest me and I use the bike only.
 
If the F360 is boring you and sitting there unused let me know - happy to borrow it and put it to good use :)

Beautiful cars mate !

And who says drop catching doesn't pay well eh ?
 
I wish! Those cars were before I ever did catching or catching consultancy in 2006. These days it's a meagre existence! There are people cleverer than me but they bothered (huge hint here) to keep stats. So now I am poor and humble.
 
No picture as its currently about to be restored (never use a beema for landscaping work! - especially if your labourer cant catch branches from great heights!)

..but its an E30 (the best) going to have a 2.8 alpina engine dropped in, uprated shocks, brakes, 18inch alloys, total waxoil and respray (obviously before the engine goes in - it will be stripped out completely), currently calypso red but will change this to a sort of mustard metallic colour, A humdinger superwoofernutterbleeder 4K stereo system (wattage, not price).

By golly Id better get some sales in!
 
So what did you do before then Dale ?
Well, it's a long story! I bought a motorcycling site for £10k and it floated on AIM for £13.5 million, but I was silly with the stock dilution. Regardless, that was a flop anyway. In 1999 I started a web-based email system but that was copied even though I made a few quid in a trade sale. So, what I need you to know, is that I am just as hungry and poor as the next man right now. This was a thread about cars; and I have had more than I've said, but I am am now humbled and I can assure you I'm not making a fortune out of catching. Yet.
 
Damn Dale you blew a few million respect, I bet a lot of members here would have a red nose after that :p
 
Well I've still got my clapped out V reg Corsa, the back seat is full of old takeaway bags and the only time I've had it cleaned in the last few years is when the local church were offering a free car wash (and they did a crap job!).

If I had a £million I'd still be driving it in the same condition, if it goes forward and steers I'm happy :)

Id never get a F355, everyone would always think its a MR2
