Back in the day my neighbour had a silver Astra GTE (I believe it was mk2, we're talking 1986/87 here). His mate used to come in a mk1 Mr2 T-Bar (my favourite car in the world and one i knew I would have one day).
In those days, it was Astra GTE, Escort XR3i, Escort RS Turbo, Golf GTI, Pug 205GTI (1.6 and 1.9), Renault 5 Turbo, wasn't there a Citroen as well - can't remember. My uncle had a Cavalier 1.6L, other uncle had an XR3 (not i), and I showed up in (someone's) RS Turbo and they were well annoyed that I didnt let them drive it (it wasn't my car to allow them the opportunity). Regardless of which car you was a fan of (mine was Golf and Pug), I had a soft sport for Fast Fords.
In that era, I was very lucky to drive all of the above cars (except R5 and Citroen) plus many. many others. IDK if those times were fun because "it was the 1980s/90s) or because i was young then, or a combination of the two but all I know is I feel very luck to have lived in that era at the age that I was.
