1995 Chevy Cavalier Coupe - my first car
1994 Honda Prelude AT with 4 wheel Steering. Great car. This was when Honda was fun.
1996 Honda Prelude vtec MT. Much more fun to drive and vtec kicks in 7k rpm.
1996 BMW 325is ( my first BMW) E36.
1996 BMW M3 (3.0lt) E36 coupe
1998 BMW M3 (3.2 lt) E36 coupe. A true sports car. Loved it.
2001 BMW M3 E46 convertible. Another great car.
2002 jaguar X type 3.0 . It was a disappointment after E46 M3 but it wasn't all that bad.
2002 BMW M3 E46 coupe with SMGII and 19 " wheels.
2006 BMW E90 330i with n52. I was so mad that one year after BMW introduced n54.
2009 BMW X5 3.0 with sport package with dynamic drive. Great car. I just sold it a few weeks ago. For an SUV , that car handled just as good as my new car. Flat cornering.
2014 BMW 535i F10 with M sport . (Jet black. My son named it BlackMonster)
Great car so far. Comfortable ride. Fast and very fuel efficient. Much better I drive upgrade.

We've got the M37 in the running along with a 528 (which is in first place) Any comparison?

We've got the M37 in the running along with a 528 (which is in first place) Any comparison?
The obvious advantage the m37 has is power, it's 330hp vs 240hp in 528. but other than power, 5 series has much better ride, transmission, braking, handling, and looks(subjective). I don't have 528, but hands downs my 535 msport is a better car than my former m37 sport.

EVERDYAY:
1989 - Ford Fiesta 1.1 - Got fed up of replacing HT leads (20 mins to warm up & run properly)
92 - Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.7d - ran everywhere with foot to floor as gutless
96 - Peugeot 406 estate 2.0td - great load lugger, comfortable cruiser but bit dull.
02 - BMW 325i sport tourer converted to LPG - great car, twice round clock and still tight.
12 - F11 525d sport - noticeable difference how game has moved on, less involving but massive ability to go quickly in comfort.

FUN:
1992 - Westfield 1700xflow - 4 speed box ran out of gears at 90mph but great car to learn oversteer (sold at profit so 2 years free motoring!).
94-97 Westfield 2.0 16v Vauxhall engine - insanely fast and oversteered at 70mph on request great fun (sold to dealer for profit so free motoring!).
97-2001 Cobra kit car 4.6 V8 Chevvy - loud, intimidating and frankly rubbish! (lost shed load!)
2001 - present Lotus Elise Sport 160 - great back to basics car for weekends trackdays and having fun.

Volvo 340DL (enough said about that!)
Volvo 240GLT (really liked this car, I know Volvo was knocked for not being 'cool' in the UK back then but thought it a good car)
Volvo 760 Turbo
Saab 9000 CSE (2.3L turbo) (felt quick to me at the time)
Saab 9-5 Griffin (3.0L V6) This is the last my front wheel drive cars, vowed never to get a FWD car again
BMW E39 530i MSport (extremely good car and what I personally consider to the pinnacle of BMW quality for the time - and still good today IMHO)
BMW F10 530D Msport again very good, just steering that really lets it down.

Ha, hadn't thought about adding the fun cars ....

'98 to '06 - Caterham 1400 Supersport, 130bhp, light, agile and the most fun you could have with your trousers on
'06 to present - Caterham Superlight R, 222bhp and 500kg weight It did have 244bhp until I blew it up on track, now tamed a little for reliability!

I do still fancy an Elise though ....
