Whats the most fun car you have ever driven?

[BROD]

First of all im not sure if this is in the right section or if this has been a topic before but im sat here extremely bored so thought id ask you all. What is the most fun car you have driven or maybe even been a passenger in? Is it now your beloved nova or maybe a preivious mk1/mk2 escort or even a 205gti of sorts. Would also be good to hear what spec it was and the reasons for it being such a laugh? :thumb:

Metro 6R4....Co-Driver 1 rally of Epynt....Enough said.

[Southie]

Passenger in a Brabus Rocket, bloody fast motor and scared the cack out of me to see the speedo ...errrr very high lol

[mk1nova_rich]

Driven - my old C16XE Mk1 Nova :d

Been in - my mates rally prepped Nova flat out through Dalby Forest

[novalew]

passenger - was my mates clet corsa one of the brazil conversion jobbies - i think i was scared of catastrophic failure as much as the pace of the car.
As a driver was a nissan skyline r32 gts - it just seemed to have a huge huge amount of power - i was a lot younger back then though...

[Connor]

My stripped out bucketed up 1.6 nova, by far not the quickest car i have driven, but put a smile on my face every time i drove it, and because it didn't owe me anything i could drive it like i stole it without worries :)

Maybe not the most fun, but the latest thing to add to my automotive experiences, was driving a strangers Ferrari 456GT V12.
Went to a wedding last Saturday and the groom was brought to the church by his Ferrari owning friend. When I turned up at the church I recognised the model of the Ferrari (mostly down to the fact I had a model of it on a shelf as a teeneger) and showed some background knowledge. He took some of us out for a blast down the A13 after the ceremony and then took a couple of kids out in it after. He pulled over and declared that I could drive it back to the reception! "Its ok, your covered, Ive got traders insurance" he said, "you havent even asked if Ive got a licence" I thought!!
Quite trusting I thought considering he'd only known me for a couple of hours!! lol

Scariest passenger ride would probably of been in a friend's tuned series 2 Escort RS turbo, lots of boost, lack of traction, questionable driving skills!!

[Southie]

Driven - my old C16XE Mk1 Nova :d

Which I built and enjoyed first... for you to then strip and sell on you fool lol

[novait]

we have a s4 2.7 biturbo that comes in to work and its very nice to drive been played with but not to sure whats been done but very fast :)
i have to say driving the nova makes me happy and is very fun round all the back roads

[8valve-craig]

Driven - Sierra XR4i on a slippery forrest road

Passenger - Subaru Type 25 (litchfield imports product built with cosworth parts)

[Benn]

Ex- Bat touring car Rs500 Sierra thing, so much power, more much side ways... Scared me alot. but loved it.

[Stuart]

Driven - Abarth 500 is the best 'all rounder'

Passenger - Pagani Huayra with their test driver many many times (have also driven it but I wouldn't class it as the 'best' lol )

[mowgli]

the most fun motor i ever drove on the road was a 1600d mk2 astra estate. it was meant to be a works van/runner vehicle.
2 days after getting it, it was rear ended by a prat in a punto & the insurers paid us £300 more than it cost to go away, no write off etc...so the van was 'free'.... i straightened it out with a 14lb hammer & a ratchet strap round a post, and simply drove it into the ground... as hard as it could go was a fast as i drove it.. at the time scrap cars were worth £5 and less a quid per tyre, so people were fly tipping wheels & tyres all over the place, so i used to go to the council depot & pick up a set of tyres about once a month..

an honourable mention has to go to a b reg 1600 maestro that probably still holds the world record for an old sh!tter driving from newbury to the portsmouth ferry port... we'd been held up in a traffic jam & were late for the ferry, and it was certainly the most intense drive i've ever done...

and finally, my mates rwd opel ascona. it was a shed, but we fitted all sorts of manta bits to it, and it was a fine handling car, in a straight line, it would take 16v golfs up to about 90, when it started running out of gears, so we'd have to let them go & then simply blast past them at the next bends.. it cornered so well..

[turbojolt]

Mk1 Mx5 1800, wet around roundabouts with no one around good times i was DK in my own little world lol

[mowgli]

what do you mean 'was'? lol lol lol

[turbojolt]

you flapping flunt lol

seriously fun little car once i removed all the alleged 'tuning' parts it was quick as well

[Jon_nova1]

The Mazda 323 turbo 4x4 i've got on my driveway, so fun i've had it for 6 years, handles so well it kept up with an evo 6 on corners, it had a makinen edition kit on it, unsure whether it was authentic, but still couldn't lose me on corners when i had standard suspension.

Straight line speed is pretty insane for a car built in 1992 that cost me £900 at the time, just under 6 seconds with a passenger, to date the only thing its lost to is a 350Z which only starting gaining as i was getting towards the national speed limit, and whoever posted about the GTS, over about 3/4 mile stretch, i left one so far behind he got caught in traffic that had filtered into thier respective lanes, he managed to catch up as i had filtered into my lane to get to work and i was behind some more traffic he was filtering into the other lane and had already cut up aload of traffic, i've never seen anyone so angry at losing a race lol

[BRoadGhost]

Most 'fun' was probably when I was 6 going out in my dad's Morgan +8.

Driving is totally different to being a passenger imo.

[boomtings1]

Driven- has to be my nova, just gets better every time i drive it. Evan over the evo.

Passenger- id like to say the AC Cobra but i wasn't in it for long, it was abit damp and and the guy spun it on a roundabout smashing it up :/

[Asa-James]

Morgan +8 v8 with straight through exhausts. I don't think I went any quicker than about 50mph but the noise and lack of roof/doors/safety just made me laugh the whole time.

[novadave24]

someone i work for some times at weekends hes the bmw m5 with that red botton :) so much fun side ways love it .
get to drive all sorts of cars mk4 golfs mk5 golfs bmws c class e class x5 rang rover they all nice but that m5 love it :)

[16xe_chris]

Subaru impreza rally car was going good till I lost third gear but still finish 17th oa / my old nova rally car.

Passenger in a lamborghini murcialago wow them things can accelerate!!

[Lee H]

Driven - probably my Civic Type R, never seems to get boring downshifting while already doing 6k rpm. Just love how it revs.

Passenger - my mates old MR2 turbo, running nearly 500bhp it was phenomenally quick. Enjoyed going out in it more than my bosses new DB9!

[Hobbit]

Driving is my nova at PVS this year. Thus moment especially...

http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p72/wiggardywoo/481271_10150870091351128_217190001_n.jpg

Giving a 540bhp supercharged beast such a close run was a rush.

Passenger would be in a mates 300bhp S14a, it was built to go side ways and he could hang the **** out a treat.

Edit, and Lee driving my Nova round Combe, scared the crap out of me but showed what my car can do..aand unfortunately how far away I am from driving it that quick lol

[istf]

We were create a "car" (kludge) from wood boxes and toy truck wheels with my friends. There are no break, no steering system, just the slope. Lot of crash and bush bustering, but I always smile when it occurs to me but I had a hard child-ages :D

[Balley]

Passenger would be Gunny's VXR Nova, wow that was just incredible!


And driving my self would probably be my own Nova, I like it because people never expect an old diesel to shift :)

[philip]

Driven - my evo6 caged, ap 6pots, bc coilovers etc has knock fault currently so way down on power but before fault 370bhp put big smile on face.

Passenger - mates sierra or his mk2 grp 4 escort sideways, unreal how relaxed you can feel going sideways at about 60/70mph

[wwmnw]

Ginetta G20 round croft.

[Mazz]

The most fun I've had recently was driving Hobbits V6 with Scott giggling in the passenger seat!

[turbojolt]

forgot to add passanger that has to be in a 450 hp rwd sapphie cosworth, amazing car so fast it was unreal to much power for a road car imho

[Mieran]

As a passenger was in mk3 astra van with saab engine around knockhill, I've seriously never been so scared in my life lol lol

[Riggy]

Driven has to be my nova as you can just drive like a **** and love it lol

Passenger , well any car that Rexy has ever owned always prove to be fun lol

[Stuart]

I'd like to add a 2nd car to my 'fave' drives as it can't go without a mention.
SRS1's old red XE with crap tyres and dire suspension at Llandow with WillF crying and laughing in the passenger seat :d happy times lol

[matt_vaughan]

OMS Single Seater Hillclimb car. GSXR SRAD engine running ~160bhp. Considering it only weighs 330 odd kilos, its bloody quick. Massive slicks make about 3.2-3.3 0-60 times and a very blurry world at full throttle. So much fun!

[BROD]

Some awesome cars you lot have had or been lucky enough to drive! Being 16 I haven't driven much or passengered in too much neither but the most fun I've had in a car is either my mates dads audi rs6 or in my nova when my mate owned it! Absolutely silly speed around some lanes that he knew like the back of his hand at night while he gave me a commentary of his driving hahaa! The awesome sound and handling of the car coupled with the fact he knew how to drive it! Made me want a nova bad! And that was the first time I ever parked my *rse in the old girl!
My best driving experience has to have been driving my nova on some private roads a few weeks back with my dad in the passengers seat! It may have been slow and finding a gear was like lucky dip but I fell inlove with the car that night! :D
