What previous cars do you wish you still had

My convertible addiction started with a blue 1978 Fiat spider. Was a gorgeous car until a Volvo ran a stop sigh. The Volvo drove away and mine went on the back of a truck.

A policemen showed up and started to write me a ticket and stating the accident was my fault based on the fact that I was young with long hair and the other guy had a grey beard and drove a Volvo. He was not happy when I stood him in front of the stop sign and told him where he could stick his ticket book.

It does happen and still pisses me off to this day. After the accident I ended up in a long loosing battle with his insurance company. I was young and needed the money for another car. The 124 convertible wasn't common then either and mine was in tip top shape. Engine was rebuilt with bigger cams (still not much power), nice wheels, interior and everything. Insurance company settlement was pennies but I had to move on and get something so I could compute to work.

All this talk of writing off our cars reminds me of the time I was driving along in my Simca 1100 at 3am having a little snooze. As you do. When the road decided to go off in a different direction and a tree jumped out in front of me.

I hadn't even finished paying for that car.
