Life before the EG

By ChicagoMike
- Sun Mar 25, 2007 7:18 pm #3664 So we all have EG's now, but the question is.......what were you rocking before the EG?? Post pics and a lil run down.

For me it was the 2000 Civic Si (EM1)
Had my ITR under the hood and was totally gutted. Car went 13.9 with the stock Type R motor.

Vid of the 13.9 pass.......

- Sun Mar 25, 2007 11:32 pm #3681 My car history:-

1st car was a 1968 Sunbeam Stiletto which I bought when I was 16, went from this:-

Image

To this:-

Image

Image

Image

But after passing my driving test and while still restoring the Stiletto I drove a 1980's Triumph Dolomite 1850cc HL like the one in this pic:-

Image

Crashed that and bought a green 998cc mini.

Then got the Stiletto on the road and used that every day for around 3 years. Eventually sold it and bought this, a 1966 Ex Race Hillman Imp:-

Image

Image

Used that for a while, then took it off the road for a full rebuild, which lasted a few years before selling back to the original owner. In the mean time I was running about in a Peugeot 205 XS:-

Image

Sold the Pug and bought my first EG, a 1993 1500cc LSi:-

Image

Also ran another Peugeot 205 XS at the same time.
Then kept the Civic, sold the pug and bought another EG a 1600cc ESi as a project, which went from this:-

Image

Image

to this as it sits today:-

Image

Then sold the Blue LSi EG and bought a 2000 Citroen Xsara and most recently bought the 1992 SiR-S:-

Image

Think that's about it!!! :D Well apart from the other few Imps, Minis & Triumphs that were bought and used for a few weeks in between all that lot. 8)

Yeah, the 4 door seems to have been a lil more popular here in the states.
