Default Car History

this month marks 10 years since I got my license and I was thinking about all the cars I've owned in that time.
So in chronological order, who can remember their car history?

1. '99 nissan micra
2. '01 Clio (sound system was worth more than car)
3. '87 ford escort
4. '98 transit
5. '88 E30 325i
6. '92 eunos roadster v special
7. '02 audi s3
8. '93 fiesta
9. '01 honda s2000 (still own this)
10. '87 saab 900
11. '98 E36 325 convertible
12. '99 golf
13. '92 eunos roadster (brought back the same one I owned a few years ago)

im sure im missing one but thats all I can think of right now. 2003 is the newest car I have ever owned
who else can remember?

It was so easy looking for M5s and S2ks since they were all manual, all the same body style, and had limited options. For the M3, most are DCT, most are not a sedan (another must), and they have a big range of options and color combos. It took a year to find mine and I am incredibly lucky to check all of the boxes I wanted.

Biggest pet peeve: when cars are listed as "Manual" but they're not. 2 pedals = not manual!
