Your car history and BHP

[VroomVroomClonk]

I'd struggle to remember them all, and certainly not their BHP figures. One thing I do think worth a mention is that my first car, a 1974 Hillman Imp with just 39BHP, and my current car a 2005 V70 T5 with 260BHP, both seem to average out at almost exactly 30MPG fuel consumption.
Modern technology is a wonderful thing

I can go backwards through the interesting period?

S60 Euro 3 163bhp
Fiat Sedici 1.6vvti 118bhp
Prius Plug In 95bhp plus some leccy
Prius 95bhp and the above
Subaru RB320 315bhp
Clio Trophy 198bhp
996 C4 series 1 296bhp
Honda S2000 248bhp
Boxster S 252 bhp

Keep the post going lads and lasses, I am seeing some interesting Cars appear on peoples lists, although I think I so far take the record of most Vauxhalls owned. Not sure if that is a record I really want

[Dippydog]

Can't remember most of them[if I ever knew the bhp figures at all]but
Senator A 2.5 auto 170bhp
Senator A 2.5 manual 170bhp
Senator A 3.0 auto 190bhp
Monza 3.0 auto 190bhp
Senator B 3.0 auto[12v] 190bhp
Senator B 3.0 auto[12v] 190bhp
Omega B 3.0 auto 211bhp
Omega B 3.0 auto 211bhp
V70 2.4[10v]140bhp
Volvo 960 2.9 auto 204bhp
As an aside back in the mid '70s I had a MkIII Zephyr 4[1704 cc I think-could have been 1703cc]and at the time they were talking of rationing fuel so issued a "ration" book[as it turned out rationing didn't happen]still have the book and for official purposes the Zephyr was in the 14 to 19hp class.

1967 Austin A35 - enough to get it moving.

Only the 2.0 estate. My first brand new car, good looking and fun to drive. I was looking for a used Omega to replace the Carlton but they couldn't find one to the spec I wanted, another branch of the same dealership did Mitsubishis, same price as a used Omega for a new one. The main selling point was that the dealership was handy, then we moved and the nearest dealership was miles away! Then I sold it and a dealership opened up in our town a month later, but at six years old it really wasn't wearing well so a V70 was a good move.
