Regrets. The car you wish you hadn't sold.

Not sure if this thread has been done before
What is the car that you've sold and have regretted selling ever since?

I have a couple.
1. My red 80 Quattro restoration project which I sold when I got ill 2 1/2 years ago.

2. My black VW Golf Rallye.

btw, where did your 80q project end up?

not seen anything of it on here since it went. Hope it went to a good home and finished to how she should be.

Most things I sold at the right time for the right reasons, so although I miss them, there's no regrets for most of them. There's a few that went before I should have done though and they're the ones I regret.

Skoda Estelle (swapped it fora Riva.... big mistake)
Jetta GTI 16v (didn't realise what I had at the time so it got scrapped over a leaky water pump housing, **** knows what it'd be worth now)
AX GT (by the time we'd fixed everyhing, I was pissed off with it)
Volvo 960 24v Executive (didn't sell it as such, my mate crashed it)
Reliant Kitten (nitrous has its downsides, especcially with alloy engines)
Bedford Rascal (pure comedy until my dad blew it up)
