Hmmm, here goes:
My first Stiletto 1965 Singer Chamois (Hilly) 1968 Imp Californian (Emily) 1967 Imp Californain (Archie) - bought and sold three times!! 1971 Hillman Husky (the only car I ever cried after selling) 1973 Cortina Mk3 2000GT (reg'd TY T1M) damn!!!!!!! 1983 Mazda 323 1500GT (KWICK) 1984 MG Maestro 2.0 EFI (Brodie Britain Racing tuned - 300+bhp!)
I have just bought back my first Stiletto so all's good there.
The only other car I regret selling was a Renault 11 1.7 GTX, that had a sticking caliper on the front. I sold it to a fella who decided to ignore my advice about fixing it up first... he drove it around until the front brack disk cracked and then shattered, causing the car to flip and he fell down a 60ft drop.... he stayed in hospital some time. I still feel responsible for that one.....

Just cos something is good for you doesn't mean its good for everyone - for example Marmite does not make good Dog Food.

I'm regretting selling my stupidly solid 73 VW squareback right now, as the guy who bought it off me last august came round on sunday to collect the rear seat that I'd finally found in my parents shed and he was telling me how close to being finished it is and what colour it's going be etc......cos I really needed to hear that it's going to be just like I wanted it.......Audi TT dark grey paint with Ox blood red interior, fat chrome and possibly running BRM four spokes

I regret selling my G40... i've just had a mail from the guy who bought it and shipped it to ireland, basically it immediately got taken into a workshop, stripped and repainted, everything mehanical that wasn't less than a year old has been renewed, new wheels.... i'm so god damn jealous but i didn't have the cash to do it myself And my 1973 Fastback - sold to Ian from Dubscene - solid as you like, uber-solid, like brand-new solid. And as reliable too, dead comfy for cruising with Audi 80 seats in it. Lots of good times in that motor.

I don't regret much - I've always got my moneys worth!
Maybe giving my VW1302S away for nothing, weeks after losing my virginity in it...... ;D
