Over the years far too many to list. 40,000 gxl mk3 £700,,2 DOOR mk3s 3 cars, just take them away,,, all 3 under 50,000 miles, 3 Mk2 cortinas, didn't even pick them up, just give them to a mate, 20,000 mile 1.6 xl mk3, even filled it with petrol for me, happy for me to have it as long as it wasn't raced, 2000e still had the plastic cover on the seats and doors given to me by a very well known banger racer complete with 2 new genuine front wings for the price of a drink, and there's loads more 2.0 gls 28,000 miles, just take it away,, there was a time when I was paid to take them away,, 15 sets of new mk3 front wings£50,, the list is endless,

Ok it's not a Cortina or even a car but having been a fan Gary Numan I always wanted to be a Numanoid!

In 1989 I bought a Moog Polymoog 280a synthesizer with the Poly pedals and chrome legs in Bexhill-on-sea for £25, not working, my mate a radar tech at Gatwick got the mighty Moog up and running and now it sits with all of my other Analogue Synths which I bought years ago in the hall of profit.

I will never sell them as they are apart of my history!

18 to date, including drum machines.

Nice. In about 1984 I had the offer of a Korg analogue synth - looking on t'internet I think it was a Mono/Poly, complete with wooden sides. I think I could have had it for £20, but instead bought some dodgy Casio digital keyboard

I bought a mint Roland Jupiter 6 poly synth in the late eighties from the keyboard player from band The Cutting Crew (I just died in your arms tonight) and sold it not long after as the 6th note would drift out of tune.

The Jupiter 6 is now recognized as one of the best synths by Roland, what a Muppet!

Years ago i found an old small toy looking synth at the local charity shop for a fiver, bought it on a whim.

When i got back at home i googled the thing and it turns out that EDP Wasp is quite a collectible synth :thumbup:

 

Changed few crusty pots and sold it to a mate of mine at cost.
