Too many to count, my walls were plastered with car posters when I was a kid. One of my favourites was a BTCC Alfa 155 poster, signed by Tarquini. I also had a big poster of a bog-standard mkIII Fiesta, and another of a mkV Escort. Don't ask me why.

This poster was given to me in 86/87. Stayed for years above my bed. By accident, a Volvo 480 was also the first I drove on my own after passing my driving license.

I had a black & white photograph of a GT40 in the pitlane at Le Mans, I couldn't find it on google but got this: I grew up in the 90's so it was already fairly retro I guess!

Mostly Street Machine and Custom Car stuff. 'No More Mr Nice Guy' was among them:

3 walls (plus the bedroom door) were plastered with mk1 & 2 Escort pictures (mainly cut out of Classic Ford Magazine), the other wall contained RS Turbo's & Cosworths on one side of the window frame & girls on the other side of the window frame.

Will, that Xedos livery really was a turd, wasn't it? (The BTCC car itself is ace, and the still born 323) I had posters of Subaru Legacy group a cars on my walls, particularly McRae jnr's Rothmans one It was the early nineties, you could get away with giving your car an internal organ purple and vomit yellow livery back then.

For me, it was this (or one extremely similar...) It was the centrefold in an Autosport magazine that was carefully blu-tac'd into position. Still probably one of my all-time favourite cars...

Still like the car but more inclined to have the running gear and wheels for something more interesting......

My brother and I shared a room, so most of them were his. I mainly remember this classic... ...As well as some proper Athena classics as well, much like these ones hanging in the snug at Area 52I think we had the Testerossa one but a bit larger. There were always a couple of Le Mans posters as well. And for years I had a Porshce 928 with the eye-bending checkerboard interior hanging above my bed, a poster that is currently leaning up against a wall in my garage. I really should do something with it...

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.

Never had any posters on my walls as a kid / teenager (have plenty to go in the garage now though!). One of my best mates had this on his wall (now hung in his garage)... He now owns the very same car...

One of my favourites was a BTCC Alfa 155 poster, signed by Tarquini. ...and there it is, the very same poster! ;D
