Your first car

[Jamirecluse]

Probably been done a hundred times but who cares.

I'll start-

Vauxhall Corsa 1.0 12v
Rusty around the edges, jammed passenger door and whiney engine.Still a great wee car though.

I'm sure there are a lot more interesting ones out there so go ahead.

MGB Roadster (that was older than me).

350 quid fully comprehensive to insure in the first year.

1983 Mocha brown vauxhall nova 1.0 with beige check interior. I bought it in 1990. Really looked like a piece of dog st on wheels.

I have a lovely bronze (rust coloured) Cortina Mk3, GYX 287J i believe. (very early Cortina Mk3 1972). It was riddled with rust and i paid £35 for it.

Ford Cortina MK2 1.3 ......the last word in performance.......or not.

Corsa 'sting' 1.0 12v chavved up

Taught me what 'lift off oversteer' was......straight down a ditch

After that I grew up considerably!
