Would you have your first car back?
Discussion
If someone offered you your first car back, and you had space for it, would you have it back for the nostalgia?
My first car (I'm only on my 2nd) was sold to my sisters boyfriend a year ago. I sat in it for the first time in a year yesterday. The smell was the first thing that was familliar. A bit like when you go back to your old school, years later and instantly remember all the things you did.
Next was how spongy but comfy the seats were. The astra has quite hard seats that give you back ache after more than half an hour..
I think i'd definitely have it back if I had space. It would probably need some bodywork for the rust though.

r.Yep - mk1 Fiesta with a set of sporty wheels on it and a cannibalistic tape player! Only a 1.1, but get it out into the lanes and leave it in third and it felt like you were doing about 90!
Great little car. If anything went wrong or fell off it was just a trip to the breakers for some spares, not to some computer boffin to reprogramme it!

Not if I could avoid it. 1968 Austin 1100. Had an annoying habit of refusing to start. This could be rectified by opening the boot and hitting the fuel pump with a hammer! The last time I saw it the sub frame was about to collapse. I think it went to the great scrapyard in the sky C1979.
