My mate had tuned his Imp and painted it British racing green, it was F*cking quick the only problem was he hadn't fitted a servo to the brakes and it took forever to stop!!

i think one of the cars i drove for a pizza shop was a chevette (estate model ?) - built like a tank, lumpy gear changes, but great fun (ie, the heater AND radio worked, in winter..)

Probably a silly question but how do you write a car off twice?

had it repaired.
cost to repair it or replace it was about the same so i got it repaired

Ford Anglia 105E

My first car too! My parents bought it for me for my 18th for £150. Blue/White (obviously!), lots of chrome, with an "Arthur Daly Used Cars" sticker in the back. It had an Escort Mark I engine under the bonnet that made it great fun to drive! Rear wheel drive made it even more fun to drive in winter! Wish I still had it now!

Learnt to drive in a Skoda But after learning in that I could drive anything!
