What was your first car? (not toy)

[Stoo82]

A Renult 11. She was a buit. Loved the fact it had a manual choke. Seats where the sofest I've ever had which made the suspension seem amazing.

Had an M Reg. 850cc Mini as my first car, however had been riding bikes for a few years before so had a Suzuki GS-1000E at the same time.
So my bike had a bigger engine than my car!

White Fiat Uno. D-red, purchased for £1,750 off a blonde sauce-pot near Boundary Road. Lovely little car but I got rid of it after an incident in a Parisian underpass

As a young lad just passed his test I had a red Ford Corsair 2000E, 2 litre V4 'MUF 49'. Cost £450 and insurance nearly that I think. Roomy heavy with brakes not up to the job, smack it twice. Thank god I never took it the Goldstone far too dangerous.

Austin A35

Same as this but not nearly as shiny. I believe it was an R reg with the R at the end.

Claude. Rescued from a toilet block in London. Valiant and lasted for six years, but finally gave out. He was a lovely old puss.

[Boroseagull]

Morris Minor 850cc, side valve, split windscreen, SLY 751, black [of course], 0 - 60 mph, eventually.

 

[BlockDpete]

One of these. Got me to the Lake District and back, despite the jokes

 

[Garage_Doors]

Mk1 Escort just like this one

 

[eastlondonseagull]

Mini Special, 1098cc, in Metallic Rose. Vinyl roof. Only 2,500 of them were made back in 1979 - loved that motor.

This pic isn't of my actual car, but it is the same model / colour etc...
