The only thing I can remember is that it was black,but then I was only six at the time.
My first car (other than the twoc when I was six) was a dark green  (and just as much brown rust)HB Viva.

My first ever drive, at about age 13, was one of these, up and down my granddad's drive (he was an instructor at the time):



Same colour and it was a 1978 1100S. Years later it became mine.. it did not help me achieve this:

[Marks DTM Calib]

My driving instructors car was a Belmont Tiffany which I passed my test in......which was a big car for a driving school in the days of Nova's, Micra's and Fiestas

First drive was an old Chevette on a friends farm (they had an old air strip with side taxi ways!).

Also drove an Auto Granada Scorpio and an Escort Van around the hotel car park where I worked as a boy.

First vehicle I ever drove was an very old Fordson (Major ?), once I showed i could handle that I was allowed to use the Land Rover (series 1 ??). I well remember being allowed to use the landie to go back to the house to get the evening meals/drinks in the summer .. haymaking went on until it was too dark to see !!

Passed my test in an Austin 1100 5 weeks after my 17th Birthday, and purchased my first car a week later ... a 1950 Morris Minor,  918 cc sidevalve engine, cost me £50...  , it was a year older than me !!!

Lost count of how many I've had since then ... perhaps I should try and work itout one day ...

[YZ250]

Passed my test in my Dads Austin Maxi but my first drives were in my mates brothers Mk 3 Cortina and Humber Sceptre.
In the village that I grew up in we had a disused airfield so I was lucky enough to be able to learn to drive and ride a motorbike way before I was of legal age without breaking any road laws, apart from riding them a few hundred yards home.
