A brand new Ford Cortina Estate MK5 in about 1978.

After that it was on to my first Vx, a "all new" Cavalier Hatchback in 1980. :y :y

Before this and the previous Omega, it was a Granada Scorpio (not the crap looking later one either), before that was a mk3 Granada, before that a Honda Accord, before that an MGB Roadster, which was preceded by the last Vauxhall .. A Marina Coupe 1.8 TC .... and that's gone back far enough .... for now .. :)

I spent a miserable Sunday morning under one of those yesterday. Still, I spent a miserable evening under and Omega in the evening.

Can I count Opel as non vauxhall? In my murky past I can include ownership of a 2CV! thats only one of my 40 odd previous cars for the road. i dont count breakers or banger racers.
