A 1976 Morris Marina 1.3 Super

Not sure what was super about it :-/

Not sure this even qualifies as a car but - Reliant van, just like Del Boy's, only beige.

Horrible piece of cr4p, but I could drive it on my full bike license and it got me through my driving test first go.

First 'real' car? Mini.

Mini 1000 when I was about seven years old.

First car to drive was a 1974/M Mini 1000 with 2up 2down rally giant spots, 6x10 Weller Wheels, wooden dash, rev counter and blacked out rear lights. Finished in a rather fetching shade of Harvest Gold (just on the wrong side of light shi**y brown).

I loved that car, used to change the engine tie bar mounts almost weekly, even bent the SU carb jet by bashing it against the bulkhead when accelerating. Cost me £11 to fill to the brim.

Those were the days!!!!!

First car i owned and drove on the road... '96 citroen AX 1.5d, was a brilliant wee runner, but sold it to mate and bought it back after a few months and it was wrecked, clutch was gone and allsorts... angered me as it was always kept in 100% condition

1982 Ford Fiesta 1.1L reg no.VRC 234Y Rosso red it was my Grandads when I inherited it in 1989 with 17,000 genuine miles on it.He was the first owner and never took it out when it was dark,raining,snowy or foggy.In town he never went over 30 and out of town he never went over 40.He would stop at every roundabout and apply the hanbrake even when it was clear for miles around! We used to live in Nottingham and it took 4 hours for us to get to Skegness due to his crap driving and stopping off half way for lunch.I had it for three months and put about 3,500 miles on it and thrashed it to within an inch of its life before trading it in for a brand new 5 door fiesta in August 1989.My Grandad had passed away so thats how I inherited it.Not long after getting the keys I had a look in the boot and there were still the steel trim inserts that went on the outer rim for all four wheels still  bagged up individualy from the dealer 7 years earlier.
