After a random discussion i had with some mates today i was wondering what was everyones first car? im sure everyone remembers there first taste of freedom on the roads so thought it would be nice to compare (and i dont expect to here all fords  ) i dont mind starting First Car - Austin Metro Year - D Reg (1987 i think?) Engine size - 1.3 though i think that might be closer to a 1.0 litre in modern standards.

My first car was in 1988 when I passed my test. A 1972 K Morris Mini Minor Deluxe (Wow) paid £50 for it from a mate needed a new steering rack and steering column for MOT which got done  plus a re-spray (with cans from Halfords  - taught me to spray though) red body, white roof and a matt blck bonnet (looked the bizz) and sold it six months later for £350
