What Was Your First Car?

Tell us about your first set of wheels! Mine was a Ford escort really old and kept breaking down but I loved that car and called it dolly! after miss Parton!
I worked 9 til 5 to pay for it
A red fiesta. i came home one day and it had disappeared off the drive... i was a terrible learner. When i asked my folks if they knew anything about it they told me they had sold it for the safety of the community. hahaha not even a joke!
rowley1943 It got stolen before I passed my test but I replaced it with the same model and colour - pimped it up with Oakley stickers and pink striped tape....
A Ford fiesta, which I still drive today. Can't believe that they aren't making them anymore. It's been a brilliant car. I used to drive my mum's car before I got my own, I was away at uni so didn't need one at the time.
There is a bit of a theme developing here as my first was a fiesta too! I wanted a sporty XR2 but when I realised how much the insurance would cost me I had to settle for a popular.
Volkswagen Beetle with leather heated seats I absolutely loved her and crashed just 4 weeks after getting her and wrote her off
I had an F reg Nissan micra I only had it for a few months and then someone back ended me around the corner from my house and wrote it off. I was gutted at the time I loved that car
My first car was a white mini and cost me Β£400, I absolutely loved it until eventually I couldn't get in the drivers door as it used to drop down lol.
My first car was a Vauxhall Cavalier. I paid Β£250 for It and It cost me Β£500 to get It through Its MOT. I trashed It about two months after Its MOT In an underground Car Park thinking I could get In a Parking place next to a Concrete Pillar. I took the whole Passenger side out. It lived a terrible life with me behind the wheel. Oh It did not have Power Steering too, so you can only Imagine back In the day how hard they were.
My first car was a grey Toyota Corolla, this was long before they became popular. I was also 6 months pregnant when I passed my driving test in that car.
Mine was a Mini Clubman Estate. It was a rough old thing that cost very little money, saved from the scrapyard. As awful as it looked the gokart handling was amazing and it made journeys very enjoyable. I think partly due to the fear of being in such a small car had an excitement factor and the fact it just handled so beautifully. It also could transport a lot of stuff being an estate with a very rectangular storage opening. I'd like to get a classic mini again unfortunately now they are worth many thousands.
Strictly speaking a Fiat 500 which I learned to drive in (when not having lessons in the instructor's car), but after passing test it was a sapphire blue Mazda 323, oh how I loved that car. They threw in two Mazda rally jackets and I wore mine until it practically fell apart!
