[Ant]

Another Clio driver here! My first was a little L reg 1.4 RT Clio, Loved it to bits, even tho i did thrash it a bit hard sometimes!

[Moby-Dick]

1st car was a Mark II Astra 1.3L

Nissan Micra 1.0 SE

Well it was, i managed to smash the back end up by coming out to late onto a main road and being smashed into at about 75!

THinking its probs a write off, so next car might be Skoda Fabia 1.4i Comfort

i've got a Mk1 Fiesta, red with all the chrome trim n bumpers, which i cant drive yet, but my grandad gave to me over a yr ago. its now 23yrs old, he owned it from new and its done 56k ! i dont think he's driven it above 60mph either, so as soon as i pass me test, i'm away!

Drove Toyota Hi-Luxes for about 4 years before I could sit my test (13 years old till I was 17) but the first car I ever owned was a lil F reg 1300 Astra Merit....

I like those Colts, n that Fiesta sounds pretty neat as well

Mini, still going strong but I've been thinking '91 carb'd Cooper thoughts lately

Rover 25 1.4

My first car was a 1.2 Chevette with a softtop roof ( not convertible ) what a beast it was too. lol

[Angus]

Driving instructor had a Colt.

Not sure if I'd buy one, simply for that reason though.

I learnt to drive my Mum's 2CV round a field when I was 12. On my 17th birthday I got in it and drove it to school.

First car I owned was an original 1.8 Nissan Prairie which my parents gave me when they bought a new car. Great car it was, I could pretty much fit all my worldly possesions in it, it was reasonably speedy, easy to drive for such a big car, handled well thanks to knackered and very stiff suspension, and it'd even do 40mpg if I kept the speed down. In the end it just started to fall apart and I couldn't afford to fix it

Rich :¬)

my first mota was an MOT failure Talbot Samba Trio in loverly metalic blue.. me dad put it through the test for me 17th birthday.. and I passed me test 4 days later in it!!

but after a couple of smashes and a short time spent on its roof it had to go to the big scrap yard in the sky!!!

Rover Metro 1.4 CD followed by a VW Golf 1.4 Match and now I have my beast VW Golf GTI 16v.

[[GSV]Myocardial]

Datsun sunny 4 door rustheap

Made a nice £100 quid profit outa it too that was before I'd taken lessons, then a Renault 19 1.4 TXE energy in met blue (lovely little car), then a Citroen XM (smaller engined one I think, can't remember) sold the last 2 before sitting my test.

Got a 1.0L metro with no synchomesh, passed test while I had that, loved the old double de-clutching up hills in that, was my fist car that I properly drove on my own. But for someone who stands 6'3" it was a little small and I coulda done with removing the rear seats as no-one could get in them anyway
