White ford fiesta, 14 plate, it's a 1.1L and I bought 5 months ago. Before then, I'd aways driven work cars to get from one place to another and had gotten used to having 6 gears, my new car didn't like it when I tried to go into reverse at 70mph on the motorway the day I bought it!  |

Perfected my fingering technique in that beauty... excellent 
Found out it was used in smash and grabs about a month after I bought it. Excellent 
Smashed into the back of a Merc when I dropped my galaxy chocolate on the the to college... bent down to get it and wack. Excellent...
Sold it... 2 months later police raided our house as it was found at the beach with a dead body in the car. I filled and sent my half he never done his.
Errrm... Excellent?  |

My first car was the Nissan micra (black & silver) thought it was so cool back then in the winter of 93 ...... unfortunately spat more oil out than I could back in ended up stranded between Dublin & Cork (Emerald Isle) for the best part of three hours not a pleasant time I can assure you. Needless to say I dumped her & moved on to a Toyota  |

"A Brown Nova..A reg 
...my great-gran had one of those, when I was 6 
And? "
That's the first car I ever remember being in, it had no back seat, seat belts and she insisted on all the doors being locked while we were in it. |

'91 Mercedes E class (W124) in black.
I bought it as incentive to learn to drive. It was parked in the garage for 6 months (moved out onto the drive and back in regularly to keep things ticking over) and eventually resold for almost double what I bought it for.
I still haven't got around to learning to drive. |

"Fiat panda 4x4 was the first car a brought. B reg."
Snap (sort of)
I had a white Panda (A reg). The guy who sold to me had a red Audi Quattro looking like it was straight out of Ashes to Ashes. Grrrr.
Loved that panda |

"Green/gold renault 5... it was truly as awful as it sounds
Oooo same car as me except mine was all gold.
I thought it was great at the time "
Mine was until the rear rocker arm rusted through.... I had to break heavily to avoid another car... imagine my surprise when the rear wheel broke free and accelerated off past my drivers window while I was stationary  |
