Your First Car


Recommended Posts

First car was a 1989 Peugeot 205 1.8 diesel. Top speed was supposed to be just over 90 but managed to get 100 out of it lol.

Now got a 53 plate Peugeot 206 1.4 diesel. Done 110 in that, then someone got in my way lol.

A Vauhall Chevette 3dr hatchback, which my old man cristened 'the clockwork orange' - when I sold it to a 'mechanic' he apparently told a mate of mine that "you can pour oil in the top n hear it splashing outta the bottom"

It was never raced or rallied tho :whistle:

Mine was a 1987 Mini 1000, with a MG Metro 1275cc 75bhp engine, which i forgot to tell the insurance about :whistle:

That was back in 1991 when I was 17 and could get away with that sort of thing.

Was a quick car, no weight and a powerfull-ish engine made it lots of fun. Had it for 2 years then sold it to a stoner who managed to roll it a week after I sold him it.

And anyone who's ever driven a original Mini will know how difficult it is to roll one of those things.

My first car was a 1972 Mark 3 Ford Cortina GT, a very nice car to drive. What I really wanted was a Mark 2 Lotus Cortina, but couldn't afford the $15,000 the guy wanted back in 1986. Took it for a test drive, it was insanely fast.

89 ford tarus. I rear ended my dad the day I went to get my license. He wasn't too happy to say the least.

Now I have a '99 Pontiac Grand am. It'll do 100 easy. Top speed is about 106 because of that stupid governor.

my first car was an 84 ford ranger two seater, four banger. man what a POS, one mouth after i bought it i had to rebuild the engine (2.3). but after that rebuild she ran like a trooper, far from a speed demon but very reliable. now i was hoping that it would have been good on gas but no way. it had 85 HP yet it chuged gas just like a V-8.
