1995 Nissan Maxima - Gave me trouble about every 2 to 5 months. I had it for about 5 years got it when it had 50k miles on it. The dealer gave me more than I thought they would, still amazed lol.

2007 Ford Mustang - Just bought it on Tuesday, its amazing, I love it to pieces.

My first car was a 1996 Ford Fairmont. Big hulking tank of a thing that cost me more in petrol than the repayments on the loan.

Had auto everything in it, was a decent car to drive, just cost me too much in fuel.

Big Aussie Ford! 4 Litre inline 6 cylinder engine.

The rest - in chronological order:

1978 Ford Fiesta (US)

1977 Triumph TR-7 (my 2nd favorite car)

1976 Honda Civic CVCC Hatchback

1980 Toyota Tercel 4-door

1986 Toyota Celica GT (not the GT-S)

1986 Isuzu Impulse (my favorite car)

1991 Honda Civic Hatchback

1991 Honda Accord LX 4-door

It's amazing for me to just remember these cars when I had them- the only ones I have now are the '91 Civic and the '96 Quest.

On a more serious note, first car i drove was a Jaguar XJ6 Mark II, with a leather roof, 4.2l straight 6 and first time i drove it was reversing up a hill and round a corner, all at the same time. was some experience for my first time ever in a car.... it didn't go well :p

First car i was given was an old ford fiesta barely worth a mention, though all credit to it, it got me from A to B and only ever had problems when breaking hard going round a long right hand bend, seemed to starve the engine of fuel and it would cut out :)

    • "New" Outlook has themes and colours and all sorts of visual customizations not just black and white.
    • What a bizarre statement. Why are you against users having choices? Are you against all extensions or just ad blocking? What about extensions to alter the W11 start menu to suit user preferences. Are you against those?
    • Honestly, I've been using the Lite version for a couple of months now, and it's been working well for me in my daily life. So much that I don't even miss the original version.
    • I use classic for reliability. Dark grey is vastly better than the all black or all white of new outlook.
