My first car ( and love ) a 64 herald convertible, paid £15 for it !
Moved up to a vitesse ( broke in half ! ) followed by a spity ( crashed ) then a bond equipe gt4 !
In later life an sd1 ( loved it ) ended up mini cabbing it, nearly 300 k miles with no probs ! Paid £550 for it when only five years old.
Since I've fallen in love with yanks, they were cheap to buy, very simple to repair as parts really cheap.
I'm sure I'm using the wrong thread now but would love to hear about your first cars.
