First car: austen maestro. Big piece of rubbish!
Dream car: either a Land Rover Defender, Nissan Figaro or Fiat Coupe (20v turbo). The OH had a Coupe and it was superb.
Mind you, top of my list at the moment is a Triumph Street Triple. Just got to pass my test first though....! |

My first car...Morris Minor Estate, followed with a brand spanking new Ford Anglia (so proud of, and served me faithfully for many years) !!! Always loved Landrovers, and had several in more recent years......FINALLY got my dream machine (well, the OH has)...a metallic green Rangerover SE4 Vouge. Such luxury
Not new...hasten to add!! But a really super vehicle and soooo comfortable

First car was a Ford Cortina, that used to belong to my brother. What a heap of sh*t!!
I think I've got my dream car, for now - 3 litre Subaru Outback. Goes rather fast, easy to drive, very comfy, get loads of feed in the back. My other dream car would probably be a Toyota Landcruiser so I don't need to mess up my posh car with towing! |

My first car was a dark green Vauxhall Viva - F-reg (the first time around)! It was built like a tank so whenever it broke down (frequently) it was so heavy to push! It was very rusty and had great big holes in the wings which my Dad repaired with fibreglass then painted and he even painted on a gold stripe!
I'm happy with my Isuzu Trooper and even if I won the lottery I'd never buy a new car as they depreciate in value so much.

My first car was a Rover 3500SDI V8, lovely family car, till I decided to try and jump a humpback bridge with it! After I passed my test, I had a 1983 Fiat X1/9 and she still sits in the barn watching over the horses and brings a smile on my face everytime I sweep my hand across her dusty bonnet with the great times we had together. She came with a 1500 stock engine but I had a 1600 turbocharged engine fitted out of a Lancia Delta HF in 1989. Dream sports car... will have to be a Ferrari 308 GTS (carburettor version) in rosso red with a fibreglass body... circa 1978/79, tho a 1972 246GTS Dino in yellow would be most desireable, it'll be too expensive (£150K?)... hmmmm, a Porsche 924 Carerra GTS RS would'nt go amiss either...
First bike, 1980 H-D Cagiva 125 SST, dream bike H-D sportster, have 1995 883 hugger sitting in barn!
Nowadays, all I can dream of is a horsebox that makes the journey without bits falling off of it!
If I won the lotto... first I'll have to commission Olympic to build a horsebox body on a Mercedes 2629 air suspension chassis! Then put the rest aside for diesel!

My first car 1957 Chevy, my grandad bought it me to learn to drive when I lived in the USA.
Dream car sit up and beg Ford Pop with V8.
But I can't complain to much when we have a Sierra Sapphire Cosworth, 1976 Mk1 Granada, V8 Range Rover, 750 Ninja, 600 CBR and Honda 125 scooter.
So I can't complain because my OH keeps them on the road. |
