Jay762 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Mk 1 Astra 1.2 in baby poo beige - resprayed it black, was years ahead of its time as the engine used to cut out when leaving the motor way or approaching lights, never did find out why but did go through x2 starter motors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirspidey Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 This thread is making me laugh at all your modern cars as your firsts. My first car was a red 1979 cortina 1.6L. But we all had to start somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattb Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Vauxhall Corsa B 1.2 vegas. As far as I can tell the vegas meant a rev counter and different cloth trim! Happy days walking in to the local garage and asking what can I do to make it go faster... the mechanics face said it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkeyeLawrence Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Technically a 1997 impreza sport 2.0- got it aged 14 for just under £500, mainly to tinker with and learn about cars! Was lucky enough to buy a few days provisional insurance on this (hence L plates) but was too expensive to insure when I passed... The first car I drove on the road on my own answer is very boring: a 1.0 corsa (awful thing) Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris1978 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 First car was a B reg ford Fiesta. It was a 0.9 litre engine and had done 100k. This was when I passed my test at 17. It was all I could afford and was more rust than car. It fell to pieces about 6 months after I bought it and was replaced with an Austin Metro 1.3. I crashed this about 3 times much to the annoyance of my Dad. I saw one on eBay the other day and someone wanted 6k for it ! Had loads of cars since, even had an Evo at one point :0) ....
