Firt car to own was a green Fiat 127.....which the ex later crashed.

First car I drove was my brothers black Morris Minor..loaded some of the brothers and sisters into it decided to take them for a spin around our large back garden I was about 13,the dog took chase after us and as I swerved to avoid him...hitting the ditch,could have killed us all doh

My one and only crash...gave up driving till I was 21 ...innocent laugh

In response to: can you remember the 1st car u've owned?

bought my 1st car when i was 16, it was an 1.8 opel manta gte, was washing nd polising it for nearly 12months before i was "officialy" allowed to drive it on a public road

1990 Toyota starlet had it 6 years. Was driving back from dublin 2 years ago and saw some guy driving it, couldnt believe it was still on the road.

they were a tight fit alright but boy did we ave sum fun with em, the yard me boss had couldn't cope with the amount of cherry's that were comin in so he rented a 10acre field next to it from a farmer ......... there were 6 of us young lads working there so as ya can imagine it didn't take long for the field to be scattered with wrecked nissan cherry's after we had demolition races every evening after work, its amazing actually thinking back that none of us got killed or seriously injured laugh laugh
