What make was you first car?

[Devon Seagull]

My first car was a white Vauxhall Chevette 2 door hatch back. It was a P reg so I think 1976? Bought from Patcham Car Sales just of the London Road for £995 in 1984

Had the "Pulp Fiction" Honda Civic W reg........................

parked it near Hove park once and went to the ground,came back after the game and the gear knob was in the glove box,wipers put up in the air and the blades left in the boot along with the hub caps,and the lights were left on flashing...

Purchased of a mate,who happened to be playing footie nearby and they had spotted it there,it was easy to get in to........buggers!!

A crappy brown morris marina, bought in '83 a few months before I passed my test. I really disliked that car, but it was mine.

For Anglia, the one with the weird rear window.

Cost me 50 quid, if memory serves. Extra for a man walking in front with a red flag.
