GIS'd and found a pic, and holy shit, that's my old truck! Same color and everything, just zero rust :)

lol! i'll be sure to tell my dad... he'll feel vindicated after all the shit we gave him because of that lame car. (though i do have to say that it looks cuter in this picture than i remember it looking then.)

A Cirtoed 2CV. I drove it into a wall on my 1st driving lesson!

Cirtoed? Citroen!

Cirtoed :) That gave me all kinds of Wind in the Willows flashbacks.

When googling for an image, the Volkswagen Fastback should've been my first one.

hello, ILCars ... been meaning to post here for a couple of weeks.

Volkswagen Dasher

WTF is this, then? a cut-down scirocco? a two-door passat?

there's a whole thread in the differences between UK and US models. but for now it can wait.

anyway: first car i ever drove was a 1986 nissan (or were they still datsun? no, surely not) bluebird, like this

but with a boot, or like this:

but without anything interesting about it.

i was 14. i learned to drive properly in a proton saga:

and a 1991 nissan micra:

the latter of which is still on the road and has, somehow, just been sold by my father-in-law for 250 of your earth quid. which astonishes me.
