    My dad had a huge variety of cars, mostly because they were rubbish and fell apart, and he could never afford to keep one for long. One of the earliest I can remember:

    It was definitely that colour, might have been a 3 door though.

    First one I remember being in was the Beetle belonging to the headmistress when I needed taking home after sudden and violent measles.

    First I remember the family owning was a ' 82Nissan Sunny - reg FDH 376Y (it concerns me that I can remember every single reg number we've had lol) One exactly like this:

    I can remember most of my families registrations over the years. Past telephone numbers and addresses also.

    Lol love those 80s classics.

    Just remembered the Colt wasn't the first car it was a 1981 Toyota corolla in beige that my brother bought when he passed his driving test in 1986. Then I was driven in luxury with a C reg BMW 525i beautiful car
