Ford Orion Ghia I....Silver, bought it from a vicar for £475. At the time everyone who could afford the insurance had the XR3I. I couldn't so had the XR3I with a boot, which it was. I really liked them and had 4 in my first few years on the road. First non-Ford was a metro GTI..Terrible car!

As odd as it sounds, it’s a tough one to define my first car.

First car I regularly use to drive was my dads Ford Sierra 1.8 LX (rear wheel drive, manual, no power steering!)
The first car I owned (but technically it was bought for me): Rover 214 (with beige interior, so cool!)
The first car I bought with my own money: a Renault 19 for a tenner (only bought it because it was a tenner - and did one journey in it (London to manc), and then gave it away to a mate for free.
The first car I bought myself and actually owned for a while: Ford Puma 1.7 (that was a fun car - be it a bit femine)

My first car was a 1963 Reliant Regal saloon , I went all over in that car always with my full bike licence holding mate in the passenger seat, even had it on two wheels and scraped the front of the car on the road on both sides , so yes it was a lucky escape

, all three others in the car still speak to me and I nearly found out the colour of adrenalin was brown

my first "proper" car was Ford Cortina 1963 vintage when I got my full licence at 18
