1st car i drove was a 106 1.5D and then i bought a 205xs 1.4 and now have a classic scoob.
I didnt realise till just the other day how much fun the 106 was, i used to the think it was ****, but having had another go after being away from it for 5 years it was great fun with the shawdy handling.

The first car I drove was my Mum's Nissan Bluebird 
and occaisonally my Dad's Volvo T5 when they were on holiday! 
The first car I actually bought was an MGB that I ran into the ground, the first expensive car I bought was the Impreza.
I'm now driving a Jeep 5.7l HEMI Grand Cherokee, as I am in Texas and that's what you do in Texas! It handles like trifle, but luckily there are no bends, and it is pretty good in a straight line.

1977 Ford Cortina 2.3 V6 Ghia, never could get the bugger insured though so i sold it again.
Got based in Germany and bought a 1985 Audi Quattro. (wish i had kept her)
This isnt my old one but it looks exactly the same:
Now got the MY98 Scooby Wagon + Nissan Mirca 1.2 Topic (daily driver) and a 06 Seat Ibiza TDI for the wife.
