Freefall Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 My first was a Vauxhall Nova, one day the police pulled me over (because of a brake light that was out) they then done me for about 7 diffrent things wrong with my car, including wheels that were to big to fit under my wheel arches, a diffrent sized spare wheel, they then called for another police car to come along, then another with some guy to check if they needed to tow it away and destroy it, they let me drive it home in the end then baned me from driving it till i got everything repaired, i gave it away for free in the end Heres a picture for those who dont know what a navo looks like, this isent mine, this one is far newer than mine, mine had scraps all over it, a coat hanger (in the shape of a love heart) for an areal and things growing on the outside of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Opel Corsa D". I've seen a german corsa like my nova in England with its opel and corse badges, we have that corsa of yours here in England and now call it a corsa aswell. A friend went to look at an 'exclusive' version of the a corsa here, they told him it would be unique as they were only making 300 cars with all the sporty and luxuary upgrades it has and and that they dident have many left to sell, thinking that it was a deal of a life time he paid alot of money for it. After he had it about a week he found they were selling more of his car and for cheaper!! he angryly phoned them up and got told that they removed the 'exclusive' badge from the side of the car and can sell it as its not the same as his, he got ripped off big time!

Sir Clinksalot Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 ^ I cannot picture you in a Sienna ... or a BMW for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted April 8, 2005 Author Share Posted April 8, 2005 ^ The BMW was my "Hollywood Producer" car when I was working at MGM. I grew out of that phase REAL quick, thankfully! --Robb "I quickly realized how STUPID all these *L.A.* people looked and it wasn't until two years later that I was able to get rid of it!"

disneyfan1313 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 My first car was a 1977 MGB Convertible. It was rebuilt and in pretty good condition. I learned how to drive on this car with NO AC (in s. florida), a non-working convertible top, stick shift, no power anything. Needless to say - I can drive *anything* now! I then got a geo metro (ugh) and then shared a Dodge Neon with my g/f for a number of years until I got my Honda Civic EX in 2001 which I still have and love!

Mind Eraser Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 My first car was a hand-me-down from my mom. It was a blue/green Saturn. I thought I was "the sh*t" because my car had a sunroof, leather interior, and a phone - but in the end, I was still driving around in a Saturn, lol. Now I drive a 1998 red Civic EX (which I bought in 2001) I want a dark grey Mini Cooper convertible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebl Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 My first car was a 1975 Olds Cutlass Salon that I got used in August 1978. Next, I bought a brand new 1983 Toyota Supra in March 1983 which I drove till February 2002 when I bought my 2002 Honda CR-V. The CR-V is great. I'd post a picture, but y'all know what they look like. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegasCoasterGirl Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I had a 89' Nissan. It was a death trap of a car too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike541x Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 2002 Acura RSX. First car I was able to buy with my own money. I miss it, especially since it was a stick shift, so bored of driving an automatic now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seddy Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Mine was a white 2000 Pontiac Sunfire. I wasn't lucky enough to get a car at Graduation like several of my other family members so in 2006 when I got my raise at my job with Midwest Airlines, I was finally able to go and put a down payment on my first car. Unfortunately a year later I lost my job and it was reposessed. Now I have that ish on my credit BUT 2014 makes the 7th year so hopefully it will go away soon.

yankeeman311 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 My first (and only) car was a 2011 Nissan Altima that at the time was brand new. Managed to keep the new car smell for a long time and arguably might still have it. All in all it's been a nice car so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arby Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 My first car was a 1972 Ford Gran Torino. That car would fly but sucked some gas, probably due to my driving style (at the time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbomser Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 First car was a 2000 Saturn LS2. What a POS! Got rid of it in July of 2012 when I got my new job and upgraded to a 2013 Honda CR-V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
