Re: Your very first car.
One of these in this colour, a Vauxhall Cavalier Mk.1, 1981.The Vauxhall paintshop must have opened a tube of Smarties as they came in bright green, orange, pale blue, red, yellow and brown.
Enjoyed it as a first car though the car I learned to drive in was my dad's Vauxhall Viva.

We used to go to Bridlington every weekend in it to our caravan at Sewerby. Took absolutely ages!

The first few years of life, shape our future.
Learning our times tables and the alphabet for example.

Re: Your very first car.
All these reg numbers would be worth a fortune.My grandad always said I could have his Fird Anglia when he popped his clogs as I'd always helped (hindered...just a 6 year old helping grandad).
When he died in 2001 he still owned it (collecting dust in his garage) but....did I get it?
No....my uncle made sure his son got it.
I wonder how much that reg us wirth now and what car it's on....my cousin sold it straight away.
