Re: Your very first car.

My first was a blue Ford Anglia 1965 just like the Harry Potter one bought for £50 off a mates brother. I got it when I was 17 after passing my test.

After that messed round for a few months in a red Hillman Imp.

But the next one was the best. An F series Vauxhall Victor. It was given to me by my Uncle in Belgium. He brought it over for me. Had to be re registered so was an L reg.
It had that swept back windscreen,3 gears column change, left hand drive, bench seats and lots of chrome to polish.

Re: Your very first car.

I didn't learn to drive till I was 34. My first car was a Mk2 Ford Escort estate
I learned about car mechanics on that car, working my way up from checking the oil to repairing the brakes, & changing the gearbox
