@rolex4me she must have really loved you from the start seeing that beautiful car picking her up. Also the stud that got out of the car wearing a genuine fake watch . Congrats to you and the wife

 

[rolex4me]

Talking about first cars now? Ok, excluding the ones I used before having my own, mine was like this one: Renault 5 "supercinque"

I have the feeling that all of our FIRST cars were NOT pussy magnets

Well, the stallion didn't have a fake watch back then (but something similar to a stallion )
On the second point, I'm not entirely sure whether she was (is) so in love with me or whether she was just desperate

Not my actual car but identical. Loved it. Saved me from my own stupidity a few times and I rewarded it by blowing it up. (Oil starvation I think)

Damn… perfect 20/20.

What is that ???

 

[rolex4me]

Nicht mein echtes Auto, aber identisch. Ich war begeistert. Es hat mich ein paar Mal vor meiner eigenen Dummheit gerettet und ich habe es belohnt, indem ich es in die Luft gejagt habe. (Ölmangel, glaube ich)

Das Symbol auf dem Kühlergrill erinnert mich an etwas, ich komme nur nicht dahinter, an was?

That’s a Mini before rebranding

I was already aware of that , (mini)
Only this symbol on the radiator grill triggers me a little

Mine was a Fiat Strada.

Brace yourself: you know what the commercial name of this fiat was in Italy? Ritmo.

I didn't know that! I had a Fiat 126 after this as well, but that didn't last long

Gonna guess you are appx 20 years old. That would make you a triple 20, 20/20/20

 

[galevin]

Been retired for ten years. Yep all us old guys have zero, zippity, no points.

Lol. Make that 40/20/20. Proud to say I’ve seen/experienced those things, wouldn’t change it for anything else.

Technically my first car was a black VW Beetle. I was 15 it cost £40 and my father nearly hit the roof when that rolled into the driveway. It actually still exists. I sold it to a friend of mine and he turned it into a beach buggy and it is in one of his sheds.





My first road legal car when I had a driving license was a Nissan Cherry, complete with sunroof and go faster stripes. To this day I favor tan or beige colored interiors because of the memories of this car. The one in this picture is in much better condition than mine was Oh a fun fact you can fit 12 people into a Nissan Cherry. Your wheel arches rub on your tyres when you go around corners but it still drives.

My first car was a red 1977 Toyota Corolla Liftback....gifted from my grandfather in 1980. Put over 250K miles on that car. Some good times in that car!

 

[ImLateAgain]

Goose egg!

 

[oldtools]

My first car was a 48 Jeep. Same color as this one
