My first car was a split screen Morris Minor convertible Reg. LBT 65.
When that hit the dust, I had an A30 with handle but my pride and joy came next an Austin Healey Frog Eye Sprite Reg. 741 RBH. She had twin SU’s with a 4 branch manifold, a terrific car with character, I drove all over the country in her, those were the days when driving was sheer pleasure, many happy memories.
If any one knows someone with a frog eye, I have a new door which I had made and never got a chance to use.
Hillman Imp here too it was a burgundy sort of maroon type colour:)
Your first automobile
What was your first car?
What do you drive now?
My first care was a 1960 Pontiac Parisienne.
I am not driving now. I sold my car to my brother. Much too early, I should have kept it.

Hey Bruce, thanks for that link. I didn’t realize it was already on the forum. I will look through it…
By the way, how did you find that so fast, is there a trick to finding something so I don’t post again?
You just have to read all 45,200 threads but Bruce is a fast reader. 
Stop teasing me now Longdogs, hahaha

My first car was a sunbeam Alpine …
Fiat 850 Sport Coupe 2plus2, 1973, bought when I was in Germany, my wife and I did most of Europe in that little motor luggage on the back seat, the boot only big enough for the sandwiches.
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.
I only learned to drive 10 years ago so mine was a 1litre corsa
They never called those FA Victors did they?
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
