My first car!!

My first car was a VW bug. It was new, but it had been wrecked so it was really cheap! It wasn't 57 years ago, but it was a long time ago. Almost 40 years ago!

Hiya chem, Our first best Car was a Ford Cortina yellow gold with a Black Roof and it cost us 500 quid then. Apart from the hole in the Radiator which was minimal on our first Journey it got repaired. It was the best Car I have ever known to date. It took us back and forwards to Llangollen North Wales where we both used to work in the Chain Bridge Hotel. Perhaps you know that Hotel. Anyway it was a very reliable Car and withstood all the heavy Weather Blizzards the lot. I have never liked Ford Cars really since then. This was the best model ever. My Husband sold it much to my disgust. I love Towyn by the way I am really potty about Wales and no one believes me because I live here you know. They seem to think that I should like Spain much better. I would love to be able to go back and live in Wales if I could. I love the red brick Houses there and the People. blwyddyn newydd dda, Feliz Año Nuevo 2011. Happy New Year in Welsh and Spanish toma ya. xxx

my first car that i really bought by myself by using my own hard-earned money is in 2005... that was when i got married with my hubby... it was a toyota corolla altis hatchback manual... and i can still remember it... but if you are talking about my very first car from my childhood, that had to be my 4-wheel bicycle as my parents never bought me a toy car when i was a child... take care and have a nice day...

I do remember those toy cars being around when I was a kid but I don't think I ever had one but I did play with friends that had one and it was really cool. Now my first actual car was a 76 Chev Chevette. It was a run down little car but it worked for me while I had worked to save for a decent one. In other words, it ran well enough for me till I could afford something more trust worthy. lol

ROFLMAO! Hilarious! I never had a pedal car - but I did have a tricycle with a boot in it! That was around that time too so does that count?

A red pedal car very much in the sixties style of racing car. Red, single back seat only. Around 44 years ago. First motorised one? Triumph Toledo 1300. Light blue with square front spotlights. Coast around £560 in 1982(?). PUE741M. If I have not mentioned before, I have mow been in the new job three days! Happy New Year.

my brother had a red peddle car, but I think my first one was a 1972 Ford Maverick, graduation gift from my folks

I never had one of those awesome convertibles when I was young. I had to wait until I was 22 before I got my first car. It was a Datsun 510. A four-year-old car that I paid $2,000.00 for. In the two years that I owned it, I put another $2,000.00 into it because it kept falling apart. I had bought a lemon... my very first car was the worst experience I've ever had with any vehicle! I remember hearing the traffic report on the radio while I was on my way home from work one day. On this report, they announced a vehicle that was blocking two lanes, east-bound on Northern Parkway. THAT WAS ME! I had been changing lanes when my car decided it just didn't want to budge another inch so I was half in one lane, half in another, and blocking both lanes. Luckily, that road had three lanes so traffic was able to go around me and around me they sure went. NO ONE stopped to ask if they could help in any way. Typical. Very sad, too. Luckily I was able to get it started after about five or so minutes. It wasn't much after that when I had had enough and went to buy a new car, after first stopping by the dealership where I bought this lemon and finding the salesman who sold it to me. I chewed his butt out! Right in front of another potential customer, too! I didn't care who heard me. I was pretty well pissed! Not only did this car need towing 15 times in the two years that I had it but it had come with an extremely bald spare tire... bald down to the canvas! Yes, this salesman took advantage of my naivety (or my total ignorance of shady salesmen) and sold a car that should have gone to the junk heap! I'd love to forget about that car completely one of these days. My SECOND car, now, that was a bright yellow Ford Mustang Ghia, the best car I've ever had. Everyone said "That car is so YOU!" and it was. I loved that car but, once kids started coming into my life, I had to have a more sensible car with 4 doors and room for tons of groceries. I'd get another Mustang but I wouldn't be able to get out of it once I was in... those bucket seats are murder on old bodies.

Ahahah that is so cool. I saw in our family album that i was riding in a car too with my brother on the driver's seat! I'm not sure if that car was ours or maybe it was just borrowed because at that time, we couldn't afford that kind of toy. I wish we could all have a blast from the past and see how life was then. I am happy to see that photo of yours lol!

I am not rich, but I'm just a simple person who does not have more wealth and I also do not own a car, let alone to remember my first car, I do not have it. but I have a wealth of clean and pure heart that can make my life rich.
