Reminds me of a friend that got a city golf her parents brought her when she was studying, it was stolen the same day she got it

Red Citroën 2CV - slow, it leaned through the corners like nothing else but it was awesome!

They're still awesome

Mine was, at least until my ex-rally driver step father scavenged parts for his "racing" 2CV.

Late 70s 1.6L Audi 80. Bought it new. A really fun, driver's car with absolutely appalling fuel consumption by modern standards. Next one was a 2L Lancia Beta Berlina. Even worse fuel consumption, but even more fun to drive.

Mine was a red 1.3 Citi Shuttle. Just had new tyres and exhaust fitted when it was stolen. It had a flat battery, broken ignition and an immobiliser and they still managed to take it

Wow brings back memories - 1992 Opel Rekord CD V6 380i - until Opel spares got too expensive then BMW E36 316i and then E46 320i (2.2i S6)

 

[Psycho Pitbull]

My very first car was a silver Daihatsu Charade from 19-voetsek

 

[HapticSimian]

RWD, great twin-cam motor, disc brakes all 'round, rear-mounted gearbox... shouldn't ever have sold it.

Apart from running out of fuel twice ( ) because of a dodgy fuel gauge she didn't let me down once. I... I had a reliable old Alfa.

1977 1300, white VW Beetle, affectionately known as "Herpes, the love bug" Of "love" there was plenty, of the herpes -luckily - not so much. Neversaydie car. The only time she stopped was when the fuel ran out.
