1st car I bought myself was a Opel Corsa 1.6 GSi ... as with all Corsa drivers, I rolled it soon after.
My very 1st car I drove was an old lime green Datsun 120Y...it's still standing at home. My mates used to call it the green mamba. Hasn't been used in years. Everyone always wanted to buy it, but I'm guessing I could only sell it for R1000 now (Including a full tank of petrol.)
Restored 1963 Leyland Moris Mini, 850cc. Had a 33 litre tank put in and only filled up once ever 6 or 7 weeks.. it blew up :'( (fuel meter short and the tank burnt + car)
Mine was a OPEL ASTRA 1.8E 1994 that baby had everything. Power Steering, aircon, electric windows you name it. I told the salesman the day I bought it, that it had to do everything except make coffee. My wife does that
It was a sad day when I let her go. If I could I would gladly buy her back today. I named her NIKITA ( my eldest daughters name).
Mine was a 88 Jetta, cost me R14,000 - had it for four years and hated it, it was constantly broken - built like a tank though - traded in for a Golf 4, I didn't even think I'd get to VW to do the trade in, but she made it, wish I had a picture of her though: (
Golf 4 I also hated, I think it must be the softest car in the world.... was constantly in accidents.
