Not my own car but I do wonder where my son's first car is now, he bought himself an old Mini (a proper one) which was converted so needed an additive every time he put fuel in it, it had only got 18,000 miles on the clock when he bought it, he kept it a year before selling it on for a small profit. Sadly, at the time he was working twilight shifts and finishing at 2am, with no aircon and no heated screen he found the drive home difficult in the colder months so decided to buy something more modern and we had nowhere to store the old girl so she went off to a new home. She was bought by a Mini enthusiast who was going to get her back to showroom condition and take her to shows, I still keep an eye out for her.

Yes!
I have been on MOT check to type in the reg of my old cars, checking they are taxed and have an up to date MOT Blush.

My very first car, a proper mini but bought when there were loads on the road in the 1980’s. The other car is my friends, a Citroen 2CV and it’s weird umbrella gear system.

I always wanted a Citroen 2CV.
Another unfulfilled dream. Smile

Yeah, I thought I was the only one. I loved our i20 but we had to get rid of it as it only had 3 doors and the kids were getting squashed in the back. It went to a young lad who hadn’t yet passed his test and was buying it using an inheritance and his dad drove it home. She was called Holly as we bought her at Christmas. Hope she’s ok 👍
