Everyones will always remember thier fist car. In my opinion it holds a special place in my heart. When i turned 16 my parents bought be a 2011 jeep grand cherokee str8. This is one very special car to me because it represents not just transportation but freedom and growing up. When i was young i could only dreem about driving( i did that allot). So what was your first car,And how has it affected your life. Did you like the car... and do you still have it? i would love to hear some stories!

havnt had my 1st yet. havnt even past my test. i started learning 3 years ago when i was 17 but i had to get my own place so i couldnt afford to carry on learning. right now insurance for new drivers is around £2500 a year. the cheapest ive seen is £2000 so the price has gone right up compared to a few years ago. my partners going to be doing his driving test in a couple of weeks but i dont know how were going to afford the insurance when we get a car.

My first car was like a tank - or at least I thought so. It was a 1974 Chevy Malibu, 2 door. It was a great first car since it took a beating and kept on ticking. lol.

I did not have a first car just for my own use, but i learn to drive when i was 14 years old and it was amazing. For me it was in one of the worst car of history ( the old Suzuki Vitara), but I enjoy a lot the freedom that gave me. Now I use to be drive a Mitsubishi pick up, but my dream it's to drive my fathers car: a Subaru Impreza WRX of 2003 (for me the best car of the last years of WRC)

My first car was a Dacia 1300 from 1985. It was a good car but a very old one. I had to repair it all the time. I don't have it anymore. I sold it years ago.

Well, the first car I had was a used toyota Hardtop. I bought it because it was cheap. I knew it consumed a lot fo gasoline but I was happy to have it. The car was with me for over 10 years until I finally sold it.

My first car is 2004 Mitsubishi Grandia. My mom bought me this car when I was 18 years old. I remember in that time I still learn how to drive.. I love my car very much.. I wake up early to wash my car every morning.. Till one day I fall down when I climb up to wash my car's roof, my mom said she will change the car so that I don't need to climb when I wash my car.. I sold the car and I change it become Honda Jazz.. when I sold my Grandia, I feel so sad.. until now, I still miss it.. so sad when I think of it again... :(

Hello, My first car that I learned to drive in was white Toyota corralla. I think it like 1980. It was small and compact. I am 5' so it was easy to see out of it. It was a fun car to drive and durable until I had accident. It kept me safe since I was hit sideways head on. Not my fault. The car was total because I was going slow looking for a house number the lady coming up the hill was going like 45 miles per hour. Thanks Unique16

I took a driver's license at the age of 20 years. Openly saying it does not live in a family "rich" just patented, was driving the car of my father, who was an old Ford Fiesta 1.1 dated 1986. With that car, I did a lot of practice. I must say that initially the desire to drive, it was great, then with the passage of time, has waned. However, that carI can not certainly forget. But today in the family, we have another Ford Fiesta (2000) full optional and I think that this is the most comfortable car we have ever had in life. Let's hope it lasts!

My first car was Toyota Paseo 1994 and I loved it. I kept the car for almost 10 years and sold to my sister for $1000. It had very low mileage, less then 40.000. I only used the car to go school. I only spent $10 for gas. I wish I could do the same today with my Nissan Truck.
