Several more Austin 1100/1300's (another freebie)
Chrysler Sunbeam (courtesey of the parents)

3500s, quality, that mate. Not just the humdrum 3500! My dad had a J Reg 2000 TC when I was a very young child. I was gutted when it made way for his S Reg MK2 Capri ......1.6L! Even back in the late 70s as a child the Capri seemed shite. Reliable as a wood burning stove, though, to be fair. At that time my brother-in-law, then my sister's boyfriend had a succession of RS 1800, RS Mexico MK2 and several RS 2000 Mk2s. They seemed really fast and flash at the time!

Mk1 Escort Mexico at 17, that was proberly the most fun car I have owned, Why did I ever sell it :wall:

I learnt to drive in my grandads 2000 tc, complete with centre rev counter and sliding bar type speedo, ktt385e, marine drive in woolacombe is responsible for many underage driving lessons.

My first car was a 1979 fiat 127 sport, in black (and orange)

VW Jetta 1.6 CL in puke blue, loved that car went everywhere in it.

I think as far as first cars go, you don't get much better than that!

I had a mk2 Escort RS2000 as a first car too, it was black, 50,000 miles, no rust! Great car. Be worth a fortune now.

Just kidding. I had a 1979 "T" reg 2 door Allegro 1300 in satsuma orange. Not a bad car really! Scrapped due to rust.

The scary thing is its not the worst car ive had... not by a long shot!

Mine was a 1955 Daimler Conquest Century, 2 i/2 ltr straight 6 with a Wilson epicyclic gearbox and a fluid flywheel. Called a century 'cos it would do a ton. I also remember it had full harness seat belts, this at a time when they wern't fitted as standard.

Mine was an "A" reg 3dr escort est 1.3 in three shades of white

well like nigel my first car back in 1976 was a mk 1 ford escort mexico in which i had 3 engine and gearboxs, thay where a 2000cc with twin webers with the 5 speed box from a writ off new sierra, a lotus twin cam engine with a 4 speed box ,engine cast of the lotus twin cams where made at the time in cambrain casting in cwmbach aberdare, and the engine in the escort was the 1600 cc pushrod engine with webbers, crazy days, then went on to a 1305cc cooper s engine which was very fast with straightcut box with l s d jack knight i do believe, i wish i had all that today now some moneys worth

I had a 2 door V reg beige mark 2 escort 1100cc with heavily fillered rear arches,i also fitted a massive rear jack up kit to stop the 13" super slot alloys with wide tyres from rubbing the palmed in filler.it had the rally giant spot lights x 4 on flimsey little brackets an wired straight from the head light loom twisted wires together and they vibrated up and down when driven,couldn't see a thing on high beam.and finally the plastic gear change skull with red eyes??? what a plonker but thought it was the mutts at the time.
