my first car was a metallic light blue 1275GT mini .
I put an electric aerial on and a decent stereo but couldn't afford speakers so I had 2 hi-fi speakers from my bedroom on the back seat which weren't secured and used to fly forward when you breaked to hard.
I once had the oil filler cap come off on the M1 and it was like being in a spitfire being hit by enemy fire with oil spraying all over the windscreen.
Rolled it on the way to School one January morning. Had to catch the bus for the rest of the year with the rest of the plebs
