Toyota Aygo, lovely little thing. I was 34 and it was a gift from my step father, I learnt to drive in it.

I don’t think I have any photos but mine was a G reg Renault 5 GTS in tungsten grey! Ha ha! You never see those still on the road 😆
I even remember the reg

OH had a pretty new BMW 🙄
MIL thought it might help him be responsible? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It’s kind of the law to have a crap car surely?
DS just piped up that one of his friends got a BMW i1 for their birthday like this might be a thing... I laughed in his face

Brand new Hillman Minx de-luxe in June 1969. Don't wish to boast but you noticed the de-luxe bit? Motorola radio with six pre-set stations.

Yes, but in red with a black top. No winders for the windows, they just slid up or down. The indicators operated on a vacuum system. Technology at it's best!
