| What was the first car you ever owned. Posted: 6/21/2007 3:57:00 AM | A chocolate brown ,V8, HG Holden. Ran like a dream, guzzled the petrol and went like the clappers! My dad even modified it so the steering was lighter for me- damn that was a massive, heavy car. I never wanted to let it go but after a few years and a guy badgering me to sell it, I relented and he used it for illegal drag racing for years!! Apparently it was the car everyone tried to beat. | |

| What was the first car you ever owned. Posted: 6/21/2007 5:40:47 AM | | My first car was a white 1982 VH Brock Commodore. Cost me a fortune but still the fastest car I ever owned. Went like the clappers. All original and in mint condition. I wish I still had it now but had to get rid of it. | |

| What was the first car you ever owned. Posted: 6/21/2007 6:25:00 AM | My first car was an EH, that was painted metal flake midnight blue, she had her ar*e in the air, fat tyres, a sports steering wheel, and I loved her to death. Unfortunately, she got red stickered one night(had to be towed, not driven) and had 23 defaults (the cop's always exaggerate!) . I finally sold her not when the oil leaked inside her on the passenger side, all over my friends white pants, BUT not long after she caught fire outside a pizza shop in Perth Cost of car $450! Memories....Priceless | |

| What was the first car you ever owned. Posted: 6/21/2007 7:04:18 AM | Mazda 626 1984 Model - with all options - including power windows, mirrors and power steering - I thought I was a legend in my own lunch time. Used to play with the windows sometimes until 1 of them broke in the middle of Redfern when i was parking the car to meet a mate at night. We sat outside the house with a beer in 1 hand and a cricket bat each in the other as the midnight BBQ cooked away. Yes she was called Black Beauty and was a manual - so for a 2.2l she was gutsy too.
Best fun I have ever had was a Jeep Wrangler I had as a work car (it was the last one available). No carpark that closed after midnight could ever keep me in and and those traffic jams were never an issue when i could see 20 cars ahead of me. No room, loved petrol and could not carry a loaf of bread in the back - but she looked like alot of fun and it was a freebie so all good fun for me to enjoy. | |

| What was the first car you ever owned. Posted: 6/21/2007 8:59:59 AM | possibly because of thier shape. some cars just have nice definable lines that give them that "something", a" smooth" ride when driven respectably,a certain personality "unique" to that car, i can relate this to women as well. hmmm, maybe i need a classic woman! any EH type women out there? | |

The ol' orange and white Datsun 180B, went well on sand dunes
Me too!! I had an old Orange 180B Datsun SSS. It was the sport coupe version - only two doors. Although mine had a black vinyl roof - not the white one. Classy.
I used to drive it up and down the Esplanade on the Gold Coast thinking I was SO cool. In hindsight, I was a complete idiot, but I loved that car.  | |
