It was my first car and it stood me well, light and zippy...ok, it was mushroom in colour and it wouldnt indicate to the right but it had the spirito de la italiano!

First cars are special, anyway! What counts as your first car? The one you learned in with an instructor? The one you learned in with your parents? The one you drove for the first time on your own after passing? Or your first car that you actually owned (even if it was a present and you had to share with your twin brother?!) I would go with the last option. It was and still is a blue Ford Fiesta. I used to hate blue, but I'm over it now. It's a good car. It's done me proud. Sadly I cannot afford to run it anymore, which is partly why my brother looks after it (her) in Norwich. Whilst they are by no means my favourite car, they are equally not my least favourite.

Though, technically speaking i owned my siblings car first (a red fiat).However, yes the one you own and treasure to the point that you adore its plastic fantastic interior, the slight damp odour and think about the day it was towed away for scrap. Why is a car a 'she' ? Oh definately the first car you own, well, perhaps the one that your father has gone 50/50 with you!
