I still have my first car, a ford Capri, it's been sat in the garage for a the last seven years. One day I'll get round to putting the old girl back on the road, it was put away when I got something newer to cover a commute. Shouldn't need too much to return it to service, it was all ok when I put it to bed! The 8 is currently car number 4 with an average of 6 to 8 years on my daily drivers before I sell them on. I generally get a good un, keep it regularly maintained (with at least 6 monthly oil swaps) and I seem to make them last. Eco friendly motoring at its best!

Fiat Tipo diseasel econobox with all the buttons and none of the soul that now does all the heavy lifting.

Ford Capri Laser: noisy, slow, thirsty, bouncy, no buttons but it always sounds like it’s REALLY trying and I can’t help but chuckle when it parps and boings along. And people of a certain age stare at it with a wistful look in their eyes that clearly says…I had one of them. And I sold it because of the kids
