Whatto.. when I passed my test, didn't need to own a vehicle, I always had a R & TV firms van to take home and use, tellies and tool kit on the grass at the side of the road on club night if you were lucky, first purchase was the firms Mini Van for twenty quid (payable in lawful English money) followed by an old beat up Frogeye, from then on a succession of Lode Lanes finest, my all time favourites, my first was an old S1 86" with a V8 stuffed in it.
Had a few "2nd" vehicles, Marina Van (Marina beeing the operatve word!) a Ford Escort Diesel (a good old slogger), VW Golf (never did get VW's names) and lastly a Peugot hatch back, I hate the damn things, cars that is, can't move about in them as the seats seem to trap you in, can't get any change out of my pockets for parking/toll bridge etc without getting out of the car, give me a Landrover anyday, I might consider a Cobra or a Mustang al la Steve McQueen style. All these things are personal guess.
