My first car was a 1971-75 celica (not sure on the year) I didn't even have my licence to drive it :( it ended up with a yellow and sat in my yard rotting away ahaha
next was worse a really old and really ugly mazda 323 next was a ford laser KH GL with some 6x9's in the parcel shelf hahaha Swapped that baby for an XF Ute on gas ![]() Next was the most embarrasing car ever, PT Cruiser hahaha (shuddup!) Sold that and bought my Nissan Stagea. Its a great car, has kicked a few falcons' butts :P next car is going to be a BA ute of some year.. preferable on gas ![]()

$200 Datsun 200b - canary yellow - used more oil then fuel.
Holden camira - great car but wrote it off after hitting a gemini. TD cortina - very slow and moter ended up blowing up. VC commodore - Also slow - sold it and still see it driving around town even after 6 years. Vk commodore - had it for five years and it never missed a beat. Done 300000km in it. Sold it for $300 with a blown moter. ED fairmont - still have it today with 300000km on the clock. Still going strong. XR6 turbo - My current car!
