Whats your car history

I was just curious as i have never owned a car for myself i will have to tell you my dads car history

His first car was a 1981 Vauxhall Cavalier
Second car was a 1993 Ledbury Maestro
Third car was a 1990 Vauxhall Nova SRi
Forth car was a 1995 Rover 414i
Fifth and present car is a 1996 Rover 420D
He now also owns a 2004 Ford Fiesta Van

Not a very long history i know my uncle has had better cars than my dad me i am more into classic cars from around the 60s up until 90s

So whats your car history?

Re: Whats your car history

I have owned many cars and trucks over the years. All were bought used starting in 1983, except where noted. This list is roughly in chronological order. For the last 25 years, I've owned 7 to 10 cars at any one time

1. 1977 Jeep Wagoneer (acquired 1983, the only car I truly regret selling, 6.6 liter V8, rare)
2. 1984 Jeep Wagoneer (1984 - its the compact XJ version. Loved it, but had reliability problems. Still have it)
3. 1979 Ford Mustang (Pace-car replica, shouldn't have sold it)
4. 1979 BMW 733 - Beautiful car, sold it just before it fell apart
5. 1977 Lincoln Mk V - Very reliable, still have it.
6. 1979 Chevrolet G20 van - short-box with a 5.7 V8, rare combination, great truck.
7. 1978 Plymouth Fury - bought for parts/field car. Was stolen
8. 1973 Buick Century - too rusty to rescue but a great car.Was stolen
9. 1976 Plymouth Duster - bought for parts/field car.
10. 1981 Ford Escort
11. 1977 Chevrolet Impala - bought for parts
12. 1982 Pontiac Parisienne - Like new, should have kept it.
13. 1968 Ford Thunderbird - still own it, a joy to have.
14. 1979 Chevrolet Bel Air - bought for parts.
15. 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood - I modded this one extensively
16. 1981 Cadillac Deville - for parts
17. 1984 Chevrolet S10 - A great compact pick-up truck.
