My first car was two tone blue Hillman Imp which was a twenty-first birthday present but it was unreliable and would only go for about thirty miles before seriously overheating.
I only kept it for a few months and I bought my own real first car, a flame red Hillman Avenger, a top of the range specification GL 1500cc, registration WRW 366J, which featured four round headlights internal bonnet release, two-speed wipers, brushed nylon seat trim (previously never used on British cars), reclining front seats (very important of course) , hockey stick rear light cluster and a round dial dashboard with extra instrumentation.
Oh Boy, I was so proud of that car.
I have had many since of course including a blue TR7 …
… and my first company car…
… but, if I could have any of my old cars back from the scrap yard it would just have to be be my red Hillman Avenger…
