1) 1961 Ford XK Falcon Deluxe 140ci 2spd Auto - First car I owned, never saw the road.
Bought for $500, was made grand promises by my stepdad that "We're gonna fix it up".
Never happened. Sold it for $600.

2) 1989 KE Laser Ghia 5dr 1.6L 3spd Auto - First car I owned and drove.
Was a big heap of but never failed to start and never broke down.
Nearly rolled it one night with a full house (5 people in the car) whilst pulling handbrake 180 turns on the local footy field.

3) 1991 VN Commodore (S)Executive 3.8L 4spd Auto - In reality I bought this car to impress a girl I knew who was into Holdens.
Was actually an enjoyable car. It was a owner example that had been resprayed, lowered,
cat-back exhaust (used to get asked all the time "Is that a V8 mate?"), 17" VX SS rims and a thumping stereo.
Traded it in on a '03 BA XT.

4) 2003 BA XT 4.0L 4spd Semi-Auto - Most expensive car I've bought so far.
Was a bone stock, one owner, 98'000km example when I bought it.
Wrote it off in an accident on Mother's Day this year.

5) TBA - Right now I'm driving my Godmother's Volvo 850 whilst she is in Europe.

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 came with the stuffed door handles grrr

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!
