First car I ever owned was a Land Rover Series 3 SWB I brought for £400

Current car is a 1991 Land Rover Defender LWB

In between I've had a few landies, one Vauxhall and one Citroen

I like old landies, they're simple and don't beep, bing and bong at me because a fly landed on the indicator lens!

I have toyed with the idea of buying a landy, maybe an old disco just to play around with, they’re very fun cars!

They are fun, but be prepared to spend a lot more than the initial purchase price if you're doing it up!

When I die, I want them to put me in mine, set it on fire and push it off down the M5

First car back in 1976 was a very rough Triumph Herald - more noise than speed.

Since then I have owned somewhere in the region of 30 cars, mostly diesels.

Current cars:

One for work - Diesel Mercedes estate with 520,000 km

One for weekends etc - Volvo XC90 diesel

My first car was a silver Austin allegro which looked like it had been driven through an active war zone several times! But then you don’t get a pristine car for £50 😂
