8 years old in my Dad's 78 Honda Civic. Car he still owns and has had since new. Drove from Carbrook to Redland Bay and back again on dirt roads.
First time I drove on the road with a learners permit was in a toyota coaster bus.
I bought a Honda Life which i never got registered, then bought my grandparents 78 Civic which I still have then bought my Kombi which i still own as
well.
Drove the van last night for first time in a few weeks. the smells, noises and performance..... something the Hilux lacks LOL
That's funny you should say that about the smell of a car my oval has a nice car smell to it. I get my jumper or blankets out of my oval and they
smell like car I love that smell. Unlike the Hilux

well to show my age i started in a 1927 cheve and than a 36 sloper cheve than a tiny reno and finally a fergy tracto.r some of the lerks that go with living afarm
My first car that i had and learnt to drive in was a LC Torana,Rose that old provisional license brings back some memories cheers shane.
Had a heap of lessons in the instructor's 121 bubble car . Also
tooled around whilst on my Ls and Ps in my mum's very beat up Datsun 180B wagon. Despite having oil in the water, water in the oil, bald tyres,
needing new plugs every month or so and not having seen the inside of a workshop in far too long, it just would not die.
Soon after I got my Ps I got my '72 bug and really started to learn to drive. From there to my current golf.
