Fiat Panda :)

Its my first ever car, what was yours and how did you get on
with it? I've only got a provisional license at the moment
so can't drive it on my own yet. Can't wait till i pass my
test!

provisional licenses?

yeah, places/lifestyles where you don't need a car are the
shit. Driving in the states is pretty easy usually; there
were a bunch of 15 year old retards doing it when I was in
high school.. I got mine at 16 and all I had to pay for was
an $8 learning permit.

Oops didnt mean to hit reply!

My first vehicle was a minivan. At first i was quite pissed
about driving the damn thing. After time went on it actually
became quite fun. Load it up with people and go driving
about to various locations. I believe i jam packed 16 people
in it.

Currently i drive a 1995 Monte Carlo

the first one daddy bought me? :)

it was a fiat fiorino, i was too young to get a license and
the car was new and had no insurance or license plates...so
i was driving around illegally hehe. i was driving like that
for over a year...then he bought me some other cars..

the first one i bought on my own was a saab..which is the
one im still driving.

Congratulations, if you need them :) The Panda is funny, i
remember its photo on lots of bubble gum inlays, and
youngsters who bought them were not satisfied by this small
carm they needed some red hot cars. Useless info:)

i haven't got a car yet and havent had one since where i was
born. Not ready to buy it yet.

I did have a 1990 Toyota Corrola which my Mum gave me when
she bought a new Mini. I recently just bought a Ford Focus
and with less than 500 miles on the clock it's off the road
because some cunt pulled out in front of me.

1989 Blue Dodge Colt Vista (manufactured by Mitsubishi
before they had a division in the United States)

It broke down numerous times and is in car heaven most
likely right now. Seated 8 people though!

that car is awesome.

the downfall to my car was also due to the same lack of
attention to the oil. although my oil seemed to leak or burn
quickly and the low oil light was very bugged.

this was my first car (1990 oldsmobile cutless calais); and
what a piece of junk it was! now i drive a much more
suitable 1996 mitsubishi galant. it is everything my
cutless was not: fuel efficient, a stick shift, tiny,
maroon, cute. your new car looks cute, too, pantalaimon!

"yeaaah! that was my fave car that my dad owned a couple of

wow, lots of people liking the panda on here :)

In this country its a pretty unpopular car (lots of boy
racers here)... which is good in a way as I get it cheaper
than I would otherwise.

there is a possibility i may be getting a used 2004 nissan
sentra for $12,600 before taxes and things. it has only
8,600 miles on it, pretty good for being a year and a half
old.

hopefully i will be approved for a loan. then i get the
pleasure of making monthly payments on it, paying insurance,
and most likely paying monthly for student loans when i go
back to school next year. bye bye money. hello life.

well yes but coming out of those plugs are a few short wires
that seem to go nowhere, i guess they are for the speakers?


anyway i'm just going to pay someone to fit it for me, going
to get some speakers for the rear shelf tomorrow.
