I've had a few classic (as opposed to vintage) cars:
1974 VW Beetle (made in Mexico - was a real mix-mash of older parts!)
Several Triumph Heralds
1964 Riley Elf (I put a MG 1100 engine in that, it went really nicely and I kept it for a long time)
1974 Hillman Hunter DL (worn out but a lovely comfortable car for a sixth form student!)
1976 Humber Sceptre Estate
8-10 Vauxhall Viva HCs!
1969 Vauxhall Ventora 3.3 (I should have kept that one - it was gorgeous)
Two Mk 1 Escorts, back when they weren't silly money
1975 Ford Cortina 2000E (Looked shabby but standard, I should have kept that one, especially after I dropped the 2.9 Cosworth BOA engine in it! We also did a couple of epic European road trips in it - Here it is on a Croatian motorway)
1986 Citroen 2CV (Both my wife and I hated that thing, it was a real deathtrap but I made over 1000 quid in profit by selling to a collector in Malaysia!)
1984 MG Montego Turbo (otherwise known as the "Monstrositego" by my friends - it was fun but souless and felt cheap - quickly sold on
1974 Austin Allegro (Bought for a joke, it was immaculate - the joke was on me however as I immediately realised what an excellent car it was, in complete contrast to the reputation! I kept it for a couple of years and remember it fondly
