Our family car was a little Mini Metro.
Was our family car, interesting choice what with a bi-annual camping holiday to Wales.
3 kids in the back, mum and dad in front and camping gear where ever it would fit!

There's a Rally Landcrab in Gaydon.

This is the first car I remember my Dad having:

 :grin:  My dad had one of those,  he went through cars like nobody I've ever known, I'm struggling to remember the first with me but then remembered this.
