first car was an e reg escort was bought for me and my bro as our first 'if you have any crashes its a sh!te car' type car. That got sold when i went to uni as it wouldnt really be practical to keep it where I was living (chapeltown in leeds *shudders*) We then moved to 3 bedroom semi with my ex and two dogs so my dad bought me a lovely l reg  1.6 16V Escort. However, while working i pulled out on someone and had a tiny bump (only one in 5 years driving) was still driveable but on our anniversary trip to chester zoo one junction onto the m62 the car decided to die complete and utterly. Dad said the headgasket went in a very bad place and would cost £200 to fix along with £200 to repair body work from bump and the car only cost £400 from a friend who works at ford garage. It got scrapped.

6 months after my dad suprised me with the mk2 golf i currently drive. Im doing well dontcha think three cars bought for me so far!!  :grin: :grin:
