That is excellent. I passed my test in my Mums 1966 Renault 10. I was taught to drive by Len our milkman!!!

Not Ernie then?

Unless you're old enough to remember Austin and Morris you've probably not hear of the fastest milkman in the west.

I took my test in a Ford Escort 1100L.
First bought car was a Simca 1100, what a heap that was, definitely made a mistake buying that.
So many things went wrong with it that I worked what I was paying out I could afford a loan for a new car.
Next car was a brand new Ford Escort Mk2 RS Mexico, I then went on to three Escort RS2000's

I remember Austin and Morris and Ernie!!!!!
The first car I bought was a harvest gold (same colour as the Princess in this thread) Morris Marina 1.3 DeLux. DeLux meant it had a mono MW/LW radio and a fag lighter!!! £330 bargain. Sold it a year later for £300 to buy a turquoise 2.0l Manta Berlinetta. A bit of a step up as that had velour seats!!!!!
