Re: What car are you coming from?

1984 Jeep CJ8 - My first car, slow as anything and drank fuel like there was no tomorrow. Had the best time in it though and crammed about 12 people in the back . It was involved in two separate accidents - the second one wrote it off.
1988 Toyota Camry - After the experience of owning the Jeep, I wanted a simple boring car and nothing fitted the bill quite like a Camry. Had it for about 3 years, during which time the 'modification bug' had bitten and I had installed a full stereo, loud exhaust and a host of other distasteful mods. Sold it for $900 to a friend.
1999 Subaru Liberty RX 2.5 (Legacy) - One of the best cars I have owned, loved the AWD traction. Was my first ever car fitted with full electrics and A/C! Had it for nearly 5 years before selling it with almost 300,000kms on the clock.
1994 Ford Festiva (Aspire) - Was a hand-me-down from the old man's missus. Loved having a cheap bunky that I didn't have to worry about where I parked it or leaving it unlocked somewhere. Handed it down to my little bro where it met its demise in the form of an undisclosed mechanical issue.
2011 Suzuki Kizashi XLS - Alas I decided to make the major upgrade to a new car with all the fruit and have not looked back since. Looking forward to the next 10 years with this beast and maybe handing it down to my children (if they don't have hover cars by then ).
