Your Dads first Car

[emekliyim]

My father's first car was a SWIFT but I don't know which manufacturer made it.

If I recal correctly Kayakebab the 3-wheelers could be driven on a motor cyscle licence if the reverse gear had been physically removed!

After the Cortina my Dad got one of these, Vauxhall Victor Estate, bench seats, column shift and fake metal side panels that were supposed to look like wood. His was a maroon colour and was his pride and joy

I know off subject but this was my 1st car.  Anyone identify it?

Vauxhall Firenza 2300 droopsnoot as raced by Gerry Marshall   
Rimms ,I think thats a Cortina estate.

[Eric]

Very good, but mine was the 1600 version

[Scunner]

The words at the top tend to give it away Eric  

I was thinking Opel Manta up till then

Please comment on the car, not the driver !

Not sure what my dad's first car was but he had these 2 after a Ford Anglia that I remember.
