A 1997 Ford Fiesta Ghia 1.8D slowest thing I have ever driven but was easy to learn in. Was impossible to stall it.

One of these!!! Well, a right hand drive version….god that gearstick took some getting used to, but somehow I passed first time! Don't think I would pass first go these days - developed too many bad driving habits!

A metallic green 1979 Mk 1 Golf GL. Registration GGF 450T. It's the only reg number I've ever remembered

Edit: sorry for the 'holy thread revival batman', thought I was looking at current threads, turns out it was old participated ones!

Can't remember the age of the car, but the company I used to learn with had a red Renault Clio diesel.

Vowed to never own a diesel since however, sadly they don't make unleaded V8 Navaras in this country. lol

Passed first time with no professional lessons in my fathers 1.6 MK3 Ford Cortina (Coke bottle style). That car and other fords of the day were very easy to drive and had a fabulously light gear change that would put many modern cars to shame.
