I learned in, and still sometimes borrow, my dad's 1997/98 (R-reg) Nissan Micra. Tim Send a noteboard - 10/04/2010 09:21:56 AM
For instance, for the last week I have been driving it around Western Europe. It's quite a sight, as my sister decided to paint flames all around it a few years ago. People keep taking photos on the motorway and stuff.

What do you currently own?


I have never owned a car. I really want one, but I don't have any sensible reason to own one, enough money to buy, tax and insure it, or anywhere to put it. So it's an ongoing dream...

What would you own if you had your choice?


London taxi, if I can find one that's decently fuel-efficient. Failing that, Mini Cooper (one of the new ones).

But realistically, my first car will probably be something crappy, like... a 1997/98 Nissan Micra.
