Saturday night nostalgia: Your first car

There is nothing like your first car. Some of us were lucky and got a car that we could love for years – reliable and trustworthy. Some of us got a car that caused us angst, cost too much money and was a joke amongst our friends. Whatever your first car was, it is something you will always remember. So tonight for our Saturday Night Nostalgia, we are taking a look back through the first cars of the Starts at 60 community.

They may not have had power steering, heated seats, power windows, air conditioning, reversing cameras, or any of today’s fancy gadgets, but they are irreplaceable in our memories. 

The following list of cars are some of the most popular first cars in our Starts at 60 community. Read on and see if your car was one of them. Tell us in the comments below, was it reliable? Or did it breakdown a lot? Can you share some funny stories about it with us?
