bought my first car in 1971, for US$500. it's a second-hand VW bug.
my second car was a used Chevy Impala. bought it in 1974, also for US$500...automatic, power steering, quiet, good suspension system, spacioius interior and comfortable seats. and when the doors were closed, it had the sound of a pumpkin falling into mud. in all, a great second-hand car.
after that i had driven Japanese and German made cars.
but what i really like to ride on is a motor bike.
