Something in your first car that isn't in your current car

Jump leads

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

A wet passenger seat due to a leaking sunroof.

The damn thing used to gush water if I went round a left bend with a bit too much gusto. I once (and only once) gave my future mother-in-law a lift to work, and obviously I couldn't resist...

A fit bird on the back seat

This man pulls up on a dark lovers lane and says to his girlfriend:-

"OK, get in the back"

She says "No"

He says "Come on, get in the back"

She said "No"

He said "Come on get in the back"

She replied "I've told you no"

Getting frustrated he said "Why not?"

She replied "Cos' I want to stay in the front with you"

It's something that was in your first car not the first joke you heard in your first car all those years ago;-)

 

[bluemanchester]

A front bench seat and three speed column change gearbox, and a steering wheel you can remove in ten seconds with a ring spanner.......

Q bench seat, no seatbelts and a fast turn into a left hand bend. Preceded by, you can take your coat off I've put the heater on.

 

[i kne albert davy]

Carburettor, distributor with points, stick-on heated rear demister, choke, manual gearbox, no sound system soon replaced by cassette player, foot-operated screen wash pump, wing mirrors.
Edit: Plus ignition key, single door unlocking and window winders.

Cortina MK3 by any chance ?

 

[i kne albert davy]

Crosssply tyres.

A hole in the floor

I remember my brother’s car, he had a little plastic tub in the passenger well to collect where the rain came in.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Babysitters knickers in the glove compartment.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

A silly little man walking in front of the car with a red flag : )

That’s a bit harsh - @oakiecokie. Was only doing his job

 

[Franny 1234]

CB Radio and my rubber ducky areal to go with it.

 

[Djibrilshairdo]

Brother in laws Mini had sliding front windows, something that resembled a curtain wire to open the doors and external door hinges.

 

[Victorinodennistua]

A tablet

An ashtray of 2p’s. Tiger seat covers and 3 cars welded into 1.

 

[Newman Noggs]

A little foot pump on the floor next to the clutch to operate the screenwash, a rubber glove over the coil and moss growing in the sills.

 

[surprisedbygrass]

A chain on the dashboard to pull up the radiator blind .

Choke

Wind up windows

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Too many speakers. A different stereo with a dizzying array of unnecessary lights, and a giant fucking subwoofer.

What a knobhead.

 

[East Level 2]

Cortina MK3 by any chance ?

No, a Hillman Hunter 1725DL. The Cortina Mk3 was my 5th car.

 

[tweety]

Lots of rust.

Brilliant. I'd have had lung cancer if I had one of those

 

[bluetonium]

Moss on the windows and around the gaps that, no matter how much you tried, always seemed to resist being cleaned and gave every trip that 'earthy' smell.

A choke, essential in winter for starting the thing but also brought to the table a game of jeopardy called 'flood the engine'.
