Cars from the past?


Open question to all, what cars do you remember as a kid?
Living in colchester I remember all the yellow Mk 3 Cortina's that were taxis in the town,
Rovers P6 with the spare wheels on the boot lid in covers 
and Austin 1300s

There are a couple of nice P6's still around, my mate in Dereham has got one (minus the spare wheel on the boot) laid up at the moment. Sadly I haven't got any pictures.

Earliest memory for me was my Dad's 105e which he really looked after but it was pinched from outside our house and was found smashed to bits 10 miles away.
Also remember the jacked up custom cars especially mk2 tina's and mk1 Escorts riding around Ipswich in the 70's when i was a lad.
Neighbours cars were hb viva, hillman imp, mk1 corty est, coarsehair 2000e and the bloke who lived opposite had a hillman hunter which was always a job to start on cold mornings, when he finally started it he would rev the $hit out of it no .
I can even remember the evenings when my Dad came home from work and used to light a parafin lamp and chain it to the bumper on his car!
 I can remember a certain 'Dell' driving around in a grey 100e biggrin
