Bought a Ford Ikon as my first car: Reliving some old memories

It was a proper drivers car, steering had razor sharp response, brilliant through corners.

What was your first car?

When you toss out the question, "What was your first car?" it's like you're unlocking a door to a time when fuel didn't cost an arm and a leg, and life was a bit less serious. The answers you get are like mini-stories filled with the excitement of youth and the thrill of having your own set of wheels. Each response is a snapshot of someone's history, maybe it's a hand-me-down car that's been through a lot, or it's the first car someone bought with money they worked hard for. These stories are like a patchwork quilt made up of funny car troubles, road trips with pals, and the tunes of a time that's now a bit of a throwback.

You will create some of the best memories, whether they include having a jam session alone or with some close friends. Your first vehicle will be all yours. You get to name them, take care of them, abuse them and even feed them every so often.

If available, add pictures.

First car: Ford Ikon

It was a proper drivers car, steering had razor sharp response, brilliant through corners, car gave me troubles too, but I had a blast with this car, in the end that’s all matters.
