Shite from the year you were born.

[brownnova]

Behold the glory of cars launched in my birth year...

 

​

 

 

​

 

​

 

As well as the production of my first car, the Brown Nova

 

 

​

 

A great year 1985.....

[MiniMort]

Are you 15? If so I'm impressed with your interest in ancient chod. All the cars produced after your birth would be considered modern by the standards of Autoshite

Well actually I'm 14. Production started in 2001. I don't know how many people my ageare interested in classic cars but I love them! Yeah, I do consider anything after my birth as modern.

[rantingYoof]

*feels positively ancient*

Excellent news, glad there will be some fresh blood in our hobby

 

I have 15 year old twin girls who take the p out out of my shite

 

Still trying to brainwash the younger ones....

[STUNO]

Geeeez.......I was on the downhill slope when MiniMort was created. I don't think there were any NEW cars when I happened.

 

Great to see some young enthusiasm on here, have you learned to weld yet ?

 

Found one, this was the start of something very big

 

[HH-R]

I'm still stuck somewhere between 1999 and 2001.

[AlabamaShrimp]

Not that many new new cars in 1976, must have been too hot or something.

 

If I had to choose there's only one choice for me a Fiesta mk1

 

 

But seeing as I already own one, and beige at that, it would have to be a van in the same red or that dark blue ford used to do

That's nice to hear that your doing something about it. Everyone should be a classic car enthusiast! I'm glad there is such a kind community to discuss this with!

[MiniMort]

You could also have had the Citroen LNA and the Volvo 343/345

[Keymaster]

Launched in '81 actually...

Manufactured from 80 though, so I'm taking it.

[panhard65]

1968 saw the release of the mighty 204 diesel.

[Taff]

I was born in 1959, which was a bit of a golden time apparently...

All born in 59....

 

Oi, Ramrod, there is a perfectly desirable '59 yank-tank on the forum...

 

I'm a 1970 kinda-guy, so it's easy. Mk1 Escort, namely this one

 

[Mr A Lawrence]

Other than man setting foot* on the moon automotive highlights included.....

 

Fiat 128

 

Maxi.

 

Ford Capri

 

Dacia 1300

 

Å koda 100

[Slartibartfast]

Have Dacia really been making cars since the late 60s? I had no idea

[mossymossy]

Also 1964. Bloody great year!

Sir. I have to agree with you there. Although it took me a couple of years to get into Autoshite. 1966 my first hire car.

[Christine]

I was born on Christmas day...same old shite year on year  

 

 

[eddyramrod]

Taff, my humblest apogolies, you are correct of course...

...and how purposeful it looks!

 

MiniMort, welcome!  14?  I've got a grandson a year younger than you are!  Glad to see the next generation taking an interest!

[Asimo]

New for 1957 was - me,

 

Riley 1.5

 

Jaguar XK 150

 

Jags after the '150 are all a bit meh (unless they are Daimlers) imho.

 

Riley 1.5 was what I drove to school on my 17th birthday, and everyday thereafter until the mot ran out. But they ain't very good so the Jag it is.

 

But not on wire wheels, no way......

[John F]

[Dick Cheeseburger]

I'm happy to have been launched in the year this interior was brand new:

 

And this wasn't yet rusty...

 

And a brand new MonteCarlo would do me fine.

I have to agree.  Says the resident American Auto lover.  I suppose everyone is allowed a mistake.
