Cars we were brought home in


Recommended Posts

A green Talbot Alpine, which dad then got rid of for a Tagora.

A 1963ish Ford Anglia 105E Deluxe in battleship grey. Which I see is now back in fashion these days.

Posted

!964 Hillman Minx, which had apparently been  swapped for My Dad's Ford Anglia van as a saloon car was considered  much safer for a new born.

I believe it would have been one of these.

For me I believe it would have been a Vauxhall victor FB. My dad had nothing but a series of Victor's until he defected to leyland with a princess in 1977.

It was a close run thing as a new Cortina 80 was planned but there was a bit of a waiting list which delayed the purchase.

A neighbour's Yugo 45, as Dad was going through a ban for drink driving at the time.

I was brought home in a car incredibly similar to this one in the pic. 1985 Toyota Corolla 4-door.

Carrycot in the back of a mini van 

 

On tradeplates cos dad was almost too late for the birth cow he had just been to a van auction

I came home from hospital in a taxi in 1980. My sister came home in a merc w115. 

Fast forward a good few years and my daughter came home from hospital in 2018 in my rather tired out K reg lancia dedra.

I was born in London and spent time in Great Ormand Street before being brought home in a taxi.

My sister was brought home in a 1986 VW Passat estate (D177BRP I think)...like this:

My 11-month old was brought home in the Lexus. Therefore, I imagine she will have impeccable* car taste in the future.

Apparently I came home in my Grandad's Escort Popular, as Dad had a Honda CB650 at the time.

Cant remember.

 

I do know it was produced before 1959 though.

Probably an Austin Mini van, ACA354B.  Because in 1965, that was deemed 'safer' than a sidecar attached to the left of a Triumph T110*...
