what was your first car?

I went to my kids' school recently and was struck by all the new cars the teens drive. Several have crewcab F350's and one kid even drives an H3 Hummer. My first car was a 1970 MG Midget that was such a POS that I wound up buying a 1969 VW Beetle as a driver. The VW was so rusty that when I drove through a puddle, water would come up around the rust holes near the e-brake and splash my butt. It has no heat because the heat channels were rusted out. Wish I had both of those cars now...although I have plumped up a bit and probably couldn't get in and out of the MG now.
