Please leave your answer in the comments. I still daily drive my first car and I will until it quits! It is a 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis (AKA Ford Crown Victoria.) I love it and I am so glad my father gave it to me.

86 T-Bird Elan! Miss that car
 
Not saying cos it's often a security question 😝
But, it was a hand-me-down, ex-taxi with it's gear linkages held together by rubber bands; so, you can imagine the fun at traffic lights 🤭
My first mode of personal transport was,

And only cos with it being a lowrider, it was the only bike in the shop on which my feet would touch the floor and the bloke wouldn't sell me anything taller 🤭
Comfy ride, though. Got nicked after a short while, forcing me into illegally riding a larger capacity bike (which was the only thing affordable in town and I needed one for work).

I had that Lada for a pair of months at 1997. It was really carwreck - not because bad car, but old: Bad compresion, bad brakes, holes under pedals... After that I bought Skoda Favorit - that was very different.
