1st car: Ford Fiesta Mk3 - crashed it two months after passing test.
2nd car: Vauxhall Astra Mk3 - sold it to my brother, still owns it now.
3rd car: Mini Cooper Sport - sold it for £1000 profit.
4th car: Ford Focus Mk1 - current car, about to sell it to my mum.
Next car: Honda Civic coupe - still looking for this one, hoping to buy one tomorrow.

That's 5 cars in 3 1/2 years.

Yes, but I didn't drive it home as I'm not insured to drive other peoples cars. I did however manage to swap over the insurance when we got home so I could drive it to work today.
