My favorite was my '67 Mustang convertible. I took it to Mexico and got an awesome tuck and roll leather interior done. It was wrecked 
and I got a '69 BMW that took me 25 years to wear out at 450,000 miles.

My mum had a Morris Minor!! It ran brilliantly except the one hill we would need to use will-power to get over :-5 (I think I can! I think I can! a la the Little Engine That Could!). The dreaded day eventually arrived as our little Morris stalled going up the hill - it never was the same again..... :-1 :-1 Thx for the memory jog, Capt!!

I used to own one between about 1971 and 1973. I loved it! Not very fast but quite reliable and easy to drive etc, and as you say, full of character!
