    My first car was a 1982 entry level fiesta. 950cc and very basic. One wing mirror, one sun visor, no headrests on the front seats, manual choke, no rear windscreen wiper and the front windscreen washers were operated by a foot pump on the floor behind the clutch.
    It topped out at about 79mph (going downhill) but I loved it.

      I had the same, 1981 red with brown interior. I'd forgotten about the windscreen washer pump on the floor! My first car when I was 16. I payed £30 for it but never got it road worthy. I gave it away a couple of years later and I've regretted it ever since. I'd love to know if it's still in someone's garage somewhere.

      @@garsamusic A relative had an X reg in blue, D***45X, I saw the car 2 years ago and after that it was scrapped. An old couple had bought it off him many years ago and must have kept it all that time. It also had an alarm, the on/off switch was key operated at the back on the side near the boot lid, hilarious to think of that now.

    I had a somewhat similar 1980 model that I bought brand new. Mine had the only engine used in the 'states: the 1.6. Being red inside and out made it look quite expensive...as Fiestas go. Loved driving it but there were countless times I shifted into, or tried to shift into a 5th gear.
    That car was like an eager puppy, always ready to run.

    Can you do a review of an Austin Maxi 1750 please if you can get your hands on one?
    I had three in a row as daily cars for about 15 years. I found them to be fun, reliable and very usable.
    I parted with my last one after I inherited my fathers Humber Hawk Series II that has been my project car for the last seven years.
    It inspired me for a complete change from Austins to Humbers that felt refreshing.
    Maybe one day I will find another Maxi

    So which of today's runabouts will be cool in 2055? Any suggestions?

      Dunno whether you can consider a 208gti as a runabout, I was thinking more base model (1.1L Fiesta, Metro 1.0L, 205GL, etc). My mum had a 1982 Fiesta XR2 for a short time. It was cool then and we had no doubt it would be cool in the future! And it is... I wish I still had it.

    That was not the economy one. The E models from X reg had 3 gears plus an "E" gear and lights on the dashboard to tell you when to change up, one yellow one orange. They were a 950cc 4 cylinder.
    The model after this around B reg was far far better in the rounded off design, stronger engines too. The very last 1.25 zetec were far faster and more efficient than the 1.3. They also made a 1.6 turbo and a diesel. The XR2 ans 2i were good too. So many design improvements over the years.
    I liked the B reg new improved design the most.
