I got my first car just a few years ago. It's a really practical minivan that I got second-hand. I like it very much, it's economical, it's comfortable to drive, it's spacious, it has enough horsepower for me and it allows me and my girl to take our dog on adventures with us :)
We've already made quite a few memories with it and have traveled quite a lot. I once even damaged the transmission trying to climb a mountain hill (which this car has obviously not been designed to do). The climb also ruined the tyres, but the car got us home anyway.
