My Dad was a garage mechanic in the 1950's when I was very young and we had a fabulous range of pre-war cars that were cheap trade ins including Morris, Austins and Fords of all types some of which he had for only a few weeks before changing them.  I do remember him having the chance of a huge Lagonda V12 and refusing it because it was too thirsty!  Unfortunately he then started to buy cheap new cars including a Goggomobil, a Gordon 3 wheeler (which my Mum managed to roll into a field) and a BMW 3 wheeler bubble car all of which I hated, preferring the larger old cars.  Since then he has owned more cars than I care to remember and is still driving an automatic Nissan Micra at 93 years old!
