Reminder of the previous message
Wow, some of you guys have some long lists. Looks like this thread is a little old. Hopefully you don't mind if I add to it?
My parents have owned a:
WV Bug
Datsun B210 (IIRC)
Chevy Celebrity
Ford Explorer
Toyota pickup
Ford Expedition
Geo Prism
Honda Accord
Honestly, I think that's it. At least that I know of. Man, guess that was pretty lame.
I think I have owned more then them...

O.k., guys, this is a test-pic. I'm just busy with the installation of a photo-programm on my computer and -much more important- to shovel the pics from the old PC, we have (intelligently before the total collapse of the old machine) saved on UBS-sticks and the camera itself.
Let's go:
Oh nice, it works. You see my Dad's car an mine on one pic.

His previous one, sold in 2006 for 340€ by eBay to Siberia:
Nice with some pictures Ingo, it remind me that I scaned in some picture some time ago where my perents old cars is seen.
My dads 1977 Mazda 929 HT, he bought it only two or three years old. The first picture is from a trip to Jämtland in the early eighties and the other three pictures is from a trip to Norway in '86 or '87:
And here it's sent to the junkyard:
After that they had a crappy SAAB 99 CombiCoupé:
Here is the 1980 244 GL that I remember from my childhood, my grandparents 244 can be seen in the background too:
After they had owned it for ten or fifteen years they bought this car from my grandparents and it was the one that I did some practice driving with:

Behind the crappy Saab on the left, is it the little atom? 
Yes indeed, I'm helping my dad with the driveway
Today I was playing around with my digital camera and have tried to make pics of paper-photos. It has worked not too bad.
So here my father's first carm he had from 1973 to Spring 1978, a 8/1967 VW 1300. Yes, the rims were 1969+, but they had been on the car the whole time.
I couldn't find a pic of the next car, the first "real car", a VW Passat LS from September 1973 in marinogelb, with sunroof and green interior. Maybe later.
After that we had a 1976 Passat L.
This pic was one of the first, I'd made with my first own camera, a 1961' Agfa roll-film camera, an used one from my mother.
Easter-Sunday 1983. It was a Mercedes 280 SE [W116]:
The successor. Behind it you see my grandfather's 1977 Mercedes 230.
Summer 1984 on well known holy motorsports ground
August 1986:
A pic from early 1989, shot in the DDR -my first longer trip alone by car after I made the license- The guy on the right is the fellow, I've visited there.
Annother pic with me driving it:
His next car, the 1990 35i-Passat Variant is already posted.
