I recently turned 18, so my parents signed me up for driving school. When I showed up at the academy, I was surprised by the cars they had available for students to learn on. They told me to pick whichever I liked best, and I chose the Mercedes-Benz G500.

Pack it up fellas
Fiat Punto.
Exam cars in my area were puntos so schools tended to teach the same model.

Red '89 Civic hatchback. It lacked power steering so I had to turn the wheel a hundred times to make it turn. It felt ancient to me and it was manual transmission. My dad wanted me to learn manual even though most cars are automatic in the US. No power steering absolutely sucked, but it turns out knowing how to drive manual can be pretty useful.
A 1971 Massey Ferguson 135. And yes, that’s a tractor. Guess who’s got two thumbs and grew up on the countryside?
When learning to drive at speeds greater than 30km/h it was in my dad’s 1995 Volvo 940, a car that was later passed down to me, and I drove it until March 2025.
Currently learning on a Peugeot e-208 which is electric. Apart from that, it is more or less the same as the manual version.
Ford KA Mk1, absolute shitbox and I still miss it despite driving a classic super mini these days.
My first real drive was my brother’s Saab. Quirky car to start with
Early 80’s Subaru sedan with a manual. On a cross country trip with my dad when we moved from the West Coast to Massachusetts. Good times…except hitting a turtle somewhere in Penn.
Some manual car provided by the driving school. Not a gear/petrol/car head
The format was a bit bigger than a compact or full-size.
Driving lessons was with a Peugeot 308 is think. I also had supervised driving with my parents, I mostly drove my dad’s Peugeot Partner (horrible car). When I go my license my parents bought me a second hand Citroën Xantia. This car was awesome 😎.
A dark green '96 Fiat Furtodidati. It was the Frodediidentità special edition, with the extra cupholders.
The driving school’s VW Golf.
Though to be fair, I did start learning in my dad’s Saab 95 BioPower, and his Peugeot 406 convertible.
When I got my license in 2022 at 35, I spent some inheritance and bought a nearly new 2021 Seat Leon FR PHEV hatchback.
205bhp in my first car aint bad…
The family car which was a Vauxhall Cavalier.
