Mine's a 03 Mitsubishi Pajero diesel with 225,000km on it. But have had a lot of different cars before it including Wolseley 4/44, Morris Oxford MO, some 15 Morris Minors of all types except the ragtop, and for a couple of years back in the mid-70s it was this CMP Sigvan, extremely reliable (and fun) thing it was too.
![]() My first car was a 1959 Singer Gazelle Estate which I bought from my cousin for $25.00

![]() I was a little sorry mine wound up absolutely rusted out after reading in an English magazine the estate version was 'ultra-rare'. I still have it. A few years ago it had become home to a black snake which had come in through a convenient rust hole in the floor and could sun itself on the dash.

I wish.
But it was on loan, sadly, was sold in the early 80s and I believe is now in Far North Queensland of all places in a museum. I hope to visit it mid-next month to see if it is the one.

Keith,
You used to take that sig van on VMVC outings in mid 1976 ... One trip to the Murrundindi area , up towards Yea , I recall . I also spotted it in Warburton or Healesville ( can't remember which ) in the late 70's or early 80's.. probably after it had passed from your hands Mike
