My first car, Peugeot 106 Escapade 1.5D:
I do miss it for it's handling and the fact I could throw it about without caring. Although it was an absolute heap under the bonnet, was VERY loud even for a desiel and it stank of cinnamon/alcohol flavoured puke! I traded it in before it's MOT as it would have never passed 
My second car, Vauxhall Corsa GLS 1.2 16v:
Miss this because it was my first proper car that I took car of, spent all my money on and kept spotlessly clean as much as I could. Kept it too long tho and it started to have too many problems so got bored of it eventually
Traded the Corsa in for my current car, my Astra coupe

MISS THIS
My 1st car, Nova 1.3sr with Kent cam. Used to go like hell, park it where i wanted to, drive like a loon. That car took all the abuse you ever threw at it!
DONT MISS THIS
1.4 sport corsa, did all the work myself, wish i would have finished it off, but i thought im glad i sold when i did
DONT MISS THIS
main reason as scriv will now i didnt build it so just didnt feel like it was mine. Then when the track rod end snapped it all ended in tears!
UNDECIDED
I changed the car to make it how i wanted it to be. Which made it look 100 times better. Got the cover of Total Vauxhall, got the studio photoshoot.
There wasnt more that i could have acheived with this car, bar the LET conversion but the 4k price tag put me off!
I do miss it for shows, but i did 2k miles a year just on dry weekends and shows so hardly ever got to enjoy the car, couldnt afford to run a car that just sat around!

What I class as my first car, nearly bought this back, changed a bit now though.
Miss the RS1800 even more, 2 weeks solid off work and a mate spent a week getting it upto this condition, was a mess when I got it.

i'm not really missing this, cos it was really slow !!!! but to be fair it was fairly clean and it was my 1st car, so it had a bit of sentemental(sp!!) value i suppose....

Here is my old car, wish i never sold her but it just used to sit in the garage and needed someone to drive it and appreciate it, i did 4k miles in 18 months before i sold it and that was to all the shows.
Lost a boat load of cash but it was worth it at the time:
