My first car was a LX Torana hatch with a good ol' 202 and an m20 4sp. Trashed it which was a shame. Went onto LH with a 350 and later a LX SS with a 253 before moving onto a VK Director (brilliant top end in that thing), VXII SS and now a VYII SS. God knows how many less note worthy cars were inbetween the above.

VE SSV
My first car was VN calais v6 bought 2 years ago...
It was stolen 1 year ago, so upgraded to VT Calais v6. That car felt a bit too slow after the worked VN, so on monday upgraded to VX Calais V8.

I think its Calais forever for me

1992 VP Vacationer
mine was the car im driving today, 1992 VP. havent had many troubles with it as such, the only major one's were my fault (bent axle, bent wheel, scratched to s h i t (backwards thru a barbed wire fence :p))

apart from that, the only thing buggin me is the front suspension is squeaky as a mofo when i hit bumps or are going over about 90km/h, spose its just getting old and wearing out, ill just replace it all when i lower my car and get my 17's i guess...

My first Holden was a 1970 HG 350ci GTS Monaro back in 1974. Since then I've owned at least 1 each of... HQ Kingswood, HQ Statesman De-Ville, FC, FB, EK, EJ, EH, HR & HT. Only owned 1 Torana, it being a 1978 Sunbird.
