Cadillac Seville - 1981 to 2003

The Seville was metallic blue with light blue-grey leather upholstery.

It is a 1979 right-hand drive with a 5.7 litre fuel-injection V8 engine managed by a computer. Very reliable, always starts first time, even if I haven't used it for months.

It has the best turning circle of any car I have driven, almost like a London taxicab.

So it uses a bit of petrol, but I don't go anywhere, so it doesn't matter. The other year I only drove 32 miles between MOTs.

After driving it for 22 years, it was a bit tired and we both needed a change.
