Your car - before and after bubba
I drove a Ford KA and zoomed about recklessly before I had Katie! (well...maybe not recklessly 🙂 ) My car was full of sweetie wrappers, tapes and books... heeheeheee how times have changed!!!
I'm a Vauxhall Meriva girl, and have blankets, singin toys and tissues etc, rolling about the car now!!!
I used to hate those 'baby on board' signs, and now I let my ladybird one from M&P swing with pride :D:D
I drove a Mini CooperS, now I drive a Mazda RX8. Still whizz about, Millie seems to like it, she will only go to sleep if you are going over about 40mph.
I still have the same car peugeot 206 convertable, totally un child friendly, real pain in the ass.... carseat has to go in front meaning cant have any other passengers!! looking into selling it... 😢
I used to have an Audi A3 16V Sport...boy i raced a few people at lights, mainly men!!! Hehehe. Now i have a Toyota Rav4. Lovely but not sporty at all. Elani seems to like it though, well now she has a big girl seat! I have toys, a blanket, rice cakes, tissues and the buggy all in my car and i drive it for work!!! Hmmmmmm
We traded in our Ford Sierra for a Daewoo Lanos (wow some hot wheels..for a 60 year old LOL) when we had Charlotte then upgraded to a Mondeo Estate Zetec. Not the most super cool wheels ever are they!!! I must admit though our car can go scarily quickly to say it is the size of a hurst!! 😉
We used to have a 3 door Corsa and lasted about 4 weeks after Ethan was born 'til we decided we reeeeeally needed a 5 door car. Getting the car seat in an out was a nightmare and Ethan's pushchair only just fit in the boot and when we went shopping we had to put it all in the front foot well!
We exchanged it for a 5 door MG ZR+, more sporty but waaaay more practical! We got a great trade in price as we both work for a large motor dealer.
We too take great pride in our 'Cheeky Monkey On Board' sign!

we used to have a sporty black 3 door peugeot 206 - but sold it for a 5 door Ford Focus in silver! How boring is that. I also used to have my own car; Citroen Saxo the ones that the chavs drive to "a meet" - it was soooooooo whizzy.
I didn't learn until I was a mummy but my first car was a Nova,then I had a 106xsi and I now have a Renault 5 gt turbo. It's bright pink with 17" alloys,many modifications and leather interior (and yes 3 door) so not your typical practical family car but the kids at playgroup LOVE it!
I had a K reg clio before Joseph, went car less for nearly 3 years and now have a Y reg Fiesta. Not much difference on the size but then there is just me and him
My first car was a 1989 Hyundai Excell Hatchback, I was 19 and Bryce was 4 months old when we got that car.
Now I have a beautiful 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan.
So you see all of my cars have had kids stuff stuffed into them! 😉 🙃
