What is the smallest car you have owned?

Great to see how many different cars show up.

I owned lots of European cars, the smallest cars where 2 Volkswagen Golf GTI's , Pirelli edition, one was red, the other was green. Simular like these:

But the smallest where Austin Mini's, a red one and a black one. Simular like these:

Ejoyed them all!
 
76 Dodge Colt, 86 Mitsu Tradia (pile of crap) and a 88 Shadow 2dr which wasn't all that bad of a car. The Colt was just way too slow though.
 
Some years back I had an Austin Healey Sprite. During the winter I could take the windshield off and slide the car under my work bench.

I think Maxwell Smart drove one of those Sprites, give the passenger seat a sniff and see if it smells like 99

Not quite, but close.
In the pilot, he drove a Ferrari, first couple seasons a Tiger, fitted out like James Bond's Aston Martin. Then an Opel GT, and a Karmann Ghia, I don't recall the order of the last two.
I was always disappointed by "The Saint's" choice. A Volvo? Really?
Edit. Thinking about it, pretty sure the Opel came after the Tiger, then the veedub. His Opel isn't quite as fast as mine.

Cool! You save me rummaging through photos to find my 61' Sprite picture. This was in 69' just graduated from high school. Mine was the same color.

Our daughter had two of them. The first was new, and someone turned in front of her. I searched found a used one, that to was totaled by a nut behind the wheel. She told me the Neon was the better of the cars she owned.

I always wanted one of the original ACR Neons...but since I had my Daytona CS turbo, I never looked all that hard I guess. But I loved the "max power/minimum options and weight" mentality (it's what I love about my Daytona, after all).
 
A cousin had an early 70's Mini and even had the 1200 engine in it until he blew it up! It was still a crazy car with the smaller engine. Watched lots of them do the slalom course and thought it was odd how they all lifted the inside rear tire off the pavement a good foot going into a hard corner lol. This was back in the early 70's....sadly he's gone now. Pretty odd that he was well over 6 foot tall and could still put the seat back enough to be comfortable in it!
