How old were you when you got your driver's license? Did you have your own car?

I was 16 when I got my driver's license, 22 when I got my first car (given to me by Marie's dad), about 35 when I bought my first car that wasn't given to me, and finally 57 when I bought my first NEW car.
Cars were not really a priority in my life. If it ran it was good enough for me. Even though I didn't get my license until I was 16 I actually started driving when I was eight years old. It was a tractor and it was set at the slowest speed so that all I really had to do was to steer it between the bales of hay in the field.
