.... what car would you buy and why? Just trying to while away the 9 days until the next away game and 12 days for the next home game. I would avoid a very loud and flashy car like the Lamborghini Aventador (approx £250) where most heads would turn to look and be envious, disgusted or even disinterrested. A classy car like the Aston Martin Vantage is probably the one for me. Those that know anything about cars would know that you've chosen quality and those that don't would say it's a nice colour! I suppose the Bond association with the brand probably plays a part in my choice somewhere in my psyche. What's your choice and what does it say about you?
A 1980's beautifully restored Porsche 911 SC. Probably the best car ever to be produced imo. The lines are to kill for. Forget the Ferraris and Lambos, they are totally unreliable. I drove a Lambo Countach once but never again, it was terrible, honestly.
Would have to be an Aston Martin DB5,or the old E-Type Jag.Probably the most iconic designs ever,absolutely gorgeous!
My old man had an E Type too back in the day. It was brand new, and he too didn't like it. Not sure why but he didn't.
It was British, what did you expect?... In 1975 I was offered by a workmate a Black E-Type Mkll with the Reg No. 6 REV, previously had been owned by a vicar. My mate wanted £1,600 but I couldn't quite afford it. Similar models are selling today at £30,000 upwards. Hindsight is a wonderful thing...
I bought it for $25000 about 20 years ago, kept for the summer and sold it back to the garage I bought it from for a bit less!! (it was a V11 by then) By the way it was brown, looked like a giant turd. If I were to buy any car now It would have to be an Aston.
Overfinch Range Rover Autobiography, UBB Mustang, DB10, Bentley GTC, Ferrari GT250, VW Golf GTI (8 valve, UK bumpers), 3.0 GXL Capri, Audi Quattro SWB, how many can I have?
Ooooh ta! Alfa 8c, M5 circa 1990, Rover 3.5 coupe (the one with the buick engine), Dodge Challenger, Bullit Mustang, Camaro SS ('69), Maserati Murak SS, Skyline GTR, Golf R32, Triumph GT6, Triumph Stag, Nissan 280Z, Monaro, AC Cobra,
Ferrari 246GTS, Ferrari 458 Speciale, Ferrari 458 Spider, Porsche 997 GT3rs 4:0ltr, Citroen DS19, Ariel Atom supercharged. I have owned (and currently have) one of the above. None too manically avant garde, but some of the best drivers cars ever made.
The last time I was in Florida, 2 years ago, I hired this baby. please log in to view this image It was a beast and drove like you were sitting in your armchair. Totally unsuitable for England though. ( You'd also find yourself being targeted by the anti 4x4 Nazi's too. )
350mph 0-60 in 1.4Seconds No time to be anyone Currently I have a Saab 93 Aero Hot with Maptun chip set Stage 3 if took it to Stage 5 then it's 350 bhp Currently on performance it's faster than my partners M3 so I have little desire for any other car ... I have fulfilled by petrol head For France we jointly have a Renault Grand Espace 3.5 V6 and again for French roads can't beat that ... A armchair 11 years old that boosts 7 people between a-b brilliantly Brilliant car for £1400 that is very quick and paid for itself in 3 trips compared to hire cars It has the same engine as Nissan Z350 Do not touch any other Espace model Both my cars were less than my partners service and repair bills on her BMW so with cars money is the object IMO
