I have owned a 1275GT like that one (in bright yellow) and an XR2 like the one in flip's post (but in gunmetal grey and I swapped the red trim for blue).
Them were the days.
I occasionally look at older cars but the money they go for is mad. I think I would have a 'The Professionals' 3.0S Capri if I got anythign though.
Really need one of these in my life!
the only cool car my dad has owned since I was born, probably why I drive a 106 gti now it's the only car that I've been in since that feels the same amount of fun
My Volvo;
Mmm
My toys...


See thats where I'm struggling, it's a hoot at the moment, and droping a 1.4 k-series, uprating the springs/dampers would probably be 90% as good, but cost peanuts.
Loinheart, out of intrest, what engine/gearbox is that? And how much cutting and welding did it need?
I've seen a few people fabircating entire transmission tunnles, and others saying the T9 just drops straight in.
That orange mini is bad ass.
it was more fun than you can shake a stick at

My father wrote one of those off. Replaced it with the 2.8i in that two-tone blue/silver they did.
Replaced that with an ur Quattro. And then another.
He toyed with an RS500 Cosworth, but stayed with the Audi.
Second Quattro replaced with an Audi 100 (he ran out of money). There was something *special* about this thing - it came from Dave Sutton Motorsport, the then preparers of works Audi rally cars. It looked cr*p but went like **** off a stick..!
got 100mph & 72bhp on the rollers that day!





Deposit paid, looks like I'm in with both feet!!!
Good choice Wrighty, right bit of kit.
Hope petrol prices don't go 'too' high.
RB's are proper weapons!
I know a lad who had one,cost him £15 from chesterfield to matlock bath 1 way!!
He sold it to buy a new age STI,had it 2 months,decided he didn't like it so bought his old 320 back!!
I looked at and tested a new age, far more refined with nice bits of electronic gadgetry but something wasn't just right! Love my current preza but just wanted one final fling with a "proper" one before I go old sensible and close to bankrupt. Bring on the miles!!
