Although I'll also take a well sorted Scania V8 any day of the week.
Stretching a point and combining some of the previous posts,
50 to 100 TVRs of various models in a tunnel is a great sound.
When you get them going in both directions through a tunnel the combined
sound is excellent.
Saw (& heard) Agostini on this at Olivers Mount years ago. The hairs on me neck still stand up when I just think about it.
mg midget 1500, stainless pipes, tunnel 🙂
not a massive fan of V8/10/12, much prefer slower reving egines.

Escort RS 1800 BDA[/url]. Unbeatable, hearing it bark through the forests
Closely followed (aurally) by the Metro 6r4.
End of thread!
2 stoke scooter, you have to love the sewing machine sound.
But seriously, my 1972 MGB sounds very nice with the 4 cyclider engine and straight pipes. Or my friends old 5l v12 jag again with straight pipes sounded lovely untill he blew the head gasket.
I think this is one of the best sounding cars>

I 2nd the Napier Deltic - pluttery chuffing on the west highland line and Collared doves combine to make the unique sound of home.
I also like my transit TD at 50 mph, it sounds like a fire engine.
Hemi cuda..... one of the finest engines ever made
