    Scoobies are uber cool. Utterly so. They look retro-90’s Jap wrong. I always thought that until I drove one and the hackles on the back of my neck rose and I actually felt scared driving a car for the first time. Scared until I shook my head and held the gear for as long as possible.

    Cayenne’s have a fatwah against anyone who owns one. They are wrong. Very very wrong. Uglier than a sanyong rong rongle or whatever its called….

    I always feel scared driving a car for the fist time, bad memories of sitting on my dads enfield bullet and not having a clue how to use a clutch,, took about 20 attempts! After which the throttle stuck full open mid corner!

    Surely you can get a better bowler/ race ready landy than that for 14k?

    The Honda S2000. Crazy,non-turbo engine,lively handling. Cheaper,more reliable than a Boxster.

    Just the job for collecting a kitchen from IKEA

    Oh and for added impracticality get them to fit a GSX-R 1000 engine into it

    Some choices from me….
    As your daily drivers; An Aston V600 Vantage Le Mans and a Bentley Continental T Le Mans

    For popping to the shops; a Works Cooper (My mother had one of these as her first car….lucky girl!)

    Weekend away car; A DB4 GT Zagato

    Track day car? Why, a Blower, of course!

    And, to round off a near perfect garage, an Airportable…!

    i saw a bently a few months back on a bivy trip to Rutland, those things are enormous, I mean huge, not just big, they dwarf most 4×4’s and the rear bumper was fitted in a seperate post code to the engine.

    A prestige classic like a ferrari, bentley, aston etc whilst lovely will literally bleed you dry. Something a bit less glam would be the order of the day imo.

    thisisnotaspoon, Oscar India, widebody kit , or POW spec?

    The Blowers are amazing. Their performance, to this day, is eye opening! I’ve been lucky enough to have a go in a couple and that will remain with me! (Never allowed to drive them though! :()

    How about a nice Eagle E-Type as well? Perhaps an E-Type Low Drag, too…..

    An Italian car of the Seventies, you will be broken and destitute in months, but women will throw themselves at you (possibly)

    I raise the stakes 10 million per cent. A Citroen DS Estate. Hearse. In White. I mean come on – a white French hearse….

    Hyper cool – looks practical enough to take bikes, but of course it will never get anywhere at all as it is a French car, with expensive technology that breaks often.

    aways fancied a landy, like mountaibiking but without the fitness or need for functioning knees.

    If I had way too much cash i’d get one of these too.

    Flashy; that Aston DB4 is a car you could lick…

    Sensuous, is the word, I think….

    I can’t quite believe it. Two pictures of Capris and one was the boooring 2.0S and the other the crass 2.8i.

    Surely it should the the 3.0S just like the one in The Professionals?

    Or, as an alternative…

    thisisnotaspoon

    yes, but the 2.0s is a bit mroe affordable, and the 2.8i isn’t just any 2.8 🙂

    Nice pictures boys….

    I recognise that MG metro 6R4. E264 AAM Sam Nelsons old car, I built it from the ground up, drove it a few times….. David Appleby is driving it in that picture….. A blast from the past, I wonder where she is now?

    Lancia Delta Integrale…. did somebody say a “a little too practical”? I had one of those and it was falling apart all time, absolutely the most fun I have had on 4 wheels….. totally bonkers….. just seeing one makes my kidneys hurt, they generate some pretty wild cornering grip…. sold it before I killed myself or someone else!

    Renault Alpines are just gorgeous aren’t they……….

    And everyone should own a VW camper Van at some stage in their life……

    Hammer.

    All mini running gear plus GRP monocoque, I’ve had 3 of them (pics not mine – I’ve none to hand) , great fun weighs nothing, 125mph+ and 65mpg depending on the choice of engine+gearbox.
    About a foot lower than a mini,noisy, windup windows if you’re lucky and leaked like a sieve when it rained 🙂
