Same here. Although everytime I think about this I realise that its the life style I want. The money, freedom and time to do it.

I want the cars, I cant settle for one. I want the garage to keep them in. The time and money to use them and the time to tinker and clean them!!

NigeEss - 6/4/14 at 08:04 PM

1980's Aston V8 Vantage 580 xpack.

coozer - 6/4/14 at 08:20 PM

WW2 Willys MB

But more likely the next one I build..

If I win the lottery I'll be up to Stonygate with a carrier bag full of cash in my combat gear to see if they will sell me an Aston DB9

JoelP - 6/4/14 at 08:23 PM

Something that looks like a db5 but goes like a gtr.

austin man - 6/4/14 at 08:30 PM

would have to be a nicely sorted Mk1 Escort Mexico

bob - 6/4/14 at 08:30 PM

Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato.

HappyFather - 6/4/14 at 08:42 PM

Lancia Stratos Grp4
No doubt!
Even a replica kit would make me happy!

brum_gustavo - 6/4/14 at 08:51 PM

67 Mustang fastback, beautiful, the fact it was built o the Falcon platform makes it even more amazing... second best would be my ownIVA“d Locost (almost there...)

mark chandler - 6/4/14 at 09:14 PM

db4 superleggera

Stripped of bumpers of course

Mclaren F1 or a Jaguar XJ220

chrism - 6/4/14 at 09:16 PM

Porsche 959.

morcus - 6/4/14 at 09:23 PM

The problem is all the beautiful cars won't go as well as you'd like. a Jenson Interceptor though would be pretty high on my list, but with slightly modernised running gear.

nick205 - 6/4/14 at 09:42 PM

Ferrari 280GTO (and the wallet to run it as a daily driver)

The one car I have always wanted and will probably always want is the corvette from "Corvette Summer"

Minivan. It was my first legal road vehicle and would love another. There is a great calm in having a slow vehicle and knowing you'll get there when you arrive.....

Good call - I'd say a Dauer 962 Road Car.

Agriv8 - 7/4/14 at 07:45 AM

at the moment Eagle Speedster

Jag e type looks modern ( ish ) running gear.

ATB Agriv8

jossey - 7/4/14 at 07:54 AM

Gt500 Ellanor

loggyboy - 7/4/14 at 08:21 AM

Through my teens it was the Ferrari Testarossa or the 512 TR. But I would really struggle these days to choose 1 car.

daveb666 - 7/4/14 at 08:44 AM

Ferrari 355 in Yellow.

Ivan - 7/4/14 at 09:26 AM

Got mine already - Cobra Replica (or real)

Second Choices - Porsche Cayman and/or Lotus 23 and/or Lola T70 and/or GT40 - Replicas for the last 3 are fine.

Simon - 7/4/14 at 03:39 PM

Always wanted a T-Bucket and there was only ever one I wanted - Andromeda

ATB

Mr C - 7/4/14 at 04:21 PM

A veyron, sports version. Then I'd sell it and get a SLS black GT3 version, MP412C, P1, a Roller, R35GTR Lichfield, V8 Atom, Top spec Range Rover for the school runs, RS4 station hack and a Micra for the missus.

Jed - 7/4/14 at 07:30 PM

My initial thought was that I would love a Stratos but I think my choice would be a Singer 911.

Hellfire - 7/4/14 at 07:42 PM

Chevrolet Corvette C1

I am just REALLY starting to get that

driving round in convoluted circles is a different matter obviously!

TheGiantTribble - 7/4/14 at 09:20 PM

Jaguar D type, long nosed with the fin behind the head rest

Sold my 1972 one back in about 1979 for 600 quid

Bilsteins all round went like stink on standard carb beautiful car in diamond white

I'd have it back in a heartbeat

Adamirish - 25/1/17 at 10:08 PM

Holy thread ressurection batman!

My dream car though would either be a porsche 997 GT3RS 4.0. Absoulute motoring perfection for me.

OR

As posted above, the eagle speedster. The most beautiful car I have ever seen. The only car I have ever set eyes on and my jaw dropped. Absolutely stunning car. £500k though? Ouch!
