Amazing cars on here.

Good to see what people have owned too.

I may bring out the normal 'if i won the lottery'

Oh and:

Absolutely love these, nearly bought one before I bought the Lupo...

Part of me still wishes I had!

Takes a brave man to drive that!

..and everyday? The local bill would love that exhaust, and might question the slick tyres. :lol:

Good it would be fun though setting off every car alarm within a 3 mile radius , not sure where i would be putting my tools and laptop for work and i seriously doubt 40p per mile i can claim would cover the running costs :lol: :lol:

Daily makes a huge difference, vie always had a think for french tin boxes and a turbo 2 just wouldn't work as a daily so

It has to be a gordini

A daily huh? I'd take myself back 16 years to 1994 and get myself another E21. Trouble is, these have recently enjoyed a steep climb in price. The cars that I've let slip through my fingers...

Two good choices there, but the road spec Turbo 2 (another of my faves) was only 165hp or so, so it should be totally useable :wacko:

No, no, no. In 1994 I owned a 1980 (reg 1st Jan 1980) E21 316 with the 1600cc engine and 4-speed 'box. Here it is

With a set of coilovers and wide 14s, it would have looked mint.

:)

I traded up in 1995 to an E30 318is

IDGM turbo 2 would be a nightmare to fix with the rarity of parts , definatley useable apart from that fact though.

Who mentioned reliability in this fantasy world we're in? All these motors will he 100% perfect lol

...but most of the posts in here are ignoring the fact that it was one you could use daily.

It cant be classed as a daily if your spending hours a day searching for a specific part from froggy land while it sits in the garage and your getting the bus everywhere :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Toyota century , full state spec with every extra in v8 format , basically an old school lexus but cooler and has the risk of dragon tattoo'd men jumping out of it to cut a finger off for disrespecting their boss.

Thats a fair point. . .

I would go for something like a lotus carlton, would that be considered a classic?
