:D Your dream car? Mine is a Corvette. Yup, I know they're not expensive, but I love the shape and the performance, and I love Chevrolet. I think Corvettes are good bang for buck. My friend's dad got his 1998 Corvette for 20,000 UK pounds, brand new, and now after five years the resell value is about 18,000 UK pounds.


5.7L V8 engine, 405 hp. Sheer pleasure to drive.

Isn't it true you can only get the Corvettes in left-hand drive? That would annoy the life out of me.

My ultimate car? No need for a supercar, just a nice Focus RS for me please :D

LOL

I know someone who did just that (not the NTL md's but another company MD) and he was due to go on holiday in his new Audi S6!! - Hi. Mr.O :wavey: (You know who you are!)

Personnally I would have the Aston above - Just need to check I can get my golf clubs in the boot cos they don't fit in my Merc.

2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am with Ram Air...

or, for the ULTIMATE
Dodge M4S
Pontiac Banshee (1989 version)


Or, Veilside Skyline (1200hp version)

for a 'vette? has to be the 1988 Stingray, in black

Ooooh, what to choose from...

Either a Ford Mustang, Dodge Viper or a Skyline GR.

But to be honest, I'm more likely to find the wheels still on my New Mini Cooper with Alpine radio. :D

yes please!!!
Or perhaps the DB4GT Zagato (only built 19 of them)
or a D type

or what about that Bentley that some bloke has put a RR Merlin into and broke some british speed records that stood for years (apologies, but I caught the end of it on the local Anglia news the other night)

I have simple tastes. A Honda S2000, Civic Type R or a Honda NSX will do just fine (except I don't fit into the NSX:cry: ) So it will have to be one of the other two that I buy next.
Yes, I like Hondas (Acuras, if your name is Jerrek)
....actually, I've always had an eye for Porches, but I can't justify the price:(

whats the car called with the tilting mechanism that leans into corners? Saw it on Top Gear recently - it put a HUGE grin on the presenters face - I'd love to have a go in one.
