Something big and practical I suppose - cayenne turbo maybe. Would prefer a hummer h1 or Lamborghini lm002 if we don't need to worry about being sensible.

Xantia Activa for my garage queen/sunday car which would be kept forever and just looked after, no mods all standard.
Bonjour

I met the father and son from blautos who have now performed several V6 RHD conversions. They convinced me that I want one too :D

I’d want to find a way to get a BMW and a silly pick up in there though.
Would it be cheating if you held three cars in proxy for the munchkin? Just until he was old enough to drive, obviously.

if that’s allowed, then maybe I need to have a chat with the missus about how we should have another 2 or 3 of them....!

I did watch it but I've seen enough reviews on those cars to know I'd be ordering one, should my lottery every come up.

Mine will be in 70s brown with sand velour interior, and as stealthy as they can make it. Fitted with the 4.0.

Don't see why not. Rules don't specify that it is per household, could be per member.

I love these threads - real insight into everyone's car likes.

And Kudos to us for not defaulting to an F1 as first choice...

Edit - apart from Pete and Speedingfine obvs... :lol:

Having been for a very muddy run I feel I might swap out my Swedes.

Land Cruiser
RS6 Avant
911 GTS

An F1, whilst a thing to admire, is so ludicrously expensive it is barely something one would drive

Good shout. I'd almost forgotten about these. Would be very hard to pick between a CGT and a Zonda F. As the Porsche is only available in LHD it might even by the Pagani that would pip it.

That Singer video by Henry gives me the wibbles but I'd have to have the extendable spoiler swapped for a ducktail - it ruins the whole illusion of it not being a 964 for me.

Hard to omit something like a Miura, 250GTO or LM or something with real 'heritage' but I think on balance I'd probably (until I change my mind in 5 mins time) go with:

Zonda F
Viper Green Singer 4.0 mit ducktail
FF RR Supercharged

[mention]Gavin[/mention] I took “no budget” to mean “imagine money is no object”. In which case I am happy to stack the imaginary miles on my imaginary CGT.

One of these blatted past me in the opposite direction at the weekend. Sounded epic even with the windows up.

The 700hp DBS Superleggera with its switchable exhaust that I passed shortly before was so quiet as to be inaudible by comparison.
