Three Car Fleet

Post by 16vCento »

Go on then, im sure we've done this before but I'm bored, any three cars you like, no budget just for shits 'n' gigs.
Be interesting to look back on in ten years and see what a difference the electric revolution has made to this!

I'd have a V60 Polestar (Previous gen 3.0T6) for my daily drive and tow car. Reliable, safe but can still get a decent move on and a good looking car (to my eyes at least)

X150 XKR 5.0 for the fun car as still 4 seats (just) and the noise is just superb, they also smell like a proper car still which is rare nowadays.

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

Absolutely, if I had the space and money all 3 would be outside now, hopefully when we move I'll have 2 of the 3 but the Activa is a struggle. If I won £1m I'd still buy the same!

Any dream garage that doesn't include a McLaren F1 is doing it wrong

I'll take a W111 280SE coupe in black over tan, VW ID.Buzz for family duties and an Eagle E-type for my dad (don't need three cars).

Likewise.
V8 coupe - check
Stupid 4x4 - check
City car - check

Otherwise just give me an Enzo, Valkyrie and 911 Speedster.

The only reason for an XF is to run another V8 whilst I still can. Otherwise the ST fits the bill for having a riot in a car where parts still cost a sensible amount of money.

I reckon I could go with an all Porsche line up:

Taycan Turbo daily driver
Panamera turbo S Estate for mtb bike trips
911 GT3 RS for fun

Or

Audi RS6 for daily/trips
Mercedes Grosser 600 for cruising
Mk1 Exige for fun

I’d want to find a way to get a BMW and a silly pick up in there though.

McLaren F1 obvs

Brabus 800. Nope changed my mind already, need a classic. Mechatronik Mercedes instead, a W111.

BAC Mono to get away from the missus.

Argh - impossible thread. As soon as I type this I will change my mind. 🙁

Assuming I don’t need to worry about a car for mrs mik:

1. CarreraGT on MPS4S’s
2. Panamera Turbo estate a la RichB
3. Tarmac spec 6R4

I do miss our Disco4 HSE from a not-remotely-sporting-but-interesting-to-pilot perspective.
