I forgot to tell you all about my euromillions win.
Anyway - I want a "new" rally inspired toy to... well... just to fanny about in really. Which should I get myself for Christmas? Price isn't really important, as I am now pure minted.
1. Kimera EV037.
2. Tuthill 911K. 11krpms and super light.
3. MST Mk1 Evo. 2.5 or 2.7 millington.
4. MST Mk2. 2.5 or 2.7 millington.
5. Lister Bell Stratos. With at least a 3.2 V6 busso
6. 6R4. A real one. Cheating a bit, but hey - it's my poll
7. Prodrive P25
8. Alfaholics GTA-R 290
9. Tolman Sunbeam Lotus. First wild-ride was in a Sunny Lotus : special car to me. 265 bhp. .
10. Placeholder for the first whiner that whines in a whiney manner about one I forgot.
I'm not sure you highlighted this miss with sufficient huffy incredulity

So much want, it is a tough choice, but the 911K has quickly become the first car I'd be making calls about as soon as my numbers came in.
Edit - Maturo are also doing an 037, was on TLBS the other day.

You wanker, how dare you forget about the mighty lancia delta, you purple tin drinking, iron brew bar(incorrect spelling intentional to offend) eating, tyre painting idiot
Better? Or too much? Let me know do I can tailor my level of offensiveness to your needs

Much better - you're definitely in contention now - lets see if some other nobber comes up with a better idea / whinier delivery.

Do you fit in that?
Probably not, but it is Mik with the lottery win, not me. I'll just stand next to it. And apart from the Escorts (nope, not a chance) I doubt I'll fit in any of them.

Since seeing Henry Catchpole review the Alfaholics Giulia Super R 270 thingy, it's probably my favourite restomod now. I'm guessing because HC can fit in it, there's a decent chance you get sit behind the drivers wheel too Alex!

TBF, with a lotto win I'm sure these companies can do lots of clever things with lowered floors etc when given a blank cheque.

Never has a potentially epic and timely video been so ruined by shit weather (and wholly unsuitable for said conditions Cooper Rally Classic Tarmac CT01 tyres).

Watched earlier. It looks a fiesty bastard in the wet. Couple of times you can hear it just coming on cam when he short shifts. Id love to hear it fully rung out.
