Thread: Your Dream Wheels?

Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Mk II. (Metallic dark brown).

Not expensive to buy, but very costly to maintain.

Mercedes CK GTR. 2200 pounds, 655 hp

Both nice choices and I guess readily available if minted and just the squeeze to chauffeur

Great think about those huge 50s American finned canoes could fit dog granny surfboard 3 kids in the trunk, fan club in huge roomy rear seats and 3 in comfort at the front, of course gas too cheap to notice.I drove a few in Florida and Cuba very juicy.

If you like to see such cars great museum Caramulo near Tondela in central Portugal

Beaulieu in Hampshire UK etc
La Habana Cuba has a few inreasingly run dwn 50-60s US cars parked in city centre for tourists and photo ops, my fave the last one aka Loppamobile

Sorry, David not a fan of those. I'd rather have a 4-6 berth motor home, which probably handles better.

My dream car has always been a Jaguar XK140:



However, I'm fast running out of time to be able to own one.

I don't believe there's a car out there that is more beautiful than a Ferrari 458 Italia.

Only possible because of Japanese mechanical transplants in most cases.

Beauty car David as is the 59 Caddy and the 61 bubble window Impala.

Dream cars are a young mans game imo, most take far too much fettling. Now i'm old i just want to get in, turn it on and feel comfortable, kind of like my women but not necessarily in that order.

Armstrong. Beetles are awful things, slow, noisy uncomfortable and couldn't pull the skin off custard.

True Mike. Many hold on to their youth as they remember them. I can't deny it as I have bought a few cars that were what I had in High School. I do like the new tech cars but would prefer still to this date, pop a hood and work on it. Nowadays it's Hilux, moto and now my ATV. I will never give up wrenching on things. It's relaxing. My wife's car is the sit down and start car, boring bur it serves a purpose

and





or maybe




or perhaps

^ You don't fancy a Valiant, Tax?

are you referring to that chest wig chariot that pissflaps claims to own?

Runners up to the Chevy Impala

The Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato is rather nice.

I'd like an AC, not one of those stupid slippers with no top.
