Being a bit of a wannabe boy racer back in the early ninties mine would have to have been an Astra GTE. Couldn't afford the insurance on one when ipassed my test though.

A Daimler Dart, A Jensen Interceptor or an Aston Martin DB4 - we're talking mid sixties and before James Bond drove an Aston Martin

Countach or 911. I got a 911 when I was 30, job done.

Here it is.

Sold it a long time ago, got it out of my system. Don't think I'll worry about the Lamborghini.

Always wanted an original Audi Quattro after first seeing one after its release in 1980, by 1994 I was the proud owner of a 1990 Model Year 20v version, just wish I had kept it.

Always wanted a 2CV or oldCitroen DS. Have been the proud owner of 2 2CVs in the last 20 years. Now have a BMW, but really want another 2CV!!

I had one many moons ago, I'm hankering for a Mehari now. found a place near Marseilles that sells them with all necessary MOTs and paperwork etc.

Oh I had a list that a lottery win couldn't cope with but will narrow it down!
Datsun 240z
Capri 3.0s mk111
Porsche 924 Le Mans

Actually got a 3.0 Capri mk11 as a first car, a Datsun 280zx and a 300zx to follow. The money I've lost over the years would make me cry if I added it up!
Having said that, I'd blow some more on an old school car now. Possibly a split screen VW camper :)

I had a mk2 GTE, was a f***ing shed, rotten arches, digi dash that didn't show the correct speed, electrics wrapped in cling film etc etc, but i f***ing loved it, was a beast and wish I still had it, keep looking at em on EBAY but i'm too old now :(

Datsun 240z

Brought one after I sold my Quattro as a restoration project, 2 years and £9000 odd later, a pristine Metallic Black 240Z with Gold Alloys, badging & cheatlines, was rolled out of the workshop, sold it just 3 months later to recoup the restoration funds.
