I like all sorts to be honest, although over time I find that my preferences drift further and further back in the 20th century, ideally open-topped rather than saloons, hence buying the tourer. The more oddball the better. No one car stands out for me in particular, just a general look and feel of the mid 1920s appeals to me most right now.

Citroen Traction Avant, or high-headlight DS, without the auxiliary lights.

I'm with Rick, it's a 20s open two-seater for me.

Well I wouldn't choose to drive 400 miles in a day in it but it goes well (so long as you feed it) and call me old fashioned but I like it...

This Squire and the SS100 ticks all the boxes for me.
