If money was no object what car would you own;
Here's mine

Do traction engines count? hehe

[Riley Blue]

One that doesn't rust, break down and does over 200mpg.

Hmmm, it could be a long list, but for the sake of brevity, these would have to be considered.

Original D-Type


Although I'd still put up with one of these


Perhaps more dignified would be this 2900 Alfa


But really if I had to pick one, it'd be the old green thing on the left of this shot

I don't normally like helmet wings but I could be tempted by this racing lorry..

I have several, none of them particularly exotic...

Morgan F2 three wheeler.



Bedford Green Goddess.



Some kind of old bus, like this ex-Eastern National Bristol.



Austin A35 Pickup.



And lastly a veteran car of some kind

I go along with Richard and his veteran - ideally one steam powered. I reckon that turning up at an MOT station that has just failed your everyday Kia for head lamp adjustment or a cracked number plate, with one could give you a deal of satisfaction!!

Never really a "correct" answer is there? In the exotica range, an Alfa 8C. I had a ride in one once and have never forgotten it.

But in the realms of affordable cars, a nice early rubber suspension Mini Cooper S fully prepared would be usable, frugal and fun. Then there could be a Riley Pathfinder. Under rated if you ask me as a gentleman's carriage. Oh, the list could go on and on.

[Riley Blue]

lowdrag, your dream car awaits:

No, it's not mine.

Hi

I too like veterans, my friend had his Star at Llandudno the weekend before last, thats a nice little thing. 1899 and still going strong! I think it might be at anglesey with us too this weekend.

Then like said above a steam engine of some sort would be great, I like rollers in general, a foden, and a nice road loco.

Cheers

Dave

Nic, you are causing me some anguish! I can't really make up my mind whether to have this



Or This,



Could you arrange perhaps to send me both of them?
