whats your dream car {apart from a 75/zt of course}. - Page 5

Well, if money were no object, like Bolin I'd like a Bristol, either a Blenheim or Fighter.

[It would be interesting to try a Fighter with a large diesel engine. (Shock horror.) but with its low drag and frontal area you could have a luxurious, practical, good looking car capable of say 140 mph and 70 mpg!]

On a more practical level, a late model Renault Alpine would do.

Jaguar XJC or maybe an Aston Martin DBS (just like George Lazenby as 007)

I would love one of those early SL Mercs as well Steve. I saw one advertised advertised not so long ago and the asking price was 56,000 euros. Sadly outta my league. It is my dream car and always be.

To help the planet I would be very green and have a top of the range (Range Rover) with all the bits.

Cheers

Hi Phil, I went to the Goodwood revival in 2005 (I think) and it was the 50th anniversary of the 300SL. There were loads of them there (30+) from all over and one special one being driven by some bloke called Moss

I'd either want a Rover P5B coupe, an Alvis TD/TE/TF21, A Jaguar Mark 9 or a 420G.
