Try, as Simon, to just pick 5...or 3 or even just one...then it starts to be tricky juggle

Mmmmh, difficult.

My ideas:
1. A Series Land Rover. What else? thumbs
2. A proper getaway film-car (Steve McQueens Mustang Fastback, Plymouth Cuda, Blues Brother's police car...) For the cool moments in life! cop
3. A Lada Taiga to destroy in the woods. Great fun! joy

I don't think the LR 101 qualifies as a ' car ' laugh

That Lotus might even tempt me though.. thumbs

Another icon that fits into the 'must own once' is a Jeep. Whether a vintage Willys or a new Wrangler, there is something iconic about that soft top 4WD vehicle.

No 'real' LR counts as a car Richard! Dual purpose vehicle, yes (until the muppets in power did away with that designation). The 101 is actually not that big - tall yes, but shorter than a 110... And smaller than the original Series FC models.

The Europa - nearly bought one back in the early 80s. Will see if I can scan the photo. Car far more capable than me, probably now, certainly back in the early 80s laugh2

Cheers,

I walked past a black Europa that was parked up in Le Touquet 10 days ago, it didn't half look low and lean.
