There are a few that have appealed to me.
Nissan Skyline GTR32 Nismo 2010 Bentley Brooklands Coupe (bit of stretch but it is based on the final lorry model) Jensen Interceptor Porsche 928 GTS Iso Grifo Citroen SM Mustang 66 notchback Daimler Double Six VdPCoupe (Posh Jag XJ Series 2 Coupe V12) Ford Escort Mk I or 2 RS Mexico
The AC ME was a good one - loved the styling. Also the hardtop Cobra looks a beaut.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

It's certainly a great car! A buddy of mine had to adjust the valves on a car like this when he was an apprentice in the 80s. To do this, the two cylinder heads had to be removed. He hadn't received any instructions and he was on his own. But somehow he managed it. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/04/25/BA9EEDD6-8B22-4878-A5DF-13CBF9127784.jpg)

Mine would have to be a money no object list: Type 35 Bugatti Bentley 4 1/2 litre E Type Morgan Aeromax
I would settle for having a short drive in each. You can probably still get a few laps of Goodwood in an E-Type. Did it a number of years ago. Along with a few others (DB4, 911 Carrera, Lotus Cortina and a few others). ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/04/25/DSC_3516.jpg) Just noticed this and a few other photos from the day was nearly 9 years ago - organised by my barber (a petrolhead) for several of his customers.

Austin 7 Chummy or C cab van Pre war Singer or Riley two seater E Type Mk II Jag Early Lotus Elan Porsche 911 2.7 Targa If I had the space I would likely own one or two of those. In the meantime will exercise in turn the three I have on shopping or exercise trips. I'm at a loss to wonder why all our Classics new or old have suddenly become highly unreliable and dangerous though

. I'm at a loss to wonder why all our Classics new or old have suddenly become highly unreliable and dangerous though   It does make me chuckle how wound up some are getting. My Morgan is far more reliable and far better maintained than the £500 Vauxhall Corsa sat on my drive.....

For me, it has to be a 2 CV
Specially a Plums and Custard Dolly from the 1980s.
Should ave bought one new in the 80s but the (then) Mrs Fat Wolfie refused to be seen dead in one. So I bought a new 3 door Escort 1.1 Pop instead, starting an life long loathing of the Blue Oval.
Am currently “negotiating” with the current Mrs FW to get permission to secure one. Have my eyes on a couple but pandemic lockdown has rather spoilt progress.
