Good afternoon from sunny Dubai.
So last night, having nothing better to do, i started thinking about what car/cars I would buy if money was no object all manner of cars drited in and out, classic porsche, an old ferrari or aston, maybe a gullwing mercedes or a 635Csi beemer, a big 6 healey, or a proper shelby cobra, an e type or an xk 120. The list just went on and on.Then it came to me in a vision, admittedly aided by a very good South African pinot noire, I would buy not one but two more Morgans, now your all thinking has he gone mad? Has been out in the Dubai sun too long? No not yet, so below are the 2 Morgans I would buy
# 1 Please Mr Morgan build me a speedster on the new aluminium chasis, drop that lovely 3 litre BM mill under the bonnet and add a 6 speed manual gearbox.
#2 Knock together for me a little 3 wheeler, but please fit it with that noisy smelly S&S motor but properly fettled please.
Put those with my current 2010 Roadster and id be a very happy camper.
lets start a thread what would you choose?

Proper old school Lambo - Countach or Diablo - bedroom wall stuff from when I was a kid or a Maserati 250F race car - pure gorgeous!
Cheers, Paul

I'm constrained by space (very small drive), but if I had more space I'd buy a 4x4 transit van. Love driving vans.....
Money no object I'd buy an old +8 and get it prepped for 'Street Eliminator' drag racing (2000+bhp but road legal) and then get an old F type and replace the running gear with a Triumph Rocket 3 drive train.

Ever since I was about 10 years old I've hankered after a Gordon Keeble. Almost got one a few years ago but now well out of my price range.

Either a Lotus 49 or Maserati 250F would do. Not fussy really.

Aston Martin DB4 Zagato
Type 35 Bugatti
Or if the wallet wouldn't stretch to both .... I'd trade the Bug for a Morgan +8 .... but made with a tuned version of the Edward Turner 2.5litre Daimler V8 rather than the Rover one.

For me it would be a brand new Morris Minor complete with a starting handle.
Why is there only one monopolies commission??
