Mine are: -
1) A Volkswagen Beetle (not the modern one)
2) An original Mini, preferably a Cooper (again, not the modern version)
3) A 911 (manual 2WD, non cabrio, doesn't matter which year but the ideal would be an aircooled model)
4) Westfield or Caterham (bugs in your teeth model - no screens and goggles a must)
5) A V8 Mustang (must be a manual and preferably a pre-1974)
Excellent list. The only change I would make is to replace #2 with the "PLUS 8 PLUS" from Isis Imports. (Plus 8 with 400HP Corvette drivetrain).
1961 +4 Four seater
"Crude, but effective."

ooops! I remembered that Morgans aren't allowed on this list. Assuming that the Isis +8+ is still a Morgan, instead I'll go for
2) a 1932 Ford "Little Deuce Coupe" hot rod
1961 +4 Four seater
"Crude, but effective."

That's cheating, you've just been through the Observers Book of Automobiles and ticked something off every other page

This really is a subject that could cause a lot of interesting discussions over a  or two . But I think some of you make it easy for yourself chosing as many as 10  Try, as Simon, to just pick 5...or 3 or even just one...then it starts to be tricky  (I am still working on my list  )
