Don't have a daily ride as such. My driveway is more like a car B&B than a place to park my pride and joy!
Have a 1974 Mini 1000 with 31,000 but I don't drive it because I don't trust myself!
Have been running about in a Mitsubishi Evo 7 the past few weeks but it isn't mine, its a friends. Like the performance, handling and admiring glances. Don't like the bumpy ride and persistant knock from front suspension! (Changed shock absorbers, strut top bearings, anti roll bar links and bushes) In recent past had the use of a Porsche boxster. It was a LHD 2.5. I realise boxsters get a hard time as poor mans Porsches but I quite enjoyed it!
If anyone would insure me personally I'd buy a Nissan 350z. Think it is a great car and I can't understand why so few people have bought one! In an ideal world I'd have a TVR Cerbera but I'd kill myself so I won't bother asking Santa until I am more sensible!
Like Classics too but haven't had one for a while, tend to run them in Summer so its not as cold when you have to change the points and condenser at the side of the road! Have had loads of Minis, a 1968 Mk1 Escort I put a 2.1 Pinto in and a Marcos 3 litre! It had a Plywood chassis, it was mental! A Talbot Sunbeam Ti and a Vauxhall Chevette with a Pinto engine in it (Not fitted by me).
