Tough, tough, tough decision to make... I could go around i endless loops all day pondering that but ultimately I know I'd end up back at Ferrari 550 maranello




or a 512 BB, V8 Aston (late 70's), F50...
550...that is a car..........

Genuinely I think I own mine in my Gransport. I would like an MCV but not enough to stump up the extra cash. Can't find one anyway!

Best car I've owned is the 993 turbo. They are now between £75k and £95k as the market has realised that they are special. Wish i'd kept mine (i've had 2!!).

The Gransport is special and I love every drive. I'm not sure where I would go to achieve more without it costing untold fortunes.

Money no object daily driver - Ferrari FF. I don't lust after one but it would do everything I want in all weathers. I see from PH that Chris Harris is finding this out!

From the sublime to the ridiculous:-

Alfa Romeo 2900B Coupe preferably this one if it had an engine

Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale

And then getting a bit more reasonable

Lancia Fulvia HF Lusso

or an Opel Ascona 400

But the good news is, if inspections and documentation is in order, I might just get to cross another British failure off my list soon. Unless a drop dead gorgeous GTV V6 emerges in the next couple of days I might be opening myself up to a whole world of pain!

Look forward to heating more...TVR maybe.......?

Hmmm Mercedes Gullwing, I've always thought to ooze class.

A Ferrari Testarossa

A Lambo Countasch.

I don't know which of the three, would probably depend how they drove, and I've never driven one of them.

So much less reliable than that! I have taken a Tuscan out, but that's now crossed off my list. I fell for the PR and thought it would be an interesting hairy arsed Brit sports car to drive. I found it pretty boring to drive to be honest. It might get replaced by a griffon though.

that Alfa 33 is drop dead, wonder if I could trade in a mangusta for one of those :)

I can afford a mangusta, I'm just pretty sure the ensuing divorce would be the bit that got expensive :)

Sorry got carried away.

The Fulvia HF is not that far out of reach, genuine Ascona 400 might be a bit of a push but the Alfas are just dreaming. A nice Alfa Junior Zagato would also fit nicely alongside the SZ, I have my eye on one if it ever comes up for sale.

I like this one Alfaholics did
