1970 Hemi ‘Cuda (Plymouth Barracuda).

Always hated the shape of Mustangs but the Hemi ‘Cuda and the 1969 Camaro SS are the 2 most beautiful cars ever made in my opinion.

Id like either a Mustang or Impala.

You can pick up Mustangs fairly cheap because there are a lot of them about as they were mass produced. Unfortunately the bulk of them are in poor condition so would need a lot of work.

Always been car obsessed from a very young age and lost count of what I’ve bought and sold over the years so it’s a tough one really

Never been one for exotics or Americans so would have to be a classic Ford for me or something retro; something you used to see everyday years ago but don’t see now

Would like to own an Aston Martin Vantage either 4.3 or 4.7. Noise and looks are just amazing. The V12 is overpowered and does not handle as well imo. Also I don't like the additional bonnet grills.

i have been lucky enough do drive many classics from mundain to ultra rare, and all of them dissapointed in some way, old cars are old cars, the worst was a db5 astin, i so wanted to love it, but id was aweful, no i just look at classics fondly and admire the looks etc, but dont want to own or drive any, shame, but modern cars spoil you. i know they have carecture etc, but thats just another word for dont work properly or are crap to drive. Same for classic bikes, would love a z1000 like i had in my teans, but in reality it was a bit crap to ride, maybe thats part of the fun and im missing out, dont know.

Well I own a 1972 Mini Clubman with a 1380cc engine in. Built it all myself, restored the car in 2016, did the current engine and box last year.

I still have my first car!

1994 Mini Sprite. It’s rotten and not been on the road since Xmas 2012 but I’ll restore it one day.

My current daily is unusual - Subaru Legacy 3.0R Spec B. Very practical and a pleasure to own, drive and work on.

Car I regret selling the most was my S14a Nissan 200SX

My “realistic” dream car was always an R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R in Midnight Purple on BBS LM wheels in gold. However they are £40+k now.

I fancy the current (S550) Mustang 5.0 V8 too.

"Were the 180sx a turbo or non turbo? I know the later Sylvia's had sr20's but I'm not sure on the 180's "

Right here we go;

Yes, the 180SX came with the SR20 in N/A and turbo form. No variable valve timing.

The 180SX initially came with the CA18DET as found in UK S13 200SXs.

All the later Silvias/200SX (S14, 14a, S15) had the SR20. You could get a non turbo one in Japan and the USA ones had a crappy KA series engine.

I had a UK S13 when I was 21 and the car I wish I still had now was my second 200SX, a 1999 S14a. Not messed with, one owner from new.

I was badgered into selling it by my ex Mrs whilst I was doing lots of exams for work. Still pissed off about that now, 8 years later.

I would love another one but the survivors fetch strong money now. Fabulous cars.
