If i had the space, i'd be very tempted to invest in a future classic, the Jaguar XJ6 (X300 series) Supercharger. If i had yet more space, something like a 67 Lincoln Continental lead sled

I've driven mine and it was as exactly as I expected. Calm and relaxed. Nice thing about cars from the 50's/60's/70's is they're simple to fix (as long as there's no rust).

It was the first to be awarded European Car of the Year. And not only for the all-around discs. Crumple zones in the base unit, collapsible steering in the event of a front-ender. Many innovative safety features for a car of the time. Rover used to be a great company.

Had a saloon for thirty years now. Lovely cars with more leg & headroom than the coupe, not to mention the wooden window frames missing from the coupe. It's prettier, though the saloon gives you more car for a little less money.

"P5 or Merc SL.

True five-seaters only in saloon form. Coupe's have individual rear seats. Six seats if you get a P5 saloon with front bench (great for BJ's on the M1) which ceased being an option with the Mk3. With the P5B individual seats front & rear became standard though a rear bench was optional in the saloon, which ours has. You can fit three abreast in the rear of a four-seater but try not to be the one in the middle.

There was a Triumph Stagg being renovated on the programme 'Wheeler Dealers' on Quest last night. Interesting, it said the problems associated with it is due to poor maintenance of the radiator and hoses.

Anyhow, my favs are the iconic Citroen DS and of course the vintage Silver Ghost.

Not a classic as such but I'm on the hunt for a MK1 Toyota MR2 to restore and keep.

Used to pass one on my way home from school every day and I think it was my motivation to do well in life to have cool things like cool cars. Seem to be doing ok so I need one in my life.

"Anyhow, my favs are the iconic Citroen DS and of course the vintage Silver Ghost.

Oh yes, the DS has serious style!"

I too would happily own the original DS, that or another I wanted of the Citroen range was a HY van to convert to a horsebox when I had a farm.

You have to be a certain kind of person to appreciate a classic Citroen

They're a bit too quirky for me. Haha

For me my one and only dream car is a VW Beetle or campervan. Saving up and one day I will have my dream .

I had a 1303 Beetle a while back. Quite a fun little car and very reliable. I'd have another. Not keen on the vans though, simply because they are now vastly overpriced for what they are.

Would have to be an MG midget for fun or a Saab 96 for practicallity. Was offered a saab for free years ago but turned it down as it was a non runner. Kicking myself now. Had a shot of an old Renault 16 a few years back. Strange using a column gear shift but it was really comfy and all the seats folded down to make a double bed. Happy days!!!!

Had loads of Mini's, a Spitfire MKIII and a MK4, a GT6 I wish I'd kept. X19 was sooooo much fun.

Now? I'd love a Sunbeam Rapier.

They are seriously expensive now, usually starting around £55k.

A friend of mine used to have one, used to destroy motorbikes going around a roundabout

Clutch used to only last 6000 miles though
