Would love to say a GTC4Lusso but really need a 5 seater for a forever car. Current family car the Flying Spur does most things but maybe not exactly one for attacking B roads. An M5 probably the best all rounder.

I'm hoping my Z4M will see me out. I'm 60 and have an F82 M4 which I love.

The Z4M is 18 years old but that will be the one I keep until I can't drive..... I think.

It's looking at some costs as it gets older but I love it.

It'll probably end up on a youtube garage find 30 minute show. biggrin
Same as me then, but sadly I'm 5 years older than you! frown

Panamera S.T. Turbo - having borrowed a boggo hybrid, this would tick so many boxes. Can't see myself coping with anything lower to the ground or more overtly sporty as old age sets in.

I'll have an e39 Alpina B10 V8s touring please in dark green with a caramel interior. Or an e39 M5...

Actually no, I'll have a ratty old Sapphire Cosworth that I can rag the arse off everywhere.... biggrin

DB9 with Fuse 22 missing.

I need the practicality of the boot. Mind you, the 996 Turbo front boot is pretty decent.

Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake would be my weapon of choice as the last car I ever own. Space and Pace with Grace.

Precisely the car I will retain from my current garage I expect.

If we're talking about a fantasy world where your chosen car will just work and you don't really have to worry about reliability then probably a Range Rover of some description, or a Cayenne. Yes I'd like to say a Toyota TS020 or something insane, but as I use my cars to do stuff a track special or sports car would very quickly become annoying.

1994 Aston Martin Vantage (V550).
Fast. Comfortable. Decent boot. Could easily be daily driven & as it’s pretty analogue would last.

Would look fabulous with winter mud up the sides.
Yes!

If I could have absolutely anything, I'd keep my B5. smile

Brilliant continent crusher and just as good at nipping to the woods to walk the dog or to the supermarket for some milk.



Very happy with this indeed.

I'd learn to park it properly though... laugh

Alpina B6 3.5S or 964 RS

Until that happens, this is the one that’s going nowhere. I’ve never had a car that suits me better

Alpina B5 GT Touring in green or purple.

I'd happily have something like a Taycan Cross Tourismo but I wouldn't want to have only an EV right now. In 5 years time the answer may be different though.

Seems like Alpina is comfortably ahead of any other manufacturer.

Grace, pace and practicality.
