[/dribble]I just hope it has been cared for since I parted with it.

There have been a few, but heres two that I would buy back again.
1973 Daimler Sovereign
1997 Alpina B10 V8
The first owner of VEX 6L was my grandfathers best friend. He owned it from new until the mid 80s. Has it still got the after-market Alpinair air conditioning that would make a penguin shiver?1973 Daimler Sovereign

I once owned an absolutely immaculate 1988 BMW E34 535i Sport. Had been dry stored, owned by the same owner since new, full service history and low miles. Beautiful car.
I was young, didn't really appreciate what I had and sold it for peanuts to find it on Ebay a few months down the line for a few grand more than I sold it for.
The only car I ever look back on and genuinely regret selling and not even because of the money, it really was a lovely motor.
Found it via the FreeAds yellow paper, the guy was old school didn't like all this internet advertising stuff so he advertised it there and it was up for sale for 4 weeks with me being the first to look at it, as yoy can see I snapped his arm off.

Nowhere near as impressive as most of the above but my 1999 Saab 9-5 Aero.
It was only £600 and superb. There does not exist another car for £600 that was as good as that!
That is just it really, does not have to be rare or flash. I had a Vauxhall Omega that I paid £250 for, it was nice but the fact it was so cheap put a smile on my face every time I used it.It was only £600 and superb. There does not exist another car for £600 that was as good as that!
