How achingly and utterly beautiful this early XK120 is.


Decent push from the 3.4 litre. Comes with a glorious soundbyte. Early cars have 165 brake. Later C-type heads boast 215.


A little PS fun with this one to create a 50s stylee.


XKs don't come cheap but as for 65K one could have a solid driver. I expect this one to be a tad more expensive wink


XK150 seems to be the drivers choice. It looks the dogs ... but hardly as gorgeous as the 120.


From 190 tot 265 horse - this is a later car with max power - this cat should fly like an eagle.

Next: oddballs.

Forgot a few Brits:

How about this piece of work?


Big purring six.


Mk2s are getting rare on our roads.


A thing of beauty.


A solid E-type can be found for ± 40K euros where a rock hard gem can be thrice that price!

More.

French goddess carrying Bello.


Merc without an attitude.


Easy does it. Believe it or not this 1955 Mercedes-Benz 180 D did the Mille Miglia 2014.


They are getting rare, they are getting expensive. V8 Stag.


Gazelle is a well known Dutch bicycle brand.


Stag's not in my street, but the colour appeals.

Next: Big Healey, big Alfa.

Big Healeys are quite popular over here:

Is it a truck? No it's a Big Healey!


Hard to beat stance.


Healey nosejob.


Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint jewel.


Ow my goodness what a gorgeous car.


115 brake of 2 litre loveliness.


Touring and Zagato designed these cars and I guess this is a Touring version.


While the rally cars were gone the Alfa got all the attention.


This 1975 cc four has nothing to do with the famed 105-series engines.

Next: more Italian.

Italian yum at a 2014 meeting:

Gorgeous Fiat Dino Spider 2.4.


Falling in love with this early 60s Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider.


Maserati Biturbo was way ahead of its time.


Alfa Romeo 1900 SS beauty.


Alfa Romeo Bertone Berlina.

E46 love here.


Fiat 124 Sport Spider / Pinninfarina Spider: made until 1985!


Never underestimate the amount of fun you can have in an MGB GT.


Old Skool BMW Cabrio!
