Another one for the estate. I could spend longer looking at a coupe, but id much rather watch an estate shoot off down the road, preferably accompanied by a sound track of 8 or more cylinders.

YES! Estates - best looking version of any car model -

W123/4 Mercs
E30/36/46/90/34/60 BMW
Any Audi, particularly the fast ones...
Any Volvo
Any VW

etc

Not sure EVER why you'd choose a coupe at any cost over an estate, or a saloon - when estates look (miles) better and are far more practical...

Fast estates are very cool (BMW please make an M3 Touring!) .

I love roadsters too.

What's that white Audi? Is it an RS3 Avant? Never instantly wanted an Audi (R8 aside) until I saw that just now lick
its an RS3 "sportback" but as their only 10cm shorter than the RS2 and the front is shorter than the RS2 having a transverse engine its at worst a mini avant smile
Ah thanks - shows how in fashion I am with Audis. Very much want I must admit!

You all seem to like estate cars - they're so handsome.

Estate cars for boring practical stuff, sports cars for driving.

I love the coupe style as someone else has already posted. That said I am a big convertible fan.... Tough decision tongue out

Saloons...proper saloons, not big hatchbacks.

Our Saab 9000 'VXR worrier' Is a good example, Looks plain enough until it shoots off down the road faster than something with the same tonnage as a container ship really shouldn't be able to. smile

Ah, maybe another one for the RS4 register I'm keeping!
No info shows for the plate now though, do you know what happened to it?

What makes you think it was 13? None of them are numbered

My gut reaction is estate cars (and 2 door shooting breaks). I don't know why really though. Fast estates in particular are great. Since I've owned one (sadly not a fast one!) I've developed a strange perversion where I love automatic gearboxes too :-/
