My wife very kindly bought me one of these as a birth year car for my 40th.

1986 - close call between a SWB Quattro and a 288 GTO. I don't know which.

don't recall having seen a yellow one before (old age - my memory must be going)... looks really nice though.

a lot of Ford top brass live out my parents way in Essex, one of them had an rs1600i in black with white stripes, like the reverse of the colours that ford produced them in. i never found out if he paid for the paint job or not.

Intrigued by that - do you mean like below...or different?

So what you would buy that was built in the year you were born? Provide link to survivor/s

My starter - I give you a 1971 Citroen DS Pallas. For le wafting avec ma dame.

1981 - This but only in this form, and it needs to be fully functioning.

[Mr Happy]

As I've always wanted one, and they were in production in 1981



ETA: Noticed it's already been done, but for me it would have to be exactly like this pic... perfect

I don't think I would want any car that was built in 1940.

....and I doubt if mbh would want anything that was built in 1925, either.

Best wishes all,
Dave.
