I have owned or had a drive of most models produced by Triumph. One that I have seen in the flesh but will never afford to own is the Italia Coupe weeping

When I was a kid I was obsessed with the Panther 6



8 litre twin turbo and 6 wheels! Only 2 were ever made, and I'm not sure if there was ever one sold?

Only one apparently, the other (and possibly a third) were built from left-overs.

They ever had this at Goodwood?
Must be on his "hit list" if not surely?

The prototype centre steer Series 1 Land Rover< does it still exist somewhere or was it cut up for scrap.
It still exists.

Check out the Top Gear episode which featured Will Smith & that gorgeous Aussie actress whose name I can't remember.

Hammond was filmed sitting in it (The Land Rover. Not the Aussie actress).

Also there was a feature on the centre steer Land Rover in Land Rover Monthly around 12/15 months ago. I have the issue somewhere I think.

Pantera, no idea why, never even seen one in real life but just love it.





Just awesome imho.


Anyone here got one?

My friend's dad has one.

I can't fit in the passenger side, let alone behind the wheel :-(


For me... I think I'd have to go with a Mercedes Grosser.

Fancy myself as a warlord/dictator.

If money really was no object then it would be this for me: The HSV Holden Racing Team Monaro HRT427. Fitted with a 7 litre normally aspirated 535 bhp LS6, bespoke aluminium suspension, magnesium wheels, and race interior. Only 2 were made, one is in private ownership and the other with Holden, so it couldn't be much rarer.

Lotus M250 - debuted at Frankfurt, travelled the dealerships as a prototype but never made production.

Saw it in the flesh once in Newcastle.
