I've wanted one of these since I was 10. They always seem to be about £100k more then I can afford...
Somewhere at my parents house is a letter from Victor Gauntlett's PA telling me that I'm a bit too young to be shown round the Newport Pagnell works and to ask again in a couple of years. Included with the letter is a full press pack and set of brochures- it's something I'll never get rid of.
The first cars I got into as a kid were vintage sports cars - Blower Bentleys, Bugatti Type 35s and so on. Then I discovered the joy of V8s and it was Cobras, GT40s and the old shape (DBS-style) Aston Martin Vantage.
Going back further, though, I used to have a poster of this exact shot on my bedroom wall, and I blame it for repeated TVR purchases since:

I was born in 1988 and was always behind the times, from the first time I saw one and asked my mum what it was, this car always was and is my favourite of all time. One of my first memories is being with my mum in her old 3.0 Mk.1 Capri and asking what this car was...
It was the E-Type Jaguar.
