V8 vantage volante. Note the spolier, side skirts.
Back in the 90s these things were going for £20k, wish I'd bought one!

Back in 07 you could get a good 930 for £20k or under not anymore?

To quote the first two lines from David & David's 1986 hit 'Welcome to the Boomtown'*:

"Ms. Cristina drives a 944,
Satisfaction oozes from her pores"







  • I'm ignoring any possibilty that the song might be in any way satirical, as I love the 80s and really want a 944 Turbo right now! wink

I took great pride in that being on my bedroom wall.

For me it has to be a black Saab 900 T16S, 3 spokes and Depeche Mode on the Blaupunkt!

[quote=Censorious]These are 70's I know but as you say, they were popular all through the 80's too.




I think Blondes in bikinis are still popular.

At the risk of repeating myself: the Cup1s look nice on a Baltic Blue car.
