Imagine a museum in 2030, for cars 1990 onwards. Not for the obvious candidates, Astons and the like, but regular cars we could pick up in 2012 for way less than £10k. What would you stick away for prosperity? Landmark cars for either performance, looks or design, but relatively mundane stuff that cost pennies now and are somewhat treated as sheds?

1) MK1 MX5
2) Audi TT 225. Early car, MUST be silver.
3) Fiat Coupe 20V turbo. MUST be sprint blue!


I) MK1 MX5

Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo - Pininfarina design, goes like stink

Audi A2 - first mass production aluminium car, designer went on to design the Lamborghini Gallardo

Renault Avantime - a failure but a good drive, ahead of it's time, strange to think that the next model Scenic went onto look exactly like it

I will let the 156 GTA in for the front seats design alone!

And I am parked up next to a black Fiat Barchetta bizzarely, yep nice design. They would have been better though with Punto GT turbo running gear in from the factory...

I'd vote for the 156 too,

you'd definitely need a X300 Jaguar in there.
