what counts as a classic, or just interesting?

Lets be honest one man's classic is another man's Morris Ital. The problem with the term classic car, is for some people, it has to be a design classic, were as for others a classic is simply an old car.

At least it falls into the interesting category, personally I like Ginettas (especially cheap ones like that model!) but I also like mini Marcoses, Gems, Midas cars, Clans, Gilberns, Bonds, Scimitars and various other assorted plastic toys so I am possibly biased.

Looks like he got into a young lady's pants all the same - they're lying by the side of the road.

And he's not alone - as a former Clan Crusader owner I have to show some solidarity. A car which, incidentally , made the equivalent MGs and Triumphs feel like the antiques they were....

I have a "thing" for the Toyota Sera at the moment.

It's just so quirky and unusual.

I'd definitely consider getting one if I had the cash.

at the moment they are still relatively cheap ranging from £600-£4k but most seem to be around the £1500-£3000 mark.

surely the prices will go up eventually??

just me?

Never heard of a toyota sera before, its certainly a bit different

Ps that model in the 1st picture, is she a bit BOBFOC?

AFAIK the Sera was personal import only. So probably an acquired taste, like the model.
