Picture this. Youve got a Nice house in the middle of nowhere, massive custom built garage with different sorts of cars for different days.

What are they?

It's easy for a thread like this to attract a "Supercar Sweep" type of reply.

I'd like to be a little more realistic.

Fiat Coupe' 20VT Brembo edition as a daily drive.

Alfa 155 V6 DTM spec' track day toy (I can dream).

Alfa 155 Q4 daily drive when the Fiat needs work (I can dream on).

My Rover 213S after spending a few hours and a couple of grand on the old girl (Stealth supercharged B22 conversion and other things).

Pre-72 MGB GT project (because if everything was fine I'd be bored). wink

Mclaren F1 (1992/1992 road car) - This would be my daily driver

BMW E90/92 M3 - Probably the best practical four seater I've driven (roof rack, tow bar etc). I haven't tried an M5 yet, so that may pip it for the practical car (the outgoing V10 one of course! not that horrid turbocharged thing they've just announced).

Elise S2 111S - My perfect sports car, and still the best road car I've driven from a driving point of view. The Elise SC may run it close though...

Mclaren MP4/7 (1992 - Honda V12 n/a) - My favourite ever single seater (I've not driven it mind you!)

Lotus 2/11 SC - trackdays and sunny day blasts. It was hard not to choose a Caterham R500... I'd have fun test driving both to choose though!

Just missing out: Noble M600, 458, MP4-12C (though it'd be a toss up between this and the Turbo S)
