Your most impressive and disappointing cars of 2010
Discussion
Chatting to a friend of mine who happens to be a PHer in the pub a little while ago, we got on to the subject of the cars that we had either driven or passengered in this year that had impressed us and which ones had left us feeling rather disappointed (sad I know).
Anyway your candidates don't have to be supercar's or even truly woeful cars, just the ones that have surprised you; whether that is good or bad...
Mine are;
Most impressive:
1992 Jaguar XJS 4.0
My older brother purchased an absolutely beautiful example of these earlier this year and what a lovely machine! I have briefly driven it a few times, and have also been 'chauffeured'
around in it on several occasions - what a wonderful way to travel! Its really comfy, well refined, fairly quick - nearly as quick as my VX down a sliproad joining the motorway and effortlessly cool!
Most disappointing:
Nissan 350Z
A colleague/friend of mine (also a PHer) has recently bought a 2004 example of these. It is a car that I have always liked as it looks good, has had decent reviews, has a decent sized engine which in turn kicks out decent performance figures so its my kind of car. So when he offered to take me for a spin in it I jumped at the opportunity. But I just felt slightly disappointed as it didn't seem as quick as I had imagined nor sound as good either. Don't get me wrong it is still a lovely car but just not quite as I assumed, it is not the worst car iv been in this year by a long way just disappointing...
Anyway that's enough of my babble, over to you....
