Always liked these they look just right imo

They do, it’s amazing how time passes how well these look now. They were seen as over the top and a tad MaxPower but now they look purposeful and delicate

This one sold quick, looked like a good example

I know everything is crazy now, but looking at that depresses me that I sold mine for £6,300

I can’t remember what it was up for now, was it £20k?

Stop showing me nice stuff I can now afford.........................lol

Not sure but looking at the others for sale it seems the going rate is now £15k - £20k

So only 3 times what I sold mine for then...

This week I've mostly been obsessing where all the Peugeot 306's have gone. They still look good today, but I think most have all visited the great scrapyard in the sky.

I'd love to have a GTI-6

The 2009 scrappage scheme murdered loads.

There's a very interesting video by Jay Emm on YouTube in the last couple of weeks about the XK. I think it's a car that's aged very well.

I really fancy an Alfa GTV as a project car.

Watched it several times-it’s not helping me at all !!
I’ve even been thinking about a swallow racing manual conversion!!

Keep coming back to Morgans. A basic 1600 or 2 litre, age seems almost irrelevant, condition much more important. Safe place to put money I reckon!

I've never had the pleasure of driving one, yet find myself drawn to them...

Have you ever tried the auto?

[nattybuk]

Audi R8 mk2

Wasn’t even a thought a week ago. Told the mrs there’s a couple of good used stock around, said it’s louder than the current car and she was sold.

Yes but only briefly,I had a blast in my brother in law’s modified 4.2-it was very quick-and loud,absolutely superb.the auto box is ok,but a manual would be so much better!!

Possibly the only car a manufacturer ever named after his wife - the Iso Lele...
