Read my mind......

Must have Black bonnet and power steering. I'm too old for non assisted steering!!

An Option 97 (aka bathurst) Cobra would be just as nice.

TVR Cerbera Red Rose edition..........bad to the bone- the ultimate widowmaker 460hp v8, no traction control, just lots of fun and basically faster than anything that pulls up alongside you at the lights!

+1 for an Option 97 Cobra. I would be the happiest man alive if I had one of these in my driveway.

I would have to go a GT40, either the original or a Ford GT.

Valued Contributor: For members whose non technical contributions are worthy of recognition. - Issue reason: Always willing to help out fellow AFF members... Technical Contributor: For members who share their technical expertise. - Issue reason: Daniels knowledge of modular engines and superchargers is extremely valuable to the AFF community. I have learnt quite a bit just reading his build threads. His contributions are often utilised by other members.

I agree with damo76, the countach is Lamborghini at it's finest.
Although, my dream car would be a BF mk2 Fairmont Ghia or a TVR Tuscan.
So if someone just doesn't want their Fairmont or Tuscan, I'll have em !

Mine would have to be something really odd or obscure like a Leyland Force 7, Gilburn Invader or an MG Xpower SV.....
But I wouldn't say no to a Sierra Sapphire Cosworth In 2WD version for added RWD lunacy!
