"Austin maxi " I used to have a 1750, reasonably attractive styling, practical, economical, superb handling, ride comfort equal to a 1960's Rolls Royce Silver Shadow (speaking from experience). Probably the most under rated British car ever. | |||

"Don't you find these days that all cars look the same. All the same basic shape. I assume it must have something to do with research and aerodynamics and the manufacturers have all agreed that this basic shape works. When I was a kid there seemed to be more choice of cars." Modern cars have to meet a lot of legislative criteria. One requirement is that in the event of collision with a pedestrian, the frontal area should deflect them sideways, not toss them into the air. | |||

"Thankfully nobody has said a Tesla. If money was no object and it didn't harm the environment, I'd pick my old Land Rover Defender. Built like a tank and did it all. Loved driving that thing. " Over its entire life your old landy will have less impact than most. | |||

"There's so many cool cars from across the years that I'd want to collect, money no object. But, as a daily driver, for practicality and fun factor, I'd go for a Mercedes AMG E63 estate. Not the new E53 hybrid version, but the previous model E63. 603hp. 0-60in 3.3secs, massive boot, loads of room and comfortable as fook. " I have a 2019 4.0 S63L V8 and it is a cloud on wheels. I prefer the older 5.5 E63 not the new E53 (fake AMG) for those who want to think they drive an AMG when it’s not with its 3.0 engine | |||

"money no object Audi Q7 better than range rover but for fun a huge american style camper with side pods and fully loaded , towing a run around for when parked up " I had a 36' RV at one time, bloody hard finding places to park and very difficult going down UK's tiny roads.... But if you are parked up in the perfect place it is wonderful.... | |||

Me too, I love Minis, I have an R56 Cooper as a hobby car and just love owning and driving it far more so than my main newer motor that my partner drives, I just prefer to be a passenger in that one, chatting away and looking at the passing scenery! lol 😄 | |||

"Everyday car would be a Rover P5B Coupe. Weekends would be a Lambo 400GT or something of that ilk." I've had a couple of P5 Rovers. Lovely cars and the look of amazement from drivers of moderns as you hammer past them on the motorway is sweet. | |||

"Currently drive a leased Hyundai Ioniq 5 which is a pretty cool EV as EVs go, I love the tank like look of it but it weighs two tonnes and has no driving excitement. I still enjoy twisty B roads where the instant electric torque shines but not nearly as much fun as I used to have in my old tiny one litre shitboxes. Still though, i do lots of 400+ miles drives and its a sublime motorway cruiser due to the weight If I was to buy my own car again Id go for a medium si_ed van and convert it into a campervan for me and my dog and travel the uk sucking cock "Have you seen the N versions of the Ioniq 5 and 6. Apparently 650 horse power. They sound rather amazing. | |||
