An Austin Allegro did it for me when I was a lad, but that was a different world, & i've always been a sad git ;D ;D ;D ;)

Poor reliabilty and they went bust.

I had mine for 4 years Skruntie & it never went wrong once! I've had the miggy for just under 10 months & it has been a constant headache! Mind you, i'm older now but not much wiser and that's why I fell in love with the miggy ;) :y

Your a picky lot - I'd settle for something that just ran for a year without breaking down...

Got to have been your fist car, you wouldn't own up to having an Allegro other wise :y

totally agree mate!!the Aston looks gorgeous and the cobra is a classic. For me , the rear of the TVR looks crap, the Rolls is simply too big and overblown, the Masserati is good looking but not in the Aston's league and the ferrari-well, I dont know many people who would choose a prancing horse over an Aston given the choice.....as for the allegro I know of people who never had any problems with them whatsoever and then there was my ex's who's gearbox fell out when she stopped at the lights ;D

Lottery win
A Range Rover (not sport)
New supercharged Jag possibly
Not overly bothered by sports cars
<----Full respray on that
But older cars, Lotus versions of two of my previous cars :y :y
Would like a Monza, Series 2 or 3 LR as a restoration, Avenger Estate restoration

Quentin Wilson when asked ''what is the best car you've ever driven'', replied that one of then was a proper 427 Cobra. He was pootling down a main street somewhere & wanted to overtake the car infront. He gave it a boot full ...... then he was facing where he'd just come from! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Apparently he has crashed more than that for Top gear.

WWith a lottery win wouldnt you be batter buying a new tin van than repainting an old one. ::)

The car!
I'd be looking at a top end tin tent

If I won I dunno whether to have a tow bar fitted to my Vetron.
I think my garage would be bigger than the house though.

Think I'm in agreement with all those except for the Rolls - far too ostentatious for my liking, wouldn't have one even if I had Bill Gates' fortune. ::)

I still have a vision in my mind from the first trip to Le mans in the Westfield. Me and 2 mates cruising in convoy up a rather great hill (3 lane single carriageway) on the N138.
An Esprit V8, 911 and, IIRC and Ferrari 456 who we'd been playing with went past us, absolutely flat out.
Saw a 427 Cobra looming in the rear view mirror and he breezed up round the outside of the lot of us without even trying (I'd be surprised if he hit 4,000 RPM). :o ;D
