One of my favourite films is a musical

Can you guess it?

Another is a Western.

My Fair Lady?

I used to drive a Fairlady (named after the musical, so it's said) .. yeesh that was an embarrassing name for a car.

Went and saw The Phantom of the Opera in London with the ex and really couldn't understand what all the fuss was about.. she was apoplectic that I thought it was all a bit silly (even though she'd spent several months calling my hobby of cars worse things, ah, double standards).

Anyway.. I digress and my bitterness is showing.

A ZX??

Yep - my first was an import (hence the Fairlady monkier - it still had the sticker on the back, too).. my current one is a UK car though, so I get to avoid the Fairlady name

Had a couple of 280's, the last one i had was a total rot box

I'd absolutely kill for a nicely restored 240 or 260 with a big V8 in the front .. but as you say, most of them are utterly rotten now and the ones that aren't cost a fortune

This would be nice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhFc2oPEzHk

I just said to myself "that squirm well with that in" then he snaked it up the road

[aaronjb]

Oh yes - definitely a triumph of torque over traction 

I keep saying my next car will be a V8 of some description.. I just can't decide what, but whatever it is has to have that noise

Hmmm, I'll bite. [sings]The hills are alive with the sound of music [/sings]

As for the other The Alamo / She wore a yellow ribbon / Big Country

Am I close?

As for the original subject, I enjoy planet rock for the variety of music. No set timeframe and there is rarely a duff tune on. They do seem to of toned down the jingles though (some were classic).

All are totally wrong.

Musical - a clue - Dodge Monaco
Western - a clue - the best one there is

That is tantamount to admitting your gay.

Of course - the best musical ever!

The car was quite a big hint..

Doh Hmm not sure on either actually then. I can think of a long list of the westerns but none spring to mind.
