Snowy Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I've been browsing ebay, half heartedly looking for a car (the time isn't right yet, but nothing to stop me window shopping in the meantime ) and I've fallen in love! You know when you see a car and think "that is sooo me"? Well this is mine. T reg, Mazda MX5 in Racing Bronze with cream leather upholstery Totally OTT and impractical, but soooo pretty It's a bargain at £4000. I'd buy it tomorrow if money were no object! Go on, which one would you buy if you could? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluekarin Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Mercedes We have a Mazda and I'd go for a Mazda any day for a run around car, but for luxury, it would be the Merc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the flappy ears in the back - errrrr .... no back seat so could be a problem (or a bonus ) The convertable is a full 4 seater.

Chucky1 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Maybe not many's idea of a dream machine (apart from mine )but wouldn't be without it. It pulls anything. Kept us going through the floods in November, the icy roads in January and February, and has never got stuck in the fields.

majorbloodnock Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 For practical purposes, my dream car is currently anything that is reliable is comfortable doesn't wallow has enough power to allow quick enough overtaking to be safe has aircon and a CD player I've had enough of the attitude on the roads in the South East, so don't much enjoy driving any more, so don't see why I should spend lots on a car I'm not going to really enjoy. However, were I to ever to move somewhere where drivers were generally polite, that'd all change. In that case, my "money no object" fantasy car would be an AC Cobra 427 - the ultimate in four-wheel motorbikes.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I've had my dream car - my Triumph Spitfire convertible. I got fed up of my bum dragging on the floor & putting my neck out, getting in & out of it. These days I'd like a little Audi convertible. I love the fiat 500's in cream . But I'll be happy with a fiat 4x4 panda eventually in our big move to Wales plan. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhapsody Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I've always wanted one of these cos you could drive around pretending to be a French Assassin.. But I would really like one of these However my days of nursing classic cars are over, and with the way the little old ladies drive in my part of Surrey (newsflash love- there are other people on the road) I wont drive without airbags anymore. I did recently get a great deal on one of these- With the old 3.2 V6 + Quattro and I expected to hate it but its fantastic, and even petrolhead OH has admitted I did well- praise indeed!
