Which Shite would you drive if you were rich?

[Junkman]

I just couldn't bring myself towards leaving Shiteland.

For leisurely continental touring, this, especially as I know where there is a un-restored example in need of fresh valves...

 

For transporting the heard:

All of the above. I'd need a multistorey car park for all the shite I'd amass.

[Albert Ross]

Fuck me, where do I start.....?

There are literally HUNDREDS of heaps of shit I would own, given time, space, and money. FSO pick up to start... brush painted matt black of course.

Then on...

Erm...

[chaseracer]

 

On black steelies...

[Cavcraft]

I'd have a train and I drive it towards a horse.

 

Other than that a Lotus Carlton.

[RedSparrow]

Yep, got to be a Bristol of some description.

 

Fucking RUBBARSH.

That is exactly the one I would have. I love them. Also one of these:

 

[DaveAspley]

As already said, hundreds of possibilities!

 

top billing would be given to a '70 Dodge Challenger, in Vanishing Point spec

 

 

and the Roller from Cannonball Run complete with the loud v8 soundtrack, 6ft cb antenna, Hella spots.

 

 

in fact I could do this all night. Mk1 tranny for work, a mint 1600 mk5 cortina for shopping, a hot rod, a Fiat Strada Abarth, one of those ex-Fiat 132's still being built in Ethiopia or somewhere..... oooh there is soo many!

[ashmicro]

I would buy about 10 of these, and keep them in my house.

 

 

and I would break my "no green cars rule" for one of these:

 

 

oh, and a minty one of these

 

[mk1_4dr]

If I was to win the Lotto tomorrow, I'd be getting on a train and going and buying this...

 

Buick

 

 

I'd take a friend with me, and collect this on the way home

 

 

I'd use them as run arounds while I wait for these to be delivered from the states.

 

Polara Wagon

 

 

Chrysler Newport

 

 

And I'd probably invest in an E34 540i Touring for turnkey hasslefree dailying, preferably a manual, but I could rock an auto.

Can i be friend?

[Jack_Harpers_Teeth]

[hairnet]

 

visa diesel

 

renault 4

 

lots of panhards

 

imp

 

there is a BIGGGGGG list also

[DaveAspley]

That Polara wagon is quite possibly the sexiest tat hauler I've ever seen.

[mk1_4dr]

Can i be friend?

 

Of course you can. I'd be down in Kent to collect the Buick, so I'd be in the vague vacinity.

 

That Polara wagon is quite possibly the sexiest tat hauler I've ever seen.

 

Isn't it though! I know they are classed as the ugly years, but I think that thing is exquisite. But then Iam odd.

May I remind you that I opened this thread with a 1961 Imperial? So odd you aren't.

[Justin Case]

I think that something a bit more 'old money' would project the right image for the wealthy shiter

 

 

Or perhaps:

 

[Junkman]

Or maybe something a bit more sober and subdued?

 

[Baz]

Ooooh.....Just off the top of my head:

 

 

For starters anyway....Just until I had some PROPER storage facilities....Then the collection could start in earnest!

[ashmicro]

Interesting that Rolls appeared. My mate was left quite a lot of money (and a car dealership) when his father suddenly died in 1994. His Mum had run off years before, so my mate copped for the lot. He bought a HORRIBLE Rolls Shad, painted with rattlecans in dark metallic red. It was bloody ancient too, didn't even have the 6750 engine (I think it was a 6.2). We went to the North West 200 and 4 of us slept in the car. It was murderous on fuel, shockingly unreliable and looked like shit. I loved it! He scrapped it when he got pulled over by the police for a construction and use check. He then had a collection of old shit, 2 and three at a time: RWD Kadetts, Escorts (mark 1 and 2) Capris, Cortinas, Chevettes and a Marlboro liveried Sunbeam ti which was epic. Back in those days, these were just shit old cars that most people scoffed at.

[Spiny Norman]

I do like the Star Sapphire, but I might plump for something a tad more modern.

 

[aldo135]

I'm sure we all spend too much time thinking about this! I've told the Mrs if we win the lottery the first thing i am going to do is buy my ebay watch list! Think my first purchase would need to be a recovery truck!

 

I put my top 10 "dream barn" on petrolblog, http://petrolblog.com/2012/01/05/alans-real-world-dream-barn/

 

Interesting to see all the different cars we choose, so much better than the usual banal shite that non-car fans pick

Volvo 360 GLT, or...

 

 

A Nissan Cedric. Yum.

The crud I already own, plus:

 

 

Plus lots of other Rovers....

[DSdriver]

As we're talking about shite which rules out a Ferrari 250GT it would have to be one of these which is the shite equivalent.
