Your dream car

My son's ride to the end-of-school prom was a rather impressive classy barge. Lincoln Continental.

It knocked spots off the white Range Rover Barbie brigade and belched oily smoke over the flash-boy Lambo behind (was running a little rich on the way there).

A workmate had one of those in white in the 80s, I asked him how he afforded to put petrol in it and he just said "I do a wedding hire most weekends, that covers it nicely"

This. We could get the tandem inside. Then we’d go off and explore, but still have some creature comforts

By an amazing coincidence I am discussion with a builder about a van right now - Relay/Boxer/DucatoH2L3, platform bed, captain's seats, kitchenette. Not bothering with loo or shower. Hopefully come July we'll be off exploring. Portugal and Finland have been mentioned!

As you can see, I like subtle Italian cars!

They are both cool. But the De Tomaso Pantera is absolutely stunning.

When my aunt passed, she had one of these, hardly driven, in her garage. Coral and grey.

On balance I prefer the Mangusta

Any one of these.

The black one would appear to be a Tiger, so four wheels and scarily quick.

I agree that's a lovely car too, but perhaps too many styling cues nicked from the Muira where the Pantera is rather more raw.

It was of its time - I see Bora in there, too.

Either of these for me, not for everybody, personally would love either, wouldn't breakdown all the time...

Probably something like this...

Yes, some were four wheeled, although I reckon you could have left the "quick" off, they're tiny compared to a modern car, even beside a Mini would be like being beside an HGV.

Well, if I must choose, this one for just being a posy git (posted in classic cars):

There are apparently, five surviving. I once saw one in 2003 on the sea front in Brighton. Would be soooo much fun just to drive about in it, watching jaws drop
