for you sunbeam boys,
my mate has some special edition 'avon' one, that was stripped right down in about 87, he has just reassembled it and it has absolutley no rust anywhere on it, all its original paint and panels (that makes it a rarity in itself, the original velour trim (different to normal ones apparently) is mintier than mint.
he was contemplating selling it the other day as he cannot bring himself to drive it as its so clean and he reckons he will ruin it in 6 months, it has some kind of trick engine, can't remember who built it, but think it was a bloke called skip brown(somthing like that)
the only thing that is missing is the roof lining (he thinks it got thrown out in a house move)

he might sell it he might not but i will pass on his number if anybody wants to chance there arm!
It is like a new car albeit a very loud one

Well for pure rarity I would want a dusenberg from the early 1900's as they are worth a fortune around Ł1.5 million each! but as for every day Rs200 would be nice!

An E type Jaguar convertable in British Racing Green. Always loved these cars. They are still stunning now, back when they were released they must have stopped people in their tracks.

That F430 is the most gorgeous car I've ever seen, a definite future classic

I couldn't cut it down to just one, I'd love an old school Jag....



Definitely the original mustang fastback...



ooh ooh and can I have a classic F1 car??
