http://cars.msn.co.uk/carnews/top10dreamcars/

I have no quarms with it! but wow!

onemini · May 2nd, 2003, 05:13 PM

Just 1 problem.... the MINI COOPER S pictured is a COOPER

strawbs · May 2nd, 2003, 05:18 PM

Who the hell made that list up??????? not a car fan obviously.
Where's the Pagani Zonda? Ferrari F40? Merc SL Gullwing?
Porsche carrera GT? Maclaren F1?

minky · May 2nd, 2003, 05:22 PM

Yup! silly billies!

But can you imagine this fact, Vanquish, Z5, then the MINI beating super cars like Ferrari Enzo, Lambo etc tec like wow! Very startling!

Vi've la MINI

Anyone who puts a Chrysler Grand Voyager in their top 10 dream cars is clinically insane. Fact.

strawbs · May 2nd, 2003, 05:32 PM

What are the next 10 then?

Kia pride
FSO Polenez
Renault Fuego
Dihatsu sirion
Honda prelude
Suzuki Alto
Daewoo Kalos
Proton satria
perodua kelisa

minky · May 2nd, 2003, 05:32 PM

Yeha thats a point! bit strange indeed!
But can't argue for the top 1 though! the Vanquish is the BiZZZzz

strawbs · May 2nd, 2003, 05:41 PM

Had a Vanquish play with me on the M25.
he overtook me and then pulled over so i bombed past him at about 110mph and he pulled out flashed me and took off like a rocket. i felt a right nob!!

Mini drivers.....know your limits!!

minky · May 2nd, 2003, 05:49 PM

Strabs.... what were you thinking

strawbs · May 2nd, 2003, 05:55 PM

I know!! wot a spanner.
won't be doing that again in a hurry.
i pulled into the slow lane and drove at 65mpn all the way after that with my exhaust between my legs

minky · May 2nd, 2003, 05:58 PM

Hey at least you had the dignity to admit defeat! I bet that Vanquish driver had loads of Ego

Martin L · May 2nd, 2003, 06:31 PM

What a load of tosh

How on earth can the cheapo built Z8 be up there

The SL55 is a far better car

The Pagini Zonda has definately got to be the ultimate dream car and doesn't even get a mention

As regards to passing supercars on motorways, I've always noticed that they all tootle along at 70mph where I live. The amount of Ferraris and AMs I've passed is amazing.
I'm guessings it's because the stretch of M40 between megabucksville and London is full of coppers

May 2nd, 2003, 06:34 PM

Why on earth is a mini cooper #3??? I thought this was dream cars? The mini is not a dream car, if you want one, you can easily buy one.

minky · May 2nd, 2003, 06:35 PM

oohh arrr SL55AMG, now you are talking!

strawbs · May 2nd, 2003, 06:39 PM

yep. vovlo T5 type things everywhere.
i kinda think that a supercar is only gonna pick up the gauntlet if it's with a car of similar ability.

As for the Z8,they're stopping production of that dog anyway.For 80k there are far better cars on offer.
Sl55
porsche 911 C4S

etc etc

Humourl3ss · May 2nd, 2003, 06:47 PM

What, no vintage cars? If I was given a choice of any 10 cars for my garage mahal, you can be sure a Bugatti T57 Atlantic would be in there somewhere.

And some of the picks on that list are... umm.... controversial. Maybach? No thanks; it looks like a limo built by Hyundai. Enzo? I'll take a used McLaren F1 or the upcoming Porsche Carrera GT over that histrionic origami exercise.

strawbs · May 2nd, 2003, 06:55 PM

I think that the Enzo's bum is better than it's face.
If it's vintage cars that we dream of mine would have to be a ferrari 250GT California. (ferris buellers day off)

Richard Crofts · May 2nd, 2003, 08:06 PM

Strawbs my dear man, you have exceptional taste. That is my favourite Ferrari.

AM Vanquish
AM DB5
Merc SL55
Jag E type
Jag XK120
Zonda
Shelby GT500
Mini Cooper S
Ferrari 250GT California
Original Porshe 911 (Exceptional drivers car!)

Richard Crofts · May 2nd, 2003, 08:09 PM

Cool, I'll have to get that - must have seen it about a million times! I can pretty much recite it word for word when it's on TV!

'When Cameron was in Egypts land..........'

Back on topic - Ferrari 250GTO is probably the best looking, F40 would be the dream car for me. And the Enzo now of course!
