What I'd like to drive (Pugs Excluded)

[CountryPug]

Thought I'd post this wee list up for some fun. It's basically my three favourite saloon cars, which I like to imagine I'd drive if I wasn't a skint student

Here they are in order of preference:

1. Jaguar XFR


2. Audi RS4


3. Saab 93 Turbo X

Aston Martin DBS V12 Volante - like this one, but either in Piano Black or in British Racing Green:




I'm with you on the new Jaguar XFR. That's a damned hot saloon, that one.

Also, I kinda like the older-style Jaguar XKR (from about 2001 - 2003):



That said, if someone offered me the newer-style XKR for free I'd rip their arm off just to get to the car keys quicker (now THAT'S gratitude )

Ooh, not just limited to cars for once

I wanna drive one of these:


Let's see you put a trolley dent in that, motherf***er

[DiscoPol]

I think this should just about do it



Lets see the pot holes get me now

Strike the above comment it seems i have the ability to copy just about everything Steve writes

Bring on the Polish roads, I have you now Polskich drogach!!

I've driven the XFR and XKR (my bro-in-law is a jag designer) and RS4. Never driven a SAAB Tubbie X, but had several SAAB tubbies, including a Carlsson. Be interesting to see where they go now they're free of GM ownership.

I fancy trying the following, something a bit different to the mass produced norm:

1). Reliant Robin or Regal. I mean, they gotta be a laugh.

2). Grinnal Scorpion. Ooh la la!

3). A G Wiz, just to see if there is any fun whatsoever to be found lurking in there.

Hmm, sumfink with a 350+ V8 at the point end...



Yes, that'd do it *rubs knees*

I want a white Lada Riva with a V12 mounted where the rear seats should be, "bin bag effect" engine cover, 4 exhaust pipes exiting underneath through massive silencers, double-glazed windows, massive soundproofing, and a loud petrol lawnmower under the bonnet

More realistically I'd take an Aston with a GT3 for fun

1). Reliant Robin or Regal. I mean, they gotta be a laugh.

Only if your idea of a laugh involves the car feeling like it's going to roll on its roof no matter how slowly you take the corner

and a loud petrol lawnmower under the bonnet

Just leave the original 1.6 in there, the sound is the same

No Peugeot allowed? Then a Citroen of course!

A C6 with that nice V6 HDi but I insist on a manual transmission. And I want it in red -- which they discontinued.

[turbolag]

It's gotta be the 3.0 HDi though - the 2.7's a bit underwhelming.

Been web browsing with this thread in mind, and I've decided that for sheer balls out insanity, the Light Car Company Rocket is the one to choose.

had one of these and you would be surprised how quick they are.

A C6 Automatic in Black with Cream leather, dont know wheather diesel or petrol because an LPG kit would be good on the petrol, and a CX Series 2 in the Prestige LWB trim. A rover SD1 vitesse in red. And An Alfa 159
