Must admit to secretly loving Chrysler Crossfires as well (definitely a Coupe thing going on :D )

Afraid it's not my idea of motoring but each to their own :) was that a kit car?
Sorry Kryton, not a kit car, built by Dick Buckland, he built 12 altogether, he used to race "F type" Morgans and wanted a modern day copy to hill climb and sprint but also road legal.
He started the project in the mid 1960's and after 12 cars plus his racer ill health forced him to stop.This is No9 car and has raced most of the major circuits and hill climbs in the UK plus 3 trips to Le Man,
I agree not to everyone's taste but if you drove it i promise, you would be smiling for day's, but im biased.

Did you wear one of those leather flying helmets when you drove that car, John? :wink:
 
When I was younger I used to really like the Renault 5 Turbo. Fell in love with them when my friend did a custom respray on his - in Toyata Rav 4 blue (metallic).

It was riding on 17s (for a Renault 5 that was big), and dropped 90mm on coilovers at the front, and 110mm on the rear torsion beams

Didnt handle too well as it was far too low. But it looked sweeeet :thumbsup:

Renaultsport Clio V6

That's identical (but probably not as clean) as Aliv6's Clio on here. I've got bad history with Renaults but would have a V6 Clio without hesitation...

I've still got a soft spot for Crapi's too: was the first car I travelled in (back from the hospital), my dad had a succession of them during my childhood, and the first crash I was involved in (as a passenger) was in a mate's 2.8i. They're not the best cars but definitely a guilty pleasure for me.

john56: that is superb. But then I love the idea of the new 3-wheel Morgan too.
 
And to think an M Coupe was on my list before I bought my Z4... I was scared off by the potential running costs if something went wrong. That plus I guess 321bhp, RWD and no TC/DSC isn't an ideal first RWD car :oops:
