Cool, you surely have a massive collection of cars. Are you planning to restore the red one? :driving:

Yes, the MK1 Golf has been off the road for a good 10 years or so. I’ve done a lot of the welding but there’s still more to be done. One day it will be done :D
 
My other toy is a 2011 Holden GTS. 6.2L of Chevrolets finest. One of 15 in UK and the only grey one. Going in for a custom stainless exhaust in a weeks time.

My Other car is an MG SVR it is made of Carbon Fibre and has a 5-litre mustang engine in there.

This was the launch car at the NEC and other motor shows in 2004 but not registered until 2009 and has 7000 miles from new. I am lending it to Jeremy Clarksons Media company next week which seemed a really good idea at the time but as it is getting closer I am becoming more nervous of....

Lots of these in Aus - I really struggled keeping a supercharged one behind me at Eastern Creek. All the gains I made through corners were immediately lost on the long start-finish straight.
It’s going to sound fantastic with the new exhaust. Post some sounds clips if you have an opportunity.

Will have a go if I can manage it. These are called Clubsport over there as you probably know. Mine is a meager 449.6 bhp with no charger.
I have only had subtle mods from Walkinshaw to inc OTR intake, remap trans, engine and new brakes.

Lovely car I would be cacking myself at the thought. I remember seeing him with one on Top Gear when they were produced and seeing it sideways :w00t:

Even without forced induction, that’s plenty. With, it must be a bit of a handful!
 
Our recent acquisition for baby-carrying duties since neither a Z4MC nor an E Class coupe are especially practical:

I can’t see why you a becoming nervous - I’d be scared witless.
Just hope that Hammond fella is on sick leave at the time.

335xd with all the toys.
It is a very capable car even in standard unmapped form and I dont really know what I could replace it with when the time comes.
4wd / 150mph / 50mpg if needed and only £155 Ved
Fast enough to give most performance cars a run for their money and without the show!
I've got a full set of winter wheels with Pirelli Sottozero so the Z4 goes into hibernation during the winter.

Very discrete ronk, looks good. It’s easy to underestimate the performance of modern turbo diesels due to the sheer torque available. Our F Pace has 700Nm and really doesn’t handle like a 1900kg truck. The shove in the back at full throttle surprises me every time!
 
Although I’m fortunate enough to have a daily company car, I’ve found myself tripping head over heels for this... picked up today and drive the 191 miles home to west Oxfordshire. What a joy the journey was! My folks had a 100 CS Quattro Avant when I was growing up, and this 200 has been for sale for a while and it really took my fancy. It’s in good condition already, but I have lots of subtle work and refreshing planned to create a real beauty. I understand why people love the RS2 when it comes to classic Audi’s, but for me this is the true grandad of fast four wheel drive estates/avants/tourers/etc. Would love to know if there’s any one else on here with a classic Audi hiding in the shadows 🙂
