Car Wants (maybe once, but now just anything Jim can find on the internet. 🙄)

I think the r8 still looks great. Not too flash but not ordinary.

The only things I don’t like about the Alfa is that it’s a 4 cyl. turbo and the interior is a bit :weary: Need to go look at some.

I think you should build a kit car. Just avoid the temptation to build in a stereo that doubles the weight of it!

Seriously, you have the skills to build it, you could clear out the garage and shove everything into storage, and then you could have a proper mad weekend car that is unlikely to depreciate much (?)

Why not?

It sounds immense every time it drives passed my house :).

Lol. Probably like the Fiat 500 Abarth that someone round here has - it does sound great! (unlike the Porsche 718/S, which sounds exactly a Subaru).

Another contender might be a 718 GTS.

With a pi for infotainment/dash/data-logging/engine management.

Maybe! Not sure I need any more projects, though.

Maybe the first three…

Yess! You can never have too much…

So your shortlist is the Audi or the Porsche. You won’t fit in the other two - not for any tolerable length of time. Not taking a pop, they’re wearable cars.

4C is for looking at, never read a good word about it as a driving experience. Which is a damn shame.

After a Porker you might find the 4C sounds a bit disappointing?

The R8 every time.

Left field choice.

Ugh! How Plebeian! A fucking Audi :poop: Only thing cuntier than a Poorsche.

This all of this!

But personally I would go for this one:

13 inch white wheels, red car no chrome, something around 250-300bhp, roll cage, no carpet, bucket seats and harnesses .

I’d like to drive one, but I don’t think I want to own such a thing.

This is what I think about the 911 post-1973. I’d love to own an Escort Mexico or RS1800.

Yes, we know you wish it was still 1973. You probably watch Life on Mars for the news. :rofl:

I hate you, bcos Now I know that this is A Thing, and if I sell the truck I can afford a Mk1 bodyshell and an engine from a donor car… :heart_eyes:

That nearly-finished red demonstrator… :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes:

Fit a roof rack and rally tyres and you can still carry all the Alpaca stuff* into the fields.

*I have no idea what stuff Alpacas need? Bales of BMP and the like, I expect.
