Petrol Heads thread.. Post a pic of your car!

Ok this is for people like myself who have an appreciation for great cars. I will post a pic of mine later on.

Question for everyone: Realistically speaking what car would you want? Obviously no Bugatti Veyrons or Ferrari F430's.... :D

In my case at this precise moment in time I want the older shape Honda Civic Type R.... 2001-2005 Shape. 190 Odd Brake Horse Power and it looks fantastic (IMO).....
 
I want an old mercedes - I think they look lovely :)

1980 R107 SL380-V8 (1980)

Here is a link of one I would like - I like the red colour to :)

Recent cars I would like an Audi TT Roadster - I think they look ggggggreat!!

I have never owned a car though - never been able to justify the price. Living smack bang in the middle of London basically - with good transport and shit.

I passed my test as soon as I could though.

atm - shitload of space, but eats gas like nothing

going for a new a-class or something like that soon.
 
2000 Ford Focus, 1.6 Zetec, have had it for 5 years, I love it, its not as quick as I would like, but I dont drive many miles a year, but when I do, it still handles supremely well. Kinda like this one below :

 
My car is not much to look at but it gets me and the family from A to B:

That sounded like a NICE car Mr Cave
Yes she was, 4000 miles on the clock when I got her, nice and clean, no added on crap. Had it tuned and derestricted. Proper re wire on the lights so no stick on Fog light, tiptronic gearbox was a dream.... had it as a second car for nearly 3 years, then she aqua planed into the back of someone at some lights :roll: :(

I can't drive, but if I did, realistically I'd like a Civic the same as DJ I think. Class cars.
 
I dont like the Arse on it. I still think Renaults Design department were smoking lots of weed and watching pornography which showed so much arse that they decided "I know.... how about a car we can all wank over!"

You are right though, thats a decent car to drive 1st time around. I drove a 1990 Mini Mayfair Automatic (which me and my old man converted to manual with a Metro Engine and Gearbox).... It went downhill from there UNTIL I got the MG :) Now I want the Type R as our 2nd car.

thanks doc!

i love it, mate! only had it a few weeks...

i used to have a limited edition golf vr6 highline. they only made them in purple and black, with matching leather interior. i had the purple one, but unfortunately, (or fortunately, depends how you look at it!) i wrote it off just before christmas, on my way home from work one evening...

always wanted an r32 and saying as i'm not too keen on the MKV just yet, the MKIV was the only way to go! default, they are 240bhp, but mine has been revo stage 2 tuned giving it an added 10% which takes it up to 265.

the sound is awesome and i often drive with the windows down just to listen to it! so impressive is the sound, that it was sound-tested (and appears) on the r32 in the juiced 2 video games! :p
