Especially the SL rangeYou cannot beat a classic Mercedes, it’s just that beautiful simplicity about them that makes them stand out
I was unfortunately denied driving privileges when the F-Type was introduced so couldn't take one out for a test drive at the launch party. Know a couple of people who have had them and neither kept them for long for some reason.
Oh wow some great cars here!
I found the F type to look and sound better than it performed. It also wouldn’t fit in with my need for 4 doors. The M3 works better for me, but obviously not as sexy to look at.
[QUOTE="SAABs took part in rallyes, too. The handling was tricky, and this is how "Carlsson on the roof" became famous in the 60s ... ---]
Great pic and I have a soft spot for these Saabs, I had one in the mid-80s and started prepping it for rallying, which never happened as I ran out of money and got distracted. Left foot braking was the way forward, or rather sideways, in these!
A general Hello from me to the forum, this is my first post. Primarily I joined to learn and especially to get criticism, this site was recommended by a few people as being very constructive. I'll post some photos once I've passed the three posts rule and figured out how the site works.
I wonder if that MG suffers from having its blower cowled? All the ones I've seen (at classic/vintage motorsport events) have had them out in the open to keep them as cool as possible.
It's possible that it's a dummy housing but a little unlikely. You can usually hear the blower whining when the car's running, although it's not as loud as the 4 1/2 Bentleys!
That's a beauty, I'd love that.A few pix of an Alfa Giulia that I saw yesterday while walking through a nearby village.

I think I'd probably be hugely disappointed if I drove that, so wishing to own it is better. I am pretty spoilt with my M3, and have no intention od selling it, there's only really a 911 GTS that I'd want to replace it, and to be honest I'd rather spend the money on other things at the moment.Isn't it just. Bet it's a money pit too, if you need to use it every day.
I'd love an Alfa GTV, but I stand more chance of owning a Porsche 911 Targa (one of my dream cars) than I do one of those.
