YUM!!!! My next door neighbour's oldest son has a Sierra Cosworth RS (not RS500) in black! It is pure sex on wheels!

I'm a closet Nissan fanboi

Not that anyone who knows me would say this is a secret...

Alfa Romeos (Owned 10), Fiats, Lancia's.

I do have a soft spot for new era Skodas tho....

I flirted with the idea of one of these (in RaceBlue/Wagon Spec):

But now will probably end up with one of these:

**Polyal** · 20-01-2011, 12:25 PM

Those skodas are awesome value for money, wouldn't hesitate to get the sporty wagon or the diesel.

Okay when I was about 12, I really really REALLY dreamed of having one of these puppies when I got my P's..... :P True...

Man has my taste in cars changed. I'd still love a pig off roader with lift kits and winch and road roaring tyres though. Just not a Feroza.

And I can confirm that two people can lift a Mini engine/box into the back of a trailer with only a small amount of grunting...

Wouldnt worry about the one if its been flooded, the Moke shells are galvanised.

back when a few of my mates were into four wheel driving i gave a fair bit of consideration to getting one of these (so versatile!).

think i said earlier in this thread that i was keen on a holden drover when in actual fact i actually meant the a suzuki stockman, probably the much much more ****weaker cousin to the car featured above. don't see too many of the stockman around down here.

disclaimer, disclaimer, disclaimer - no offence was intended to any party who may currently own a suzuki stockman, if it were practical i'd have one too. tue story.

When I was 16 i wanted a VX Calais (well it was a nice car back then)
Then I wanted a Jeep and rugged-it out with massive tyres, bars etc
Then I wanted a Liberty 1998 Bilstein edition
Then I wanted a 180SX
Then I wanted an AU XR6
Then I wanted an AU LTD
Then i got my BA Futura

and loved it!

Now all i want is mad JDM goodness - list goes something like Cefiro, Century, 300ZX, S30Z (Devil Z style), R32 GTR, 370Z, S14 200SX with a S15 front end conversion (looks so good done well)

But i've got a company car now so i'm going to get my bike license, buy a postie bike and either Rat-rod it or Cafe Racer the postie bike until i can afford something by Deus Ex Machina (mmmmm) - OR instead buy another Escort next year which is most probably what i'll do.

The R32 GTR is the only Skyline that has ever interested me and one id consider buying (Still am, only a GTR). That and the R35 but ill never own one of those

DBourne · 21-01-2011, 06:39 PM

One of my little secrets (since you mentioned the R35) is that I HATE the new R35 GTR.

Sure it's fast, but it has to be the geekiest car known to man.

The old 70's Landcruiser. Spent many hours in a mates tray back version as a young fella - the first 4wd burnout i'd seen - although not much smoke & didn't last long was still cool. I aquired a rough & ready petrol engined 79 shorty that i caned & bashed a bit over a couple of years. Excellent vehicles, reliable & great fun. After a few failed attempts we could even get the canoe from the roof into the water, get in & out without getting our feet wet, the first time the ground under the 1 1/2 of water wasn't quite as solid as we first thought & required a tow. Even used it to remove a trolley from a Kmart carpark i spied on a busy afternoon - unfortunately for the trolley it got very squashed between the steel bullbar & the block wall. It took Kmart about 10mins. before the call over the PA system, opps sorry mate & never returned to that shopping centre in the cruiser for a while.
