Re: Classic car hoarding ...........................
Interesting article Gaz. I have seen a few of the porsches on the East Anglia website as I often visit it to see what car are being sold and for what money. I was very tempted not so long ago with a Mercedes 500 sec coupe on their website, in my mind the prettiest merc made. Lovely sweeping lines of the coupe with the aggressive look of the front grill and bumpers. Plus like our coupes lots of electrics and leather. I will have one of these one day.

Re: Classic car hoarding ...........................
I always liked the 500SEC coupes too.
Cheaply available now, but 5ltr engine....
The one car i would still love to own is the BMW 635csi... 80`s Coupe with the sharkfront nose
Prefably one of the last `89 highline models

Re: Classic car hoarding ...........................
I agree with you on the BMW Deano. If I get my way I will have Frankfurt's finest. Perfect garage is to have my 820 coupe, Merc 500 SEC & the BMW 635 CSi
When I find the right property I will aim for this but would probably need to leave a small space for a bed and a desk for the divorce papers

Always grieved me when Clarkson trashed one and ground it into the floor, but then it grieved me when they trashed a Marina and then let Hammond run a Dolomite Sprint downhill and smash up every panel for 5 minutes of Top Gear TV genius but I digress

Dolomite Sprint.... Fantastic shape, one of the best `working class` sports cars of the 70`s

Re: Classic car hoarding ...........................
That was a pathetic thing they did. Was it up to £1500 they could spend?vito wrote:Agreed .................deano wrote:Having said that...

So spending that on a car that (at the time) required £5000 to get a good Sprint, what did they expect would happen? Same applies to the sd1 and the car that James May used, which was worth less, so he had what was portrayed as the best car.
Have not watched an episode since.
