Choosing just one would be impossible for me, as there are lots I'd like to own: Interceptor, Gordon Keeble, XJS, Lagonda, Lotus Sunbeam, 3000E Capri etc etc. As  I'm not a collector or polisher into garage ornaments it would have to be on the button, ready to drive anywhere.

But, applying some filters; I'm not interested in convertibles, I do like big saloons, and Jaguars have always appealed. So, Series 1 XJ12 in an appropriate seventies pale colour.

For me, it has to be this




Either in XJ12 form or as my late father had it in Daimler Double six guise.

Yep , I have a huge soft spot for the XJ series preferably series 1 but all are beautiful.
So many cars to consider but these were always just beyond my financial reach which only added to their desirability .

 In the meantime I'll just have to rough it in this

Some nice cars, must admit if I won the lottery I would be building a massive garage and workshop to house my collection.

I would love a 6R4, Manta 400, Chevette HSR, Lotus Sunbeam, Lotus Carlton. Bowler Wildcat.

XJ220, Ferrari Daytona, Tesla, Aston Martin, S500 Merc,

A8 Quatro, Range Rover Sport,  Honda NSX, Lancia Rally,

F150 Pickup, Car Transporter

CBX1100, Z1300, BIG Quad Bike, V8 Dune/Sand Buggy . . . and a transit type van with FWD and auto box to drive to santa pod, with a Huuuuuge Twin Turbo V8 conversion to run it as a twin engined dragster ::)

The daft thing is I would just love a 24V Senator and a 3.2 Elite Omega Estate as daily runabouts.


Is it time to wake up yet.
