1968 saw a few cheeky numbers: Lamborghini Espada, Maserati Indy, Plymouth Roadrunner ... But this shades it for me:

1965. Aston started building this car the week I was born. :)

I wish I was in such good shape.

I couldn't choose....1972 was a good year for cars as well as people being born

Aston Martin Vantage, Lancia Stratos, Maserati Merak & Mercedes W116 S Class.

1982 - I'd buy back the immaculate black Mk 1 Golf GTI my uncle bought new and had for 30 years.

My Grandmothers maiden name, she was one of 13 though.

The 1100 was launched in this year

1982 doesn't seem to be the best of years for cars..
Of course the idea of a brand new Ferrari 512BB is perfect and what id choose, even if I'd look pretty similar to someone buying a new Ferrari nearly a decade earlier.

If I had to choose a car that launched in 82.. That gets tricky.
A Westfield 11 would be pretty cool.
The Countach LP500 S launched in 82. I much prefer the BB though.
And it doesn't have a further 8 years of Lambo replacing it with a better one as they have a habit of doing...

Never been a fan of the 348 but saw one in Emblem late last year and it was better than I remembered.

I loved the back light cluster on them moving away from the classic round back lights (which I also loved) but hated the 80's slats down the doors.
