Ahhh forgot about that...Def top of the list...

just classics Adam, we need another list for modern cars don't think you can mix the two eras

what so the ferrari 288gto is not a classic? That was made in 1984-85, surely it is a classic?

Got BMW car mag today, buying guide on an e34 m5, they look tempting.

got to draw the line somewhere Adam, depends on your age I suppose, classic, modern classic, modern, if we had one list there would be too many cars to go on it.....

 

[GransportFan1]

spose, i still think it is a classic, i could not see myself owning 10 cars pre 1975 though. Lotus Cortina's look good fun, fetching good money now, 40k+

 

[Easyplan66]

could you really put a lotus cortina in with that bunch of cars, would look like a skip in comparison

hang on. wouldn't say a skip, have you ever seen one? they look a right laugh and most of them are all mint condition, also it would qualify for classic touring car racing.

A classic car is not just about looks though....A classic is all about waht it did to the market....was it a ground breaking car...did it step the game on.....

 

[GransportFan1]

it didn't really do either did it? but it is collectable, i mean it has to be considered a classic as like i said, they are fetching 40k or more.

 

[Andyk]

Its all about being collectable.......and that doesn't have to be about looks......

I agree with you Adam ground breaking car but do you really think this looks good !!!!!!!!!!

No better looking than an escort just fast.............

 

[Parisien]

and that doesn't have to be about looks......

But that certainly helps..............................

i dont think the cortina lotus looks great no, it was a touring car made road legal. It is a bit like the bmw m3 csl, looks nice but it is not pretty but it is a great car as well.

Agree Andrew....Not the best looking car of that time.....

 

[GransportFan1]

not the best looking Andy but there are many great cars that are not pretty.
