Motoring Icons

Surely this has to be up there

More expensive than an EType I believe back in the day so the people buying them new knew they were special and also a WRC car.

Sadly Phil I doubt the average man on the street would recognise it, let alone name the model.

Not everyone's cup of chai but I coveted one. Until I actually saw one. For some reason in pics they look sleek and low, in real life boxy and square... But the '59 is the pinnacle of finnacle.....

Model T Ford .... in black of course

No argument with this one

The Bimota Tesi (thesis in Italian) created to separate suspension from steering, a 100 year old problem with motorcycles.

Like it or loathe it, the Ducati 916 from last century must be one of the most iconic sports bikes of all time.

Nice bike, maybe gone a tad overboard with the stickers though !

What's to loathe about the 916? Unless you were Aaron Slight or John Kocinski, who only saw it from behind.

Once again no complaints with this one, despite popular culture not the first mass produced / production line methodology but certainly the one that took the process and made it work.

I generally don't do bikes but in my ideal man cave I have a large arched window and stood proud of place in that window is a 916 Ducati. If anyone has ever been to Jamie Porters Alfa Workshop he use to have one sat in his office - a truly beautiful thing

RR Silver Shadow (and the Bentley T Series) of 1965-80....









A bit too 'new money' may be...? Who cares, I'd love one.

I'd go with that as probably the first Rolls Royce for the non-gentry

I still have a magazine page of this bike. Had a base 748 for a while, as I couldn’t afford the 916 along with a lack of talent!

Simply stunning machines.

And the first to have a monocoque shell, a massive leap forward for Crewe
