What Retro Automatic Car Would You Buy

  1. 635 csi ... tasty. I do have a soft spot for the BMW 6-series.

    I remember years ago when you could by an XJS for the same price as what its next service would cost :formerhilarioussmiley:

  6. You talked me into it, Ron. Let's talk affordable figures : o D

    At least then I could start lording it over my sons - one has a 330, the other an M235. Little buggers.

  9. I recall you saying that you found Mini Clubmans intimidating, so you do.
     
  10. as much of a mini fan i was waaaay back then, i wouldn't encourage my kids to drive one. 30odd to the gallon, pumps out more hydrocarbons than it burns, hit a wall at sixty and you will never be found, and no bluetooth. gorra have bluetooth.

  13. Darwinian version of NCAP. If they make it to 30 and develop some driving skills then they are licenced to spawn the next generation of drivers.

    I actually think more chavs should be encouraged onto unlicenced cut-down stepthru bikes and into high-powered retro mantraps. Let's make some wiggle room.
