Our Cars (dream or actual)

I've always had a soft spot for old Scouts. My grandfather actually taught me how to drive his 1969 model.  It was avocado green with a white top running a 304 cubic inch V8 with a 3 speed manual transmission and it lacked both power steering and brakes.  It looked a lot like the one in the foreground:

Here are some other cool vintage ads:

Super cool!  I never see scouts around here in Alabama, but I did watch a video of one of the jalop guys who bought one and was fixing it up.

When I was in DFW this spring, it seemed a lot of the guys my age were trading in their kick ups for 10-20 year old LCs and LRs.  The pricing in Texas reflects such - hoping I can snag something over here before the prices increase in my neck of the woods!

Land Rover announced the Range Rover Reborn programme earlier this year, where you get an as-new three door model.

Unfortunately it'll cost you £135,000, about $200K. :o

I was looking more in the <10kUSD range lol [emoji23]

A few years back I had the chance to borrow the “company car” for a long weekend.

Of course at no point did I exceed the posted speed limit. And I definitely didn’t pull 1.0G of lateral acceleration inside a National Park.

Of course, you wouldn't have done anything remotely that fun stupid…..

[YesBlank]

The fastest speed I clocked in that GT-R wouldn’t have cracked the company top 10 if the rumors are to be believed.

[YesBlank]

Some Bentley Blue Train love:

When Land Rover discontinued the Defender, they forgot to do one last V8 version. They've just rectified that.

399 bhp, 380 lbs/ft torque, 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, and prices start at £150K. More at Top Gear.

@Giles you need to get one…

[Dion]

How about the new Bentley Bentayga V8 for some diversity in the garage? It starts at £136,200.

[Giles]

I need that like I need a dose of clap…..

[Seul]

Uglier front than the Jaguar S-Type, and that's saying something…

[organisys]

Bought a little run around.

A bit of tinkering on ride, handling and looks was needed…

Got an E30 a year and a half ago. It's my little weekender/project car.  I've been slowly fixing everything including converting the interior to OEM Uberkaro interior. Here are some pics:
