if money was no question which car would be top of your list. ?

Recommended Posts

We all wouldnt mind winning the lottery but if you did which car would be on the top of your list. 

No hard decisions for me would be a Ruf 964 but a new one. 

I think one of these Ruf classic recreations included complete carbon shell and frame. 

700 plus bhp and over a 800 torque what a beast - you get the retro looks with crazy performance. 

Check out the store some of the RUF Speedlines- holy cow they are stunning - they even still make a clubsporrt steering wheel with Ruf logo - spunky spunky time. 

Here is UK RuF.  Have good luck exploring the site its magical 😄

Well, If it doesn't have to be a car (sorry), I'd love a Kawasaki H2R.  Do I have the talent to ride it to its full capacity? Hell no.

Do I love the fact that they looked at a 1000cc bike and thought - 'that needs a supercharger?' Oh hell yes!

Car wise,  that's trickier, but probably an AC Ace with a Bristol engine. Partly because my dad had one that I never saw because he sold it long before I was born, but mostly because I think the design is quite handsome.

Would have to be an ur Quattro for me, preferably a late RR engined one in zermatt silver or metallic blue.

 

Quite like a Bell Jetranger as well, but that’s a different matter!

Lancia Delta Integrale…I almost bought one twenty years ago, immaculate for 10K, would be worth at least three times that now, or I would have sold it nineteen years ago for 5K in desperation. I’m realistic too!!!

Am I been greedy you are all been very modest but if you won the euro millions it would be hard to spend  and thats after giving half to charity so you could sleep at night 🤣

I do know some of the UR Quattro can go for 300 k the short wheel base rallye ones. The one in white with the red and grey decals what a motor.

Also the Mercedes 190 e evolution holy shite what a unique looking beast.

If I hit the jack pot it would be something just like this from Ruf https://www.rufautomobile.co.uk/ruf-btr-porsche-930-turbo

For me I'm not an impractical supercar type fan (Lambo, Mclaren etc) and like everyday drive charm of a Porsche and Ruf version would be the icing on the cake as well. 

For more modest sums I think E30 325i M sport, any 911 pref air cooled, 944 turbo. Maybe something with an agricultural V8 but can't think what - don't like American - Jenson Interceptor maybe?

That is the one I would go for but in red they yellow bird recreation is just to scary proper widow maker but a legendary car that broke all sorts of records back in the day. 

To have a 964 with this.

I would take a Ruf over a singer to be honest they just dont have the heritage and I prefer the Ruf Germanic style. I would say the yellow bird recreation is probably double and more then the singer.  Although looking at the singer site they  could create your perfect 964 so would be a hard decision.

McLaren F1 (Mr Bean spec)..but aside from this probably the rarest iteration of a 911..probably a Singer or a timewarp 964RS

I think it would have to be a De Tomaso Pantera for me if it was a classic era car. If going a bit more modern, I’ve an itch to scratch with a Dodge Viper (SR II)

funny you mention the pantera - just watching some vids of old and modernised ones.  Stunning car

That and the new ferrari-engined lancia stratos.  i'd love to buy a kit car of one of these as i'd never be able to afford a real one!

Pantera is definitely up there for me! I get what you're saying about impractical, but surely that's the whole point of a supercar!? You won't be driving it every day anyway, you'd want something big, plush and comfortable like a Roller or Bentley as your day to day car. If I won the Euromillions, I'd have a Pantera, Lamborghini Diablo, Porsche 911 (993) Turbo, Lotus Esprit, Bentley Continental GT Mulliner, and something a bit more subtle like an Alfa Giulia or a Merc C63.

Huge fan of the looks of esprit here wedge porn and they run rings round most cars on B roads. 

interestingly you mention the Pantera - guess who is building the gearbox - Andre  Gemini Transmissions and I saw one in his workshop in Northampton . Pretty sre he mentioned 50 k lol .
