It's not just me then, there's something to be said for the older cars? In the Ferrari world there's a bit of a divide - mine is the last car developed under Enzo, no Traction control, no electronic suspension, the roof of the Spider is put up by hand, not even power steering. When LdM roof over the helm the cars got seriously high tech and are obviously faster. But to me the newer cars just lack some of the passion of the raw older ones. Same in other marques?

Absolutely, for me 911/912's should be pre impact (fat) bumpers with nice long bonnets..so early 70's. With a 73 RS "duck tail" being the holy grail being attainable by only the very wealthy...... Although I do admit the yuppy era 80's whale tale models of my childhood still hold a certain attraction in an silly excessive sort of way!!

The majority of my "old" cars have been aircooled VW campers (and a pick up), all pre 71 and as far back as 64.

That BMW is cool as f*** I'd love to have that:cool:


........... and I play Pings!!!!!
